Design and Product Replication

Reliability Services and IP Archiving

Rochester’s replication process results in a minimally modified source GDS2  

that is DRC clean for a target fab where a commercially available close process node  

has been targeted using spice analysis and cross-sectional analysis on the OCM product.

•  Netlist-based new layout, new 

technology, or new timing

•  Synthesis from RTL re-targeting

•  Emulation of a product

•  Identical die size with same physical structures on the die

•  Same edge rates, same power, same voltage, same package

•  100% software compatibility with no errata

•  Authorized and enabled by the original semiconductor company

•  A drop-in replacement for the customer
