We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "ASIC software",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Synplicity shifts focus from ASIC design from
Synplicity, which we summarised at the time by saying "Synplicity is to refocus its R and D investment and headcount on its strategic growth opportunities in FPGA implementation and ASIC verification".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Samsung joins the Synplify ASIC fan club from
Synplicity: "Synplify ASIC synthesis software has been adopted by Samsung Electronics Co and may now be used by Samsung's ASIC customers".
In February 2004, we covered the news from Synplicity
concerning its Synplify ASIC
- take a look at Timing estimation to become placement aware
which says: "Synplicity is to offer timing estimation based on placement and automatic initial floorplanning as an alternative to traditional wireload model-based RTL synthesis in future releases of Synplify ASIC".
Take a look also at the news release from Synplicity, Sensitive approach enables tight timing closure,
as well as Rapid adoption for ASIC synthesis technology from Synplicity,
and Libraries ease switch to structured ASIC design from ChipX.
