Goyatek Picks Incentia's DesignCraft for Synthesis; Fast Runtime & Performance Results Critical for Semiconductor IP Development
SANTA CLARA, Calif. & HSINCHU, Taiwan—(BUSINESS WIRE)—June 3, 2004—
Incentia Design Systems, Inc., an EDA company in the
synthesis and timing market, and Goyatek Technology Inc., a leading
ASIC design services and Intellectual Property (IP) provider and
member of the Design Center Alliance (DCA) program of Taiwan
Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Ltd. (TSMC), today announced that
Goyatek selected Incentia's DesignCraft(R) for the logic synthesis of
its USB 2.0 device controller IP design.
"Offering our customers competitive and complete IP solutions that
meet their performance requirements is one of our most important
goals," said Nai Yin Sung, R&D Div. Director of Goyatek. "With
Incentia's DesignCraft, we completed our USB 2.0 Device Controller
design on our first try. We are very pleased that DesignCraft reduced
our runtime significantly and achieved a smaller area usage than our
previous USB designs, while meeting our timing constraints."
"Goyatek is one of the leading design services and IP providers
using TSMC process," said Ihao Chen, President & CEO of Incentia. "We
are pleased that they have successfully used DesignCraft, to complete
their USB design and meet their customers' performance specs."
About Goyatek's USB 2.0 Device Controller IP
Goyatek's USB 2.0 Device Controller IP is highly configurable. It
can be programmed for different transfer modes, such as control
transfer, bulk transfer, interrupt transfer and isochronous transfer.
Its applications include file transfer, human interfaces and video or
audio products. It supports 8 bits/16 bits MCU, Direct Memory Access
(DMA) for asynchronous data transfer and Fast Memory Access (FMA) for
synchronous data transfer. Goyatek has completed the functional
verification of this IP together with its USB 2.0 Transceiver IP,
which passed the USB 2.0 Peripherals Device High Speed Certification
from the USB Implementers Forum (USB-IF). Together, they provide
customers with a total solution for development of their own
USB-related products.
Incentia's Synthesis and Timing Software Products
Incentia offers three major products for synthesis and timing
analysis. TimeCraft(R) is a full-chip, gate-level static timing
analyzer, offering fast analysis speed for timing sign-off and
Engineering Change Orders (ECOs). DesignCraft is a logic synthesis
tool with datapath, test and low power options. DesignCraft Pro(TM) is
a physical synthesis tool that solves timing closure and issues and
shortens turnaround time. All products are based upon a unified timing
engine and database and address the ever growing design requirements
of speed, performance and capacity.
