Beceem Communications has achieved first-pass silicon success on a multimillion-gate, low-power Mobile WiMAX design using Blast Create, Blast Fusion , Blast Plan Pro, Blast Power and Blast Noise electronic design automation software. Beceem cellular carrier customers are already testing samples of Mobile WiMAX ICs in their next-generation systems.

Magma’s software concurrently address timing, power, area and noise and incorporates key capabilities, such as design-for-test (DFT) insertion and a sign-off-quality timing, into a single environment. With its integrated RTL-to-GDSII flow, Beceem was able to implement and sign-off on the design 30 percent faster.
