Carbon Design Systems is delivering a high-performance software environment that enables a system prototype to be rapidly assembled and functionally validated on the desktop months before the first semiconductors are actually manufactured. Carbon’s new approach shortens schedules and accelerates time-to-profit by enabling software validation to occur in parallel with hardware development. Problems can be found and resolved early in the design cycle—rather than waiting for FPGA prototypes to be built or silicon to be delivered. EDA Industry veteran Rick Lucier is CEO and Flagship Senior Partner Steve Ricci is on the Board.
