Key Semiconductor Design Software From Perforce

Here’s how tools from Perforce — Helix IPLM and Helix Core — solve challenges for leaders in semiconductor design.

IP Lifecycle Management

Helix IPLM ensures complete visibility into the state and usage of IP from the moment it enters the system until tapeout.

Helix IPLM supports:

  • Advanced tracking and management of the IP release flow across multiple projects.
  • Global workspace management.
  • IP bill of materials (BoM) management across the organization.

Design Data Management

Helix Core can handle the large number of files associated with IPs and analog chip design files.  That’s why companies like Samsung — and almost all of the leading companies using semiconductor design software — use Helix Core. It manages all files – regardless of type, size, and quantity.

With Helix IPLM and Helix Core, everything is automatically abstracted from the design teams. This creates a seamless IP catalog with all IP available on demand from a central location.

“Now it's easy for us to accomplish common storage tasks like volume expansion and backup. We don't have to pay someone else a fortune to do it."

— Kelly Alexander, Manager of Engineering Services at NVIDIA
