Synopsys supplies full-stack chip design tools for Arm's AGI CPU

Synopsys said it worked with Arm on the AGI CPU, a data-center processor built on Arm Neoverse CSS V3, to tune its power, performance and efficiency. The toolset covers synthesis, physical verification, signoff timing, power integrity, simulation, emulation and prototyping, plus Synopsys interface IP. Arm's Mohamed Awad credited Synopsys design, IP and verification tools with supporting the chip's development.
