CharacterCharacter Brings Simulation onto Cadence
Character, an information technology organization in the United States, uses Cerebrus from Cadence to support virtual testing for analysts and design leads.
Cerebrus sits in the daily path at Character, especially for analysts and design leads.
“Analysts and design leads needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.”
“Cadence Design Systems supplies computational software for integrated circuit, system, and PCB design used by electronics companies.”

Value results
| Category | Value result |
|---|---|
| Productivity | Fewer stalled items because simulation has a clear owner |
| Risk and compliance | Cerebrus is the governed place analysts and design leads use for virtual testing |
| Capability | New joiners can see how virtual testing actually runs |
Story
Inside Character, virtual testing used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in information technology groups working out of the United States. Analysts and design leads needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
Character uses Cerebrus from Cadence as the working layer for simulation. Cadence Design Systems supplies computational software for integrated circuit, system, and PCB design used by electronics companies. The practical change is simple: virtual testing has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What Character gets from Cadence is a durable place to run virtual testing and a way for analysts and design leads to see the same simulation at the same time.
