Magma Design Automation is one of the largest, fastest-growing providers of electronic design automation (EDA) software. Magma products are used by the world's major semiconductor manufacturers to design the most complex, high-performance integrated circuits being made today. The company was founded in 1997 – for some company milestones, see "Magma History" – on the concept of combining logic design and physical design into a single system to better address emerging deep submicron design challenges. Magma is also the first to combine analog and digital design into a single platform. Unlike other solutions, Magma tightly integrates mixed-signal implementation with digital implementation, circuit simulation, transistor-level extraction, and verification – providing a quantum leap in efficiency and productivity for analog designers.
To create and deliver the best EDA software products and solutions, encompassing IC design from concept to completion, enabling our customers' commercial success.
Magma licenses its design automation software to semiconductor manufacturers and electronic products companies around the world. Among them: Broadcom, LSI Logic, Marvell, NEC, NVIDIA, Qualcomm, Samsung, Texas Instruments and Toshiba.
Top semiconductor makers worldwide use Magma’s electronic design automation (EDA) software to produce chips for electronic applications including tablet computing devices, mobile devices such as smartphones, electronic games, digital video, networking, military/aerospace and memory. Magma products provide the "Fastest Path to Silicon”™ and include software for digital design, analog implementation, mixed-signal design, physical verification, circuit simulation, characterization and yield management. Key product lines include the Talus IC implementation system, the Titan custom/mixed-signal design platform, Tekton static timing analysis, FineSim circuit simulation and the Quartz physical verification products. Fab analysis products include Camelot and YieldManager.
Magma markets and supports its products through sales and support centers in North America, Europe, Japan, India and Asia-Pacific nations.
