SAN JOSE -- Shocking Technologies will integrate its VSD technology into Cadence's Allegro products, a move said to enable designers to embed global ESD protection into printed circuit boards and semiconductor packages.

“Shocking is very excited that Cadence has agreed to work with us and enable our customers to easily implement this blanket ESD solution,” said Lex Kosowsky Shocking’s President and CEO. “We believe that incorporation of VSD materials will eventually become a ubiquitous part of building a PCB or semiconductor package.”

“Customers will now have access to custom design rules that assist in mitigating the dangers of electrostatic discharge while optimizing designs,” said Steven Kamin, Group Director of Allegro Product Marketing at Cadence.
