PGC Adopts S2C's FPGA-based ESL Tools to Streamline Front-End Design Service Flow
By adopting S2C’s FPGA-based ESL tool flow, PGC can systematically assist customers to first transform their design specifications on FPGA prototypes. PGC’s customers will have a clear design sign-off point that serves to maintain design integrity through to first silicon. Early implementation of IC designs onto FPGA prototype also allows customers to engage in software development while PGC prepares the design for foundry processes. The overall design service environment is thus streamlined to minimize potential correlation problems between front-end and back-end design processes and reduce time to working SoC or ASIC in the end system.
“After surveying our options among FPGA prototyping vendors, we selected S2C’s Virtex-5 TAI Logic Module to anchor our front-end design platform due to its high product reliability, ease of use, and competitive cost. S2C’s FPGA-based ESL software further speeds up design mapping onto FPGA prototype and enables delivery of IP securely in FPGA-based form,” said Albert Hu, General Manager of PGC. “PGC is now proud to provide a robust SoC design and prototyping flow to our front-end design service customers.”
“PGC is a respected firm with significant experience in taking SoC and ASIC designs of all shapes and sizes to tapeout,” said Mon-Ren Chene, Chief Technology Officer of S2C. “We are delighted that PGC has recognized our FPGA-based ESL tools’ quality and versatility, and chosen them to extend PGC’s depth in providing a full range of SoC design turnkey services.”
