SAN JOSE, CA. -- Jan 27, 2003 -- Atrenta Inc, the Predictive Analysis Company, announced that its award-winning SpyGlass Predictive Analyzer tool has been selected by EDN magazine as one of the Top 100 products for 2002. SpyGlass was chosen from a field of thousands of electronic products and technologies for recognition in the Electronic Design Automation (EDA) category. Every year, EDN magazine picks 100 truly innovative and exciting products to which its readers respond "in a really big way". The list is published in its December 12, 2002 issue and is currently available on the EDN Access web site (www.ednmag.com).
EDN wrote, "Thousands of new electronic products come along every year. All, no doubt, are useful, and many are innovative, yet only a relative few generate real excitement." These exciting products are selected as top products of the year. The EDN Top 100 Products list includes products ranging from components, analog ICs, software, power sources, peripherals, processors, computers and many other categories of electronic equipment.
"We are honored to be selected as one of the top 100 products by a premier electronics trade magazine," said Dr. Ajoy Bose, CEO and President of Atrenta Inc. This recognition by EDN's editorial staff is further validation of SpyGlass' value in solving a major challenge in designing complex SoCs. Over 50 of the world's leading electronics companies are using SpyGlass to catch complex design problems and process flow issues early in the design cycle, where those issues can be addressed quickly, saving expensive revisions later."
