EDA Academic Suite provides all the licenses necessary to learn all the essential EDA design functions typically found in a commercial design flow.
It enables a full design flow starting with front-end schematic capture and simulaton, through back-end layout design, DRC, LVS and finally to tapeout.
The design tools in the Academic Suite can be used with publically available high quality PDKs, downloadable from the Simucad website, www.simucad.com.
