Regarding Tool used for physical design

[mcschandru]

Hi,

Could you please tell me which tool I can use for physical design (Floor planning, Routing, Placement etc...).

I Downloaded Cadence tool Orcad Lite 16.6 (Capture CIS and PCB editor). Is that rite tool for this or do i have to download other tool.

i came to know Cadence (SOC Encounter, VoltageStorm, NanoRoute)
Synopsys (Design Compiler) are used but can u please check this out and if rite can I have the link to download the tool.

Thanks....

hi. As the name suggests, Capture CIS and PCB Editor are used to designing PCBs but Cadence SOC Encounter is used for designing chips.. For physical design, choose Cadence Encounter.

Also, can you tell me if you have the link to download the software - Cadence Encounter?
