How MediaTek Runs Virtual Testing on Virtuoso
MediaTek, an information technology organization in Taiwan, uses Virtuoso from Cadence to support virtual testing for analysts and design leads.
Teams at MediaTek moved simulation onto Cadence after local tools started to collide.
“Information Technology work at MediaTek spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in Taiwan.”
“Analysts and design leads asked for a shared way to run virtual testing without freezing local judgment.”

Story
Information Technology work at MediaTek spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in Taiwan. Simulation was splitting across regional habits. Analysts and design leads asked for a shared way to run virtual testing without freezing local judgment.
Cadence (Virtuoso) is what they standardized on. Cadence Design Systems supplies computational software for integrated circuit, system, and PCB design used by electronics companies. MediaTek uses it as the system of record for simulation, with analysts and design leads as the primary operators and other groups coming in through the same queue.
Leaders get a picture they can actually walk. Teams get fewer mystery statuses. The story is about operating change, not an unpublished percentage.
