Cadence Concept

What is Cadence Concept?

Cadence Concept, often referred to as Cadence Concept HDL, was an early hardware description language (HDL) simulator and logic synthesis tool. While now quite dated and largely superseded by more modern tools, it was used for designing and verifying digital circuits using HDLs like Verilog and VHDL. It allowed engineers to simulate their designs, perform logic synthesis to map HDL code to gate-level implementations, and conduct static timing analysis. It was a key part of the EDA (Electronic Design Automation) landscape in its time.
