The system is available in a deskside tower form and uses the high-end PA-8700 processor with expanded 2.25MB on-chip cache to minimize system latency and boost performance. The C3700 is ideal for MCAD and MCAE designers who look for power-user desktop performance for mid-range and large virtual prototyping, 3D modeling and analyses. The system can also provide EDA engineers with the memory capacity to do IC simulation and synthesis.
