Synopsys SpyGlass: Master Design Signoff for a Flawless Chip.
Gain expertise in the industry-standard tool for comprehensive design verification. Our program provides hands-on training to help you find and fix errors early in the design flow, ensuring first-pass success.
Why Master Synopsys SpyGlass?
SpyGlass is the industry-leading platform for early design signoff. Mastering this tool is essential for any professional looking to create robust, reliable, and high-quality digital designs.
Ensures Quality RTL Code
Learn to perform static verification on your RTL code, catching common and hard-to-find bugs before they propagate to later stages of the design flow.
Prevents CDC/RDC Issues
Go beyond simple linting. Our program teaches you how to identify and resolve complex Clock Domain Crossing (CDC) and Reset Domain Crossing (RDC) violations, which are major sources of chip failures.
Become an Industry Expert
Synopsys SpyGlass is the most widely used tool for early design signoff. Having expertise in it makes you an invaluable asset to any semiconductor company.
