The company will also adopt the Internet address www.ChipEstimate.com that was launched in 2005. That site delivers a unified web location to the industry for streamlined access to information on semiconductor intellectual property (IP) and process options, and the ability to include selected IP in project plans and perform chip estimations. ChipEstimate.com serves over 5,000 licensees who in aggregate have performed 30,000 chip estimations with the company's InCyte software since the website launch. ChipEstimate.com will continue to offer access to integrated chip project planning solutions, and will now also serve as the corporate website.

The company also develops enterprise chip planning and specification systems used by leading IDM and ASIC companies. The enterprise systems allow customers to add proprietary IP and process technologies and refine cost estimates throughout chip implementation flows.

About Chip Estimate Corporation

Chip Estimate Corporation is a privately funded EDA company that serves the interests of the IC design community by enabling accurate estimation of both chip functionality and cost at the IC specification stage, before a chip design begins. The company develops and markets the InCyte chip estimation tool, into which it integrates IP and manufacturing process models for the most accurate estimation of production chip cost. InCyte performs estimations of chip die size, power, leakage, yield, and cost and allows for rapid "what if" analysis at the architectural level in the design flow. Chip Estimate Corp. partners with leading IP vendors and semiconductor manufacturers who share our mission of early and accurate assessment of IP for our mutual customers' design success.
