Realtek Semiconductor Corp. Selects Forte's SystemC High-Level Synthesis, Floating Point IP Software for SoC Design
Thorough Evaluation Confirms Tools Improve Quality of Results, Turnaround Time
SAN JOSE, CALIF. –– May 5, 2011 –– Realtek Semiconductor Corp. of Hsinchu, Taiwan, has selected high-level synthesis (HLS) software and floating point intellectual property (IP) from Forte Design Systems™ for the design and development of systems on chip (SoCs) for communications network, computer peripheral and multimedia applications.
Forte’s Cynthesizer™ SystemC high-level synthesis software and CellMath™ were purchased after a thorough evaluation because they improved overall quality of results (QoR) and turnaround time (TAT) on Realtek’s initial designs. CellMath’s support for floating-point datatypes was also cited by Realtek as a reason for choosing Forte Design Systems as its HLS vendor.
“Forte’s tools offer many important advantages to our design team, allowing us to reduce our floating point hardware design time and significantly improve time-to-market,” notes Jessy Chen, Realtek’s vice president and spokesman. “We were impressed by Cynthesizer’s capabilities, CellMath’s support for floating-point datatypes, and Forte’s extensive expertise in design with high-level synthesis.”
Brett Cline, Forte’s vice president of marketing and sales, says: “We’re delighted to have the opportunity to work with a company pioneering and developing many of today’s breakthrough high-tech applications. Realtek’s cutting edge designs demand the improved productivity and quality of results of a new level of abstraction using high-level synthesis.”
