Many of you already received communications about the move of the Cadence user community into cadence.com. And many of you have already joined, with over 4000 registrations in the first two weeks.

The new Cadence Community enhances the ability of Cadence users to connect and collaborate. In addition to moving the community into cadence.com -- enabling single sign-on for community, Sourcelink and Cadence events -- the new site is organized around nine technology segments, giving you easy access to product information, training, forums and blogs. Some of the new features include:
  • Ability to respond to posts via e-mail
  • Technology-specific blogs
  • Latest Web 2.0 social networking capabilities
  • Public profile options
  • Private messaging
  • Friends lists
Visit the new Cadence Community today at www.cadence.com/community and join the discussions!

Registration note: Due to the scope of the enhancements and the new SSO registration system, we were not able to migrate existing cdnusers.org member accounts. So new registrations are required, but this enables a broader set of functionality we think you'll enjoy.

Forum note: Under the guidance of forum moderators, we have taken the 20+ cdnusers.org forums and consolidated them into 11 forums on the new site. Posts have been brought over so you can leverage that posting history. CDNusers forums will be set to read only starting 7/30, and cdnusers.org will be redirected to the new community on 8/4.

Best regards,
Mike and Tom

hi, ALL:


I got 2 questions recently.

1. When I am using 'optDesign -si -setup -postRoute', I found that SOCE just use 'launchChild' command to call 'CeltIC', then load the attacker-victim file. Then encounter will use 'fixGlitchVio' and other commands to fix SI & CrossTalk. This is the case for setup (worst) corner SI & crosstalk fix. But how can encounter fix the hold violation with minus crosstalk delta delay? By using incr SDF or something? I am using SOCE52.

2. Can I set different derating factors for best and worst corners, for example, 1.0, 0.9 for worst corner, 1.0, 1.1 for best corner. So I should use multi-corner feature in SOCE. Can SOCE52 do this?


Many thanks!

Migrating to MMMC, even with only a single setup and single hold view, would help with both of these issues. If you're able to, I'd recommend migrating to a more recent version- 7.1 if possible. MMMC support is not available in 5.2. I believe it was first introduced in 6.1.

Thanks,
Bob
