Abstract :
DFM/DFY has been recently touted as the high growth salvation of the EDA industry and it future direction. At present, DFM is heavily focused on the POST data creation correction of design data in a primitive level soft IP based SOC flow. The reality of the semiconductor community is they are shifting to a yield predictable, systems based hard megacell IP based SOC flow.
