NEC Electronics America and Synplicity to Co-Host Seminar on
Structured ASICs and Amplify ISSP Software Attendees Invited to
Learn the Latest on Structured ASIC Hardware/Software and Attend
Free Twins Game at the Metrodome SANTA CLARA, Calif. and SUNNYVALE,
Calif., Aug. 25 /PRNewswire/ -- NEC Electronics America, Inc., a
leading provider of differentiated semiconductor solutions, and
Synplicity Inc. (NASDAQ:SYNP), a leading supplier of software for
the design and verification of semiconductors, today announced they
will co-host a seminar in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on September 16
to provide insight into structured ASICs, a rapidly growing
alternative to cell-based ASICs and FPGAs for designers working
with low- to mid-volume applications. The seminar, titled "Hit a
Homerun with ISSP Structured ASICs: Your Turnaround Time Advantage
from 150 to 90nm," will feature NEC Electronics' structured ASIC
architecture, Instant Silicon Solution Platform(TM) (ISSP(TM)), and
Synplicity's customized Amplify(R) ISSP tool. The two companies
will demonstrate how the ISSP architecture combined with an
ISSP-customized synthesis tool such as Amplify ISSP enables
designers to reduce design risk, nonrecurring engineering (NRE)
costs and time to market. Also participating in the seminar will be
Minneapolis-based North Pole Engineering (NPE). NPE will present
the overall ISSP design flow, demonstrating how the company's
expertise in front-end design for ASICs helps to enable quicker
tape-outs by providing a smoother hand-off to back-end design
companies. The seminar will be followed by a question and answer
(Q&A) session and a ballpark-style dinner reception with live
demonstrations of the Amplify ISSP software. Attendees are also
invited to join sponsors NEC Electronics America, Synplicity, North
Pole Engineering and Matrix Marketing Group in Diamond View seats
at the Minnesota Twins/Chicago White Sox game immediately following
the reception. What: NEC Electronics America/Synplicity seminar:
