Thalia's disruptive AI-powered layout automation software

Customers can now benefit not only from the ground-breaking Technology Analyser and Circuit Porting suite, as well as the Design Enabler (core), but also the Layout Automation (LA) software which is the final stage in the process of providing designs to the foundry.

The AMALIA LA software uses the source design's layout as the starting point and this unique approach facilitates the software to maintain the floorplan placement and preserves all intelligence generated on the existing IP through silicon validation. This is then tied with DR checks to ensure the final layout is DRC clean.

Sou Bennani-McCord, VP of Sales at Thalia, said: "Today is another milestone for Thalia as we introduce our final solution to complete the AMALIA flow allowing customers to take their existing IPs from process technology analysis, porting of schematics/test benches to verification including estimated parasitics, to migrating the layout in the target technology.

"What we have today is a complete end-to-end IP reuse/migration platform that is the most comprehensive on the market and offers our customers best-in-class IP reuse that is fast, cost-effective and accurate. We look forward to introducing the new LA tool to our existing customers this month before launching it to the broader market early next year."

The AMALIA 23.4 release includes other improvements to the platform such as enabling Key Device Identification to assist with meeting key design specifications in the AMALIA Design Enabler. It also includes DesignSync version control supporting customers' design workflow in AMALIA Circuit Porting.

AMALIA is Thalia's comprehensive end-to-end IP reuse software platform. Leveraging automation and AI/ML capabilities, it drastically reduces the complexity, cost and time traditionally associated with migrating and optimising existing applications. Customers can make use of a discrete component of the AMALIA platform or leverage the complete platform providing them flexibility in how to manage their design migration requirements.
