Hardware

  • Intel Core or Xeon family CPU, or comparable AMD CPU
    • minimum 2 GHz, faster is recommended
    • minimum 6 MB Smart Cache, or AMD equivalent (more is recommended)
    • Multi-core processors are recommended because the modeling engine will build 3D models faster
  • 8 GB RAM (more is recommended)
  • A minimum of 5 GB disk drive available needed to complete the installation
  • 100 GB is recommended for saving model data
  • Graphics support for OpenGL version 2.0 or higher
  • Display set to 1024 x 768 minimum resolution, 32-bit color (the 3D Viewer will not work if the display is set to 16-bit)

Supported Operating Systems

  • Windows 10, 64-bit
  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and 7, 64-bit

MATLAB/Simulink compatibility:

  • MATLAB/Simulink R2019b to R2021b, Windows 64-bit only
  • MATLAB/Simulink R2020a to R2021b, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, 64-bit

Cadence required modules and compatibility on RHEL 6 and 7:

  • Virtuoso Schematic Editor and Analog Design Environment (ADE) 6.1.8, 64-bit only
