SAN JOSE, Calif - Oct 3, 2012 - Atrenta Inc., a leading provider
of SoC Realization solutions for the semiconductor and consumer electronics
industries, announced today that its products took three of the top five
positions in the
popular DeepChip DAC User Survey. The survey, conducted by John Cooley and
published on the DeepChip portal, summarizes user inputs regarding the top
products at
DAC. This year's survey included detailed responses from 178 EDA tool
users.
The #1 product area in this user survey was RTL
power reduction, and prominently
included in the user discussion was Atrenta's SpyGlass Power product.
SpyGlass Power verifies, analyzes and optimizes SoC power consumption at
the register
transfer level (RTL) of abstraction.
IP reuse took
the #2 place in the survey, and Atrenta's IP Kit and GenSys products received
positive comments from user respondents.
Taking the #5 place in the user survey were bughunters and BugScope received
a substantial number of positive user comments. BugScope is developed
by NextOp Software, which was recently acquired
by Atrenta.
"I am delighted to see three of the top five categories in the DeepChip
DAC User Survey focused on Atrenta core competencies - RTL design and
IP reuse," said
Ajoy Bose, chairman, president and CEO at Atrenta. "The many positive
user comments about BugScope validate our recent acquisition as well. The
user community
has spoken – RTL design, verification and IP reuse are gaining importance
and Atrenta is in the middle of this trend."
"Going into DAC, it was clear
that RTL power was a hot topic, and it took the #1 spot on my Cheesy
Must See List before the show," said John Cooley,
founder and moderator of the DeepChip portal. "Users have commented
that 9 - 16 percent power reduction is possible with SpyGlass Power - the
highest numbers posted. The ability to take CPF/UPF power intent into account
while reducing
power was cited as unique and important, too."
