Morgan Hill, California - January 7, 2003. OEA International announces a long-term license agreement with Sun Microsystems, Inc. that provides Sun with worldwide access to OEA's electronic design automation (EDA) software products. OEA software is designed for high accuracy 3D extraction, planning and signal integrity of on-chip and package interconnect. OEA products have lead the industry in supporting the complexities of DSM and nanometer technologies with, for example, on-chip inductance support in 1993.
"Timing for certain sets of critical nets demand the accuracy that OEA provides", said Ron Melanson, Vice President of Engineering at Sun Microsystems, Inc. "Since the late eighties, Sun Microsystems has used OEA's products to extract accurate parasitics for calculating interconnect delays and clock skews."
"Sun has been a major OEA customer that works closely with us to enhance the software for performance and to optimize the features that enable the software to handle the latest technology and advanced design problems," said Jerry Tallinger, VP, Marketing and Sales at OEA International, Inc. "This deal demonstrates Sun's confidence in OEA's ability to lead the way in providing the next generation solutions for Sun."
OEA currently has eleven product offerings based on OEA's proprietary fast 3D field solver technology. They cover a wide breadth of design planning, extraction, and signal integrity applications including: critical net planning, post-layout extraction; power distribution network planning and post-layout IR drop and electromigration analysis: package analysis; and RF component synthesis, design, and analysis.
