Dolphin Integration delivers new releases of its EDA solutions for front-end design: the schematic editor SLED and the mixed-signal simulator SMASH. SLED enables designers to graphically capture and configure their designs. The flexibility of the schematic editor SLED offers the possibility to design true mixed-signal circuits as well as multi-level and multi-physics systems.

For each process node and variant, foundries provide a Process Design Kit (PDK) containing all the files needed for front-end and back-end design. To assist in the integration of PDK files relevant for front-end design, SLED 2.4 delivers a PDK import feature enabling fast and easy generation of a SLED front-end PDK. SLED 2.4 also delivers ergonomic and ease of use enhancements to constantly improve the overall user experience and productivity.

SMASH is renowned in the analogue design community as a state-of-the art mixed-signal simulator with multi-language and multi-level simulation capabilities. Thanks to a new analogue solver, SMASH 6.4 shortens simulations of large analogue circuits from weeks to days. Loading of logic circuits is up to two times faster than previously thanks to the integration of a new compiler. 

SMASH 6.4 also delivers long-awaited features such magnetising of waveforms for easy viewing of signal characteristics, continuing transient simulation even after the initial end time has been reached, as well as user friendly IDE enhancements to constantly improve the overall user experience and productivity.
