OneSpin Solutions, Oasys Design Systems Ink OEM Agreement
OneSpin Solutions and Oasys Design Systems today announced they have signed an original equipment manufacturer agreement. Under terms of the agreement, OneSpin is licensing a portion of its OneSpin 360 EC technology, automated functional equivalence checking software, to Oasys to integrate with its RealTime Designer physical RTL synthesis software.
More“Oasys Design Systems is working on solving some of the most difficult IC design problems and making great strides,” says Dr. Raik Brinkmann, OneSpin Solutions’ president and chief executive officer. “We’re delighted to partner with Oasys, knowing that the OneSpin EC technology will be part of its solution. Design teams should be pleased with the result, improved user productivity and faster runtime.”
Scott Seaton, Oasys’ president and CEO, adds: “We have developed a close working relationship with OneSpin. Together, we are bundling equivalence checking with our next-generation physical RTL synthesis into an effective solution for a range of design environments.”
The OneSpin/Oasys partnership spans a number of years, beginning in 2010 when Oasys began using OneSpin 360 EC-ASIC during the development of RealTime Designer. OneSpin 360 EC-ASIC is being used for synthesis verification, comparing two representations of the same design before and after synthesis to ensure functional equivalence. Oasys enhanced the interface between the tools and demonstrated a compelling solution. A prototype is currently in beta development.
The OneSpin Product Family will be demonstrated February 26-27, from 3:30 p.m. until 6:30 p.m. at DVCon 2013 at the Doubletree Hotel in San Jose, Calif.
