Intento Design Revenue and Competitors

Intento Design provides responsive technology for analog IP. The company was born from 25 years of research aimed at developing a new analog design methodology. This research resulted in an innovative EDA tool ID-Xplore to accelerate specification-driven design of analog circuits. ID-Xplore addresses a productivity gap inherent in the analog design by providing optimal DC bias and sizing through rapid simulation using novel graph-based technology. For complex analog designs, DC bias and sizing, a process which would normally take days or weeks, is completed within minutes. Designer can quickly focus on obtaining final performance optimization as well as completing system-level verification tasks. With ID-Xplore, true technology-independent design is possible. After the design is done once for a given technology, the designer can explore a range of other technologies very quickly. Migration tasks required are significantly reduced. ID-Xplore works with schematic-centric design flows, enabling designers to keep their current workflow intact. ID-Xplore addition IDX-PVT further accelerates analog design by automating the PVT corners analysis and verification. Intento Design introduced ID-Substrate, a sign-off and verification tool, in 2019. ID-Substrate detects parasitic effects that are normally not found before fabrication. The tool thoroughly checks all the layers of the substrate, and a designer has a chance to go back to the layout or even schematic and eliminate substrate failure risks before tape-out, while the cost is still insignificant. Indispensable for Smart Power ICs, ID-Substrate can also be used to verify if further area reduction is possible without inducing reliability risks. ID-Substrate new extension, IDS-NanoFitter, available in early 2021, eliminates the need for empirical measurements and test structures, making this tool set even more attractive for fabless and design houses and further accelerating time-to-market.
