THE PLL-NATIVE EDA PLATFORM

Design the perfect PLL.
Automatically.

From specification to optimized, verified and production-ready PLL IP — dramatically reducing design time while improving performance, power and silicon confidence.

PLLFORGE
One intelligent flow

Specification in. Silicon out.

Replace weeks of manual exploration with a physics-aware design and optimization loop built specifically for PLLs.

1

Specify

Enter frequency, jitter, phase noise, power, area, process and application requirements.

2

Architect

Explore Ring, LC, ADPLL, Fractional-N and other architectures and select the best candidate.

3

Optimize

Automatically tune circuit parameters against jitter, power, area, lock time and performance.

4

Verify

Run PVT, Monte Carlo, phase-noise, jitter, spur and post-layout verification.

5

Generate

Produce production-ready IP packages with GDSII, models, documentation and testbenches.

A PLL engineer's control center

Let the platform search the design space.

Engineers define what matters. The platform explores how to achieve it.

Built for silicon

Not just automation. A learning loop.

Every design, simulation, tapeout and measured silicon result can improve future predictions and optimization.

⚙️

Physics-aware

Combine circuit theory, analytical models and SPICE rather than treating the PLL as a black box.

🧠

Intelligent optimization

Use surrogate models and multi-objective search to reduce expensive simulation cycles.

Silicon feedback

Measured silicon can be compared with simulation and fed back into the platform.

Reusable IP

Turn validated designs into a growing portfolio of production-ready PLL and clocking IP.

THE FUTURE OF PLL DESIGN

Build faster. Optimize deeper. Ship with confidence.

We are building the design intelligence layer for PLLs and next-generation clocking IP.
