Abstract

The design quality of modern chips depends on the quality of the EDA tools used in the design flow. With the evolution of nanotechnologies new EDA tools are needed. Some trends on EDA to cope with the evolution of manufacturing processes will be presented. An important set of EDA tools nowadays are the ones to reduce power consumption at all levels of design abstraction. Power Optimization is fundamental in the IoT world. At logic and physical level, it is needed to reduce the transistor count to reduce leakage power. Also, the use of estimation tools and visualization tools are more and more important in modern design flows.
