Synopsys Releases CODE V 11.0 with New SpecBuilder and SpecEvaluator Tools

Latest Release Helps Optical Designers Build Project Specifications and Manage Design and Performance Goals

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., March 6, 2017 — (PRNewswire) —

Highlights:

Synopsys, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNPS) today announced version 11.0 of its CODE V® optical design software with the new SpecBuilder™ and SpecEvaluator™ tools to provide a streamlined, structured approach to defining and monitoring optical specifications and requirements. Optical system designers typically use a table of specs and goals to describe the requirements and design objectives for an optical system. In CODE V release 11.0, designers can use the SpecBuilder tool to create a comprehensive table of specs and goals tailored to their application. Then, at any point in the design cycle, designers can use the SpecEvaluator tool to instantly analyze the optical system and identify areas that do not meet performance requirements or other parameters.

"CODE V SpecBuilder and SpecEvaluator tools support the overall goal of ensuring that an optical design meets specifications," said George Bayz, vice president and general manager of Synopsys' Optical Solutions Group. "The tools help minimize project costs by providing optical designers with in-depth understanding of design performance prior to prototyping and fabrication."

CODE V SpecBuilder

Simple and intuitive, the CODE V SpecBuilder tool lets designers quickly build a complete set of optical design project specs and goals.

CODE V SpecEvaluator

The CODE V SpecEvaluator tool allows designers to instantly assess an optical system design versus project specs and performance goals.

"As a freelance optical designer working under deadline pressures, it is essential for me to quickly and continuously verify that my current design meets my client's specification," said Rainer Jetter, president of Jetter-Optikentwicklung. "The CODE V SpecBuilder tool is ideal for this verification. When I start my design, I define the specification in SpecBuilder. Then, throughout the design evolution, I simply click the SpecEvaluator button to obtain a rapid evaluation of the current design state and assurance that my design is on the right track."
