Embedded System Design

Scale Without Sacrificing Security or Quality

Solve complex embedded development and IC design challenges with a centralized, integrated design collaboration platform.

Scale High-Quality Design Securely & Globally

Design Data Management for Complex Systems

Transform your development with high-performance design data management for complex semiconductor and embedded systems design.

  • Easily manage the millions of files that are common in EDA tools with endless scalability.
  • Scale infrastructure to support globally distributed teams with a powerful caching and replication architecture that is unmatched in the industry.
  • Protect and reuse your most valuable data and intellectual property while ensuring security down to the file level.

Effortless IP Management and Collaboration

Tame design complexity with an IP management and collaboration platform that tracks IP and its metadata across projects for end-to-end traceability.

  • Streamline design efforts with seamless coordination across teams and projects.
  • Achieve end-to-end traceability to ensure regulatory compliance and gain visibility into the cross-project impact of known issues.
  • Find and reuse IP more effectively to reduce rework and accelerate design.

Seamless Integration with Analog Design Environments

Access the benefits of design data and configuration management within your existing analog design environment.

  • Eliminate versioning issues and reduce design errors by easily identifying and communicating changes.
  • Bring higher quality products to market more quickly by enabling effective design block reuse.
  • Quickly bootstrap new projects by streamlining configuration and workspace management.

Automated Code Quality & Reliability for Embedded Systems

Ensure secure, safe, reliable, maintainable, high-quality code with automated quality and reliability issue detection for embedded systems written in C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, Python, and Kotlin programming languages.

  • Boast high accuracy and precision to find more problems with fewer false positives.
  • Achieve high code quality with metrics such as cyclomatic complexity.
  • Find, fix, and resolve issues before the code review phase.

Streamlined Compliance with Industry Standards

Ensure compliance to rigorous coding, industry, functional safety, and security standards and guidelines with certified solutions that make it easy.

  • Monitor, manage, report, and track project technical debt and compliance gaps across the enterprise.
  • Customize to your own internal standards.
  • Enforce safety, security, and quality coding standards across your codebase.

Automated Security Testing for DevSecOps

Automate security testing for DevSecOps teams by integrating with CI/CD tools, containers, cloud services, and machine provisioning, and ensure compliance to standards such as CWE, OWASP, CERT, PCI DSS, DISA STIG, and ISO/IEC TS 17961.

  • Detect security vulnerabilities including SQL Injection, Tainted Data, Buffer Overflow, and Vulnerable Coding Practices.
  • Detect bugs and quality issues such as null pointer deferences/exceptions, memory/resource leaks, and uncaught exceptions.
  • Find and fix security issues early in the software development lifecycle, saving time and resources.
