NVIDIA Selects Talus IC Platform for 45nm Chips

[erek]

Older, but relevent news.

Magma Design Automation Inc. has announced that NVIDIA Corporation standardised on Magma's Talus IC implementation software for design of 45-nanometer (nm) integrated circuits. NVIDIA selected Talus because it offers advanced capabilities for addressing 45-nm design challenges, supporting leading edge 45-nm routing rule and extraction, low-power design and large, high-utilisation macro-rich designs. "NVIDIA produces some of the world's largest designs at advanced process nodes, and the success of these designs is dependent on meeting very tight time-to-market demands," said David Dumoulin, director of Engineering at NVIDIA. "Because of this, improving our overall design quality is important. The Talus platform, which provides unique integrated features that directly address our 45-nm design challenges, allows us to significantly accelerate design optimisation to achieve better quality of results."

This is definitely interesting news, but I feel that it is too old to be moved to the front page. I will move it to General Graphics instead.
