Unified verification flow takes higher ground

Abstract

The latter is supported by what Cadence calls "Acceleration-on-- Demand." Three flavors of the Incisive platform are offered, beginning with a software-only unified Incisive simulator (one-year licenses start at $27,000). The next level is Incisive-XLD, a package that provides the runtime option of using up to 10 seats of Incisive or as many as 1 million gates of acceleration capacity (pricing starts at $200,000). Acceleration is hosted on a local or remote Cadence Palladium accelerator/emulator.
