Renesas Electronics (TSE: 6723), a global provider of semiconductor solutions, today announced a partnership with Altium, LLC, a global software vendor based in San Diego, California, to standardize the development of all printed circuit board (PCB) designs on the cloud-based platform Altium 365.
Renesas currently employs multiple PCB design tools company-wide, in part because the different businesses it has acquired over the past few years have brought their own legacy software to the company. As Renesas integrates components from different product groups into system solutions as "successful product portfolios," a unified PCB design tool will simplify board design for demonstrating and evaluating these "successful product portfolios" as well as all other product suites. This reduces design complexity, improves system cost structure, and speeds time to market. Renesas' "Success Portfolio" is an engineering-proven solution that integrates embedded processing, analog, power and connectivity products, allowing customers to use this high-level platform to implement design concepts, shorten product development cycles and reduce the overall risk of bringing designs to market. Renesas now offers more than 400 Success Portfolios to a wide range of customers and markets. Altium 365 is the ideal cloud-based PCB design platform. With Altium 365, users are able to collaborate with design stakeholders and other participants while securing IP and keeping designs under version control. Users can organize designs, libraries, and participants in one location, while sharing design links for real-time collaboration. Data can be stored and accessed online with the unique CAD Intelligence feature. Renesas will publish ECAD libraries for all its products to the Altium Public Vault, and with features such as Manufacturer Component Search on Altium 365, customers can select Renesas components directly from the Altium library to reduce time-to-market. Renesas is committed to digital transformation and streamlining our customers' design processes," said Chris Allexandre, SVP, CSMO and Head of Global Sales and Marketing Division, Renesas Electronics. "The ECAD tool migration is an important step in our development process and we look forward to a lasting and deep strategic relationship with Altium. " This migration is closely aligned with Renesas' solutions and digital strategy, which involves rapid access to the Internet of Things and other strategic initiatives," said DK Singh, vice president of Renesas Electronics' Systems and Solutions Division. This alignment of development workflows will enable internal global collaboration and make it easier for customers to integrate Renesas' products and solutions into their systems." At the same time, Renesas will continue to bring full support to customers using ECAD design platforms other than Altium, as well as providing ECAD libraries for other ECAD tools based on customer needs. Renesas is strengthening its relationship with Altium while taking a number of approaches to enhance the company's broader and deeper market strategy. This unification of ECAD tools is the first step. Renesas is one of the true leaders in the semiconductor business, with one of the industry's broadest product portfolios and a worldwide design organization," said Marc Boonen, Altium's chief commercial officer. We are proud that Renesas has chosen Altium 365 as its platform of choice for PCB tools and look forward to working together to create high-quality, integrated solutions faster and at a lower cost than ever before."
