Whois & Analysis for synopsys.com

Synopsys, Inc., an American company, is the leading company by sales in the Electronic Design Automation industry.

Synopsys' first and best-known product is Design Compiler, a logic-synthesis tool.

Synopsys offers a wide range of other products used in the design of an application-specific integrated circuit.

Products include logic synthesis, behavioral synthesis, place and route, static timing analysis, formal verification, HDL (SystemC, SystemVerilog/Verilog, VHDL) simulators as well as transistor-level circuit simulation.

The simulators include development and debugging environments which assist in the design of the logic for chips and computer systems.

Digital integration is the idea that data or information on any given electronic device can be read or manipulated by another device using a standard format.

An integrated circuit or monolithic integrated circuit (also referred to as an IC, a chip, or a microchip) is a set of electronic circuits on one small flat piece (or "chip") of semiconductor material, normally silicon.

The integration of large numbers of tiny transistors into a small chip resulted in circuits that are orders of magnitude smaller, cheaper, and faster than those constructed of discrete electronic components.

The IC's mass production capability, reliability and building-block approach to circuit design ensured the rapid adoption of standardized ICs in place of designs using discrete transistors.

ICs are now used in virtually all electronic equipment and have revolutionized the world of electronics.

Computers, mobile phones, and other digital home appliances are now inextricable parts of the structure of modern societies, made possible by the small size and low cost of ICs.

Electronic design automation (EDA), also referred to as electronic computer-aided design (ECAD), is a category of software tools for designing electronic systems such as integrated circuits and printed circuit boards.

The tools work together in a design flow that chip designers use to design and analyze entire semiconductor chips.

Since a modern semiconductor chip can have billions of components, EDA tools are essential for their design.

Application security encompasses measures taken throughout the code's life-cycle to prevent gaps in the security policy of an application or the underlying system (vulnerabilities) through flaws in the design, development, deployment, upgrade, or maintenance or database of the application.
