Media Alert: Cadence to Showcase Signal Integrity Solutions for System-Level, Power-Aware Multi-Gigabit Interface Compliance at DesignCon 2016

SAN JOSE, Calif., Jan. 13, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: CDNS) today announced plans to exhibit its latest Sigrity™ signal analysis and power integrity technologies for system-level, power-aware multi-gigabit interface compliance during this year's DesignCon at booth 515 from January 19 to 21, 2016, in Santa Clara, Calif.

Cadence also plans to demonstrate the latest multi-link and multi-protocol PHY for PCI Express® (PCIe®) 4.0 to address the requirements of the datacenter, server and storage markets. This next-generation PHY provides the flexibility of mixing networking protocols with a single macro and offers long reach and high-power efficiency for green datacenters.

To register for the conference, visit www.designcon.com/santaclara/registration.

WHAT:
The following demonstrations are scheduled for the show:

• Constraint-driven power integrity design and analysis featuring decoupling capacitor (decap) placement guidance and design rule check (DRC) markers located where IR drop is not within pre-defined specifications
• Power-aware memory interface design and analysis of the latest DDR and LPDDR interfaces
• Multi-gigabit serial link design and analysis featuring compliance tests for PCIe, MIPI and USB
• PCIe 4.0 multi-link and multi-protocol PHY to address requirements of the datacenter, server and storage markets
