About VC SpyGlass IDC

VC SpyGlass™ IDC is built on the highly scalable VC SpyGlass RTL Signoff platform. It addresses the challenging issue of verifying register optimizations in system-on-chip (SoC) designs. Traditional implementation tools list optimized registers without explaining the reasoning, causing designers to spend months identifying root causes. This solution provides an early-stage, comprehensive methodology for flagging registers likely to be optimized during synthesis. By enabling high debug productivity and identifying potential logic congestion early, VC SpyGlass helps streamline the design cycle and prevent costly respins, ensuring more predictable and efficient design outcomes.
