Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
SEGMENT REPORTING SEGMENT REPORTING
Segment reporting is based on the “management approach,” following the method that management organizes the company’s reportable segments for which separate financial information is made available to, and evaluated regularly by, the chief operating decision maker in allocating resources and in assessing performance. Cadence operates as one operating segment. Cadence’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is its CEO. The CODM makes decisions on resource allocation and assesses performance of the business based on Cadence’s consolidated results, including net income.
For additional information on Cadence’s revenue, including the nature and timing of revenue from contracts with customers, see Note 3 in the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements.
