Designing integrated circuits is a time-consuming and resource-intensive process. Micronas’ engineers use a variety of powerful software tools, including graphically intensive interactive layout tools, such as Custom Compiler from Synopsys, to help design and test its products. Providing the necessary computer processing power with the fastest possible data access is a priority for Micronas to ensure research and development (R&D) times are kept to a minimum. Many of the engineers traditionally used Linux® workstations at their desks, requiring fast, local area network (LAN) access to the servers.
