Virtual Silicon Teams With 1st Silicon for IP
SUNNYVALE, Calif.,--July 15, 2002 - Virtual Silicon Technology Inc., a leader in semiconductor intellectual property (SIP), has received an order from 1st Silicon, Malaysia's largest wafer foundry, to port its SIP to 1st Silicon's 0.18-micron process technology. The agreement covers Virtual Silicon's standard cell library as well as two I/O pad libraries.
"Virtual Silicon is one of the industry's well-known providers of quality SIP," said S.Y. Tan-Stahel, marketing vice president at 1st Silicon. "In addition to foundation IP, customers look to Virtual Silicon for a wide range of products including high-speed interface, PLL and memories. Our collaboration opens another gateway to foundry support for our customers."
"Adding 1st Silicon to our Foundry Sponsored IP Program opens a new level of opportunity for Virtual Silicon," said John A. Ford, vice president of marketing for Virtual Silicon. "We look forward to a continuing relationship with 1st Silicon in supporting our mutual customers' IP needs." The IP will be available for customer use beginning early fourth quarter.
