SkyCadEda: Scripting the Future of EDA

SkyCadEda (also known as SkyCAD EDA, SkyCad, or CadEDA) is a semiconductor EDA automation and product company headquartered in Bangalore, India. Founded by engineers with deep expertise in Cadence Virtuoso, SKILL scripting, and physical verification, SkyCadEda delivers services and software products that accelerate custom IC design flows. Under the Stabie-Soft brand, SkyCadEda builds the SLAM suite — Slam-Edit for layout editing, Slam-View for layout review, Scheture for schematic capture, and Secours for design recovery — giving foundry and fabless teams integrated tools for the full custom IC lifecycle.

Engagement focus

  • Faster tape-out cycles through automated EDA flows and SKILL scripting by SkyCadEda engineers.
  • Production-ready PDK and verification infrastructure delivered by SkyCadEda with full documentation.
  • Integrated custom IC tooling through the Stabie-Soft SLAM suite — Slam-Edit, Slam-View, Scheture, and Secours.
  • Reduced IP porting risk with SkyCadEda layout migration expertise across advanced process nodes.

Capabilities

Engineering scope

01

Cadence SKILL Scripting & EDA Automation

SkyCadEda specializes in Cadence SKILL scripting, Synopsys Tcl/Tk automation, and Python-based EDA flow development. SkyCadEda engineers build custom SKILL routines for Virtuoso, automate PCELL generation, create interactive SKILL forms, and integrate EDA tools into streamlined design flows that reduce manual effort and cycle time.

02

PDK Setup & Physical Verification

SkyCadEda provides foundry PDK setup, DRC/LVS rule deck enablement, and physical verification closure services. Whether you are bringing up a new process node or migrating an existing PDK, SkyCadEda ensures your Calibre, Pegasus, or Assura verification flow is production-ready with accurate rule decks and comprehensive sign-off documentation.

03

Stabie-Soft SLAM Product Suite

Stabie-Soft, the product division of SkyCadEda, develops SLAM — a suite of custom IC design tools. Slam-Edit is a GDS/OASIS layout editor with parametric editing and DRC-aware features. Slam-View provides fast layout visualization and review. Scheture offers schematic capture with Verilog/CDL/SPICE netlist translation. Secours enables design database recovery and repair.

04

Layout Automation & IP Porting

SkyCadEda delivers layout automation services including constraint-driven layout generation, parameterized cell development, and layout migration across process nodes. SkyCadEda also provides IP porting services to retarget analog and mixed-signal IP from one foundry process to another while maintaining performance and DRC compliance.

Company Overview

SkyCadEda PVT LTD was founded with a mission to bridge the gap between semiconductor design ambition and EDA tool capability. Based in Bangalore — India's Silicon Valley — SkyCadEda has grown into a trusted partner for foundry and fabless semiconductor companies worldwide. The SkyCadEda team combines deep Cadence Virtuoso expertise, SKILL programming mastery, and physical verification knowledge to deliver automation that measurably reduces design cycle time and tape-out risk.

SkyCadEda operates under two complementary divisions: SkyCadEda Services for EDA automation, SKILL scripting, and verification enablement; and Stabie-Soft Products for the SLAM suite of custom IC design tools. This dual focus allows SkyCadEda to address both the tool-gap and process-gap challenges that semiconductor design teams face daily.

Team Expertise

The SkyCadEda engineering team brings decades of collective experience in custom IC design, EDA tool development, and semiconductor CAD infrastructure. SkyCadEda engineers are proficient in Cadence SKILL, Synopsys Tcl/Tk, Python, Perl, and shell scripting for EDA flow automation. The team holds expertise across advanced process nodes from 180nm to 3nm, covering analog, mixed-signal, RF, and custom digital IC design methodologies.

Technology Stack

SkyCadEda works across the full semiconductor EDA technology stack: Cadence Virtuoso, Innovus, and Pegasus; Synopsys IC Compiler, StarRC, and HSPICE; Siemens Calibre for DRC/LVS; and the Stabie-Soft SLAM suite (Slam-Edit, Slam-View, Scheture, Secours) for independent custom IC tooling. SkyCadEda automation is built on SKILL, Tcl/Tk, Python, and C/C++ with deployment across Linux-based CAD environments.

Delivery Model

SkyCadEda operates a flexible delivery model tailored to each engagement. For EDA automation projects, SkyCadEda provides dedicated engineers who embed within client teams and deliver production-quality SKILL scripts, Tcl/Tk automation, and verification infrastructure. For Stabie-Soft SLAM product deployments, SkyCadEda offers evaluation, licensing, installation, training, and ongoing technical support. Whether you need a single SKILL script, a full PDK enablement, or enterprise-wide SLAM deployment, SkyCadEda scales to match your project requirements and timeline.
