Adventures in EDA Land

How EDA and Disneyland May Have More In Common Than You Think

by Amelia Dalton

Did you ever consider that EDA is a lot like Disneyland? I know it may sound a little kooky but check out this week’s Fish Fry to find out more! I interview Shawn McCloud (Vice President of Marketing - Calypto Design Services) about Catapult-C’s transition to Calypto, the ambiguous nature of the term ESL, and what Calypto brings to the EDA party.  Also this week, I interview Shishpal Rawat (Accellera Chair) about why it's important to have IP standards and where he sees  IP and system design standards headed.

I've got a special twist for you in this week's Nerdy Giveaway, but you’ll have to tune in to see what it is and how to win.

Disneyland is like EDA? Yes, really. They share more in common that you think. In this week's Fish Fry, I check out Catapult-C's move to Calypto and where IP and system design standards are headed in the future. The real question is: Where is the happiest place on Earth? Disneyland or EDALand?

Hello Amelia,
For the pinball fan, there is the perfect guide:

Whether it is just nostalgia or you actually want to start a collection...
Now the pinball machine themselves maybe out of price, this guide fits about in the budget of $25.
