Hi friends,
I am planing to buy VLSI tools for my college. I have few doubts in selecting the tools as per the ASIC Flow. I need the list of tools that suits the ASIC flow in both synopsys, cadence, Mentor Graphics etc...
It would be nice if you are able to list tools from RTL Coding to Fab.

Best tool is Cadence SOC Encounter GXL.
It has complete RTL to GDSII flow

Other options include Magma Talus RTL to GDSII flow, Synopsys Lynx

Just go to the respective websites and download their datasheets and compare ur requirement

Importanat thing is all the softwares are very costly. It will be nothing less than INR 50-75 L
