Synopsys, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNPS) today announced its collaboration
with Intel to achieve successful system-level interoperability
between the Synopsys DesignWare Controller and PHY IP for PCI Express 5.0 and future Intel Xeon
Scalable processors (codename Sapphire Rapids). The full-system
interoperability, a key milestone in Synopsys and Intel's ongoing
collaboration, enables the ecosystem to confidently use the
companies' proven technologies to accelerate development of their
PCIe 5.0-based products in high-performance computing and AI
applications. The DesignWare IP for PCI Express 5.0 has been
licensed over a hundred times by customers across all key market
segments, delivering the lowest latency and highest throughput IP
compared to other solutions in the industry.
"Synopsys continues to collaborate with industry leaders like
Intel to deliver high-quality IP that help designers address the
bandwidth, power, area, and latency demands for the new era of
high-performance computing systems," said John Koeter, senior vice president of marketing
and strategy for IP at Synopsys. "Achieving successful
interoperability between Synopsys' DesignWare IP for PCIe 5.0 and
Intel Xeon Scalable processors validates that the IP functions as
intended with Intel's industry-standard PCIe 5.0 products,
accelerating the path to first-silicon success with less risk."
"The growth of high-performance computing applications converged
with AI workloads requires innovative data connectivity and
processing technologies that deliver low latency and fast speeds,"
said Jim Pappas, Director of
Technology Initiatives at Intel. "We are pleased to collaborate
with Synopsys, a leading provider of PCIe IP, to enable the
ecosystem and ensure the widely adopted DesignWare IP for PCI
Express 5.0 is interoperable with our future CPUs in order to
enable the billions of PCIe-enabled products in the market."
