The conference provides an open forum for users to gain expertise using Magma systems and to exchange ideas about, and solutions for, the challenges of deep submicron integrated circuit (IC) and system-on-chip (SoC) design.
The conference will also feature an exposition where Magma partners will exhibit products and services that are complementary to Magma offerings. Attendees will be able to talk directly with Magma partners about design, flow and integration solutions. The Fusion user group conference is open to all Magma customer companies.
User papers include:
- A Successful SOC Hierarchical Design Flow With Blast Fusion
- Using Architectural Synthesis to Dramatically Reduce the Time From C++ Algorithms To GDSII
- Methodology for Reducing Signal Integrity Effects and Optimizing Time-To-Tape Out
- Pushing the Boundaries of Deep Submicron, High Speed, High Density, Flat Chip Design Using Blast Fusion
Magma tutorials include:
- Beyond Timing Constraints: Tools for Timing Correctness
- An SOC Design Methodology Using Blast Plan and Blast Fusion
- Maximizing Runtime, Capacity and Quality of Results
- Noise Avoidance Using Blast Noise
Luncheon keynotes will be presented by:

About Magma Design Automation (www.magma-da.com)
Magma software is used to design fast, multimillion-gate integrated circuits, enabling chip designers to reduce the time required to produce complex ICs. Magma's products for prototyping, synthesis, and place & route provide a single executable for RTL-to-GDSII chip design. The company's Blast FusionTM, Blast Chip®, Blast PlanTM, Blast Noise® and Blast PrototypeTM products utilize Magma's proprietary FixedTiming® methodology and single data model architecture to reduce the timing-closure iterations often required between the logic and physical processes in conventional IC design flows. Magma's Diamond SITM also leverages the single data model architecture to provide an integrated, standalone platform for post-layout, sign-off-quality signal integrity verification.
Magma maintains headquarters in Cupertino, Calif., as well as sales and support facilities in Silicon Valley, Los Angeles, Orange County and San Diego, Calif.; Boston, Mass.; Durham, N.C.; Laurys Station, Pa.; Austin and Dallas, Texas; Newcastle, Wash.; and in Canada, Germany, Israel, Japan, Korea, The Netherlands, Taiwan and the United Kingdom. The company's stock trades on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol LAVA.
