EDA TOKENS
Remix All EDA Tools in Real Time

EDA Tokens - Provide instant access to all tools without re-issuing licenses. Each tool draws a toolspecifi c number of tokens from a universal token pool. When a tool is no longer in use, its tokens are automatically returned to the pool for immediate re-use by any tool.

Tokens are purchased on a yearly basis to match ongoing software needs. Peak demand can be accommodated by supplementing the existing token pool with additional tokens purchased on a daily basis. Tokens can be shared between all company locations worldwide. EDA tokens provide an unprecedented Return on Investment (ROI).

EDA Token Based Licensing - Remix in Real Time

The revolutionary new token-based EDA software licensing technology is designed to provide users the flexibility and freedom with unlimited and cost-effective access to all EDA tools. Users can create their own customized design fl ow and modify the mix of tools in real time as needed.

The Problem

Until now, customers were unable to get the highest return on EDA tool investments when EDA licenses were idle for most of the time. The same tools had to be re-purchased in different time zones to equip worldwide design centers. Most EDA vendors did not easily accommodate peak demand licensing. Customers typically had to wait until the end of the quarter before remixing licenses. Unprecedented ROI

The Solution

• EDA Token Based Licensing enables a team of IC designers to continue checking out any listed Simucad product until purchased EDA tokens are all allocated
• EDA Tokens can be used world-wide by checking them out over your wide area network
• EDA Tokens can co-exist with perpetual and term-based licensing
• Software tools are available on Red Hat Linux, Solaris, and Windows platforms
• Fixed annual fee for each EDA token
• Peak tool demand easily accommodated by daily token purchased
• Real time reporting of token utilization
• Scale investment with design team growth: purchase more tokens when they are needed
• Software maintenance and support included for all products

Unprecedented ROI

Company EDA investment is now no longer wasted in sporadically-used tools that would otherwise continuously cost money even when idle.

Terms

EDA Tokens are sold on a yearly basis, and include support and software updates. Peak demand daily tokens are available for purchase to meet short term additional capacity needs (e.g., for tapeout).
