MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.,
Oct 28, 2019 /PRNewswire/ --
Highlights:
- DesignWare Controller and PHY IP
for PCI Express and LPDDR accelerates development of the advanced
data flow processor-based SoC
- Embedded Memories and Logic Libraries offer options for
high-temperature PVT corners for superior, power, performance, and
area
- STAR Memory System and STAR Hierarchical System helps allow
efficient test, repair, and diagnostics of embedded memories
Synopsys, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNPS) today announced that NSITEXE,
a Denso Group Company, achieved first-pass silicon success for its
high-performance Data Flow Processor (DFP)-based SoC test chip
using Synopsys' DesignWare® Interface and Foundation IP
portfolios. With Synopsys' silicon-proven DesignWare IP, NSITEXE
met the advanced functionality, processing, performance, and
testability requirements of its DFP-based SoC. NSITEXE's
DFP-based SoC combines both a CPU and a GPU to process large and
complex datasets for parallel data management with power-efficient
parallelism and quality.
"To implement state-of-the-art capabilities in our SoC, we
needed a broad range of IP that met our aggressive power,
performance, and area requirements," said Hideki Sugimoto, chief technology officer at
NSITEXE. "After evaluating Synopsys' comprehensive portfolio of
interface IP, we were confident that with Synopsys' high-quality
DesignWare IP we are able to accelerate our project schedule and
achieve first-pass silicon success."
Synopsys' silicon-proven DesignWare IP for PCI Express 3.0
delivers low latency and high performance for efficient system
throughput in advanced designs. The robust architecture of the
DesignWare LPDDR4 IP enables fast access to the DRAM with high data
bandwidth and low power. The DesignWare Embedded Memories and Logic
Libraries deliver the industry's only foundation IP solution to
offer options for high-temperature process, voltage, and
temperature (PVT) corners, enabling designers to achieve the best
combination of performance, power, and area. For comprehensive test
coverage, Synopsys' STAR Hierarchical System and STAR Memory System
initialize the LPDDR PHY and perform high-quality user-programmable
tests on the external memory and interconnect. The STAR
Hierarchical System's Measurement Unit performs accurate on-chip
characterization for critical phase-locked-loop (PLL) clock
measurement without the need for additional fractional PLLs or
high-frequency clock sources.
"SoCs for advanced applications are growing in complexity and
require a range of IP to implement the necessary functionality,"
said John Koeter, vice president of
marketing for IP at Synopsys. "By providing the industry's broadest
IP portfolio, Synopsys is enabling innovative companies like
NSITEXE to meet their advanced design needs, while accelerating the
development of their automotive SoCs."
