STKM2000 SERIES
Customer design interface
SGS-THOMSON Micorelectronics has developed
several interfaces for customers giving them easy
and flexible design approaches for STKM2000.
Users can access Analog Design System (A.D.S.):
q via SGS-THOMSON design centers
q via SGS-THOMSON associated design centers
q via CAE workstations
CAE worstation capabilities are under
development on:
q Dazix System
q Mentor Graphics
q Sun
In that case,direct interfaces will be offered in order
to make design implementation with A.D.S. (layout
and test generations).
According to these design possibilities,
SGS- THOMSON defines 3 main interfaces.
Figure 4 outlines these interfaces. Each interface
details the responsibilities of customer and
SGS-THOMSON during circuit development flow.
