Wintegra Selects Denali's Verification Software for Design of Next-Generation Access Processors

Denali’s MMAV IP Product Used for DDR Memory System Verification

PALO ALTO, Calif. -- October 9, 2006 -- Denali Software, Inc., a world-leading provider of electronic design automation (EDA) software and intellectual property (IP), today announced that Wintegra™, a leading provider of access processing semiconductors, utilized its MMAV™ verification intellectual property (VIP) software for their next generation of WinPath2 family of devices.

Wintegra used MMAV within its design flow for modeling and simulating the interactions between its WinPath chips and external memory devices for design verification and performance analysis.

This new WinPath2 family of devices extends Wintegra’s performance and integration while leveraging their broad portfolio of production-ready software supplied with the devices.

MMAV enhances verification by enabling designers to observe and operate on system-level data transactions during simulation, which optimizes design simulation and accelerates the overall verification process.

“Wintegra customers are faced with challenging design specifications for today’s programmable multi-protocol networking solutions and in the Service Provider access equipment market,” Yoram Yeivin, Vice President of Engineering at Wintegra. “Utilizing Denali’s MMAV we were able to accelerate our time-to-market by verifying our DDR memory system quickly and deliver high-quality WinPath2 processors.”

“Denali understands Wintegra’s needs to provide a robust, high-performance solution to meet the specific requirements of the networking equipment market,” said David Lin, Vice President of IP Products at Denali. “By providing Wintegra with memory system verification software, we are helping them continue to meet their rigorous standards for quality and performance.”
