Synopsys and GLOBALFOUNDRIES Collaborate to Develop DesignWare IP for 22FDX Process
DesignWare Interface and Analog IP Enables Faster Time-to-Volume for Energy-Efficient IoT and Mobile SoCs
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. -- Sept. 20, 2017 -- Synopsys, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNPS) today announced its collaboration with GLOBALFOUNDRIES (GF) to develop DesignWare® IP, including PHYs for USB 3.1/3.0/2.0, USB-C 3.1/DisplayPort, PCI Express® 3.1/2.0 and HDMI 2.0 TX, as well as data converters, for GF's 22FDX® process technology. Synopsys DesignWare IP on the 22FDX process enables designers to implement the latest interface and analog IP standards in their system-on-chips (SoCs) on GF's 22-nm Fully-Depleted Silicon-On-Insulator (22FDX) technology that delivers 25 percent smaller die size and 40 percent lower power than 28-nm HKMG technologies. The collaboration extends Synopsys' history of successful IP development on GF's processes for small, energy-efficient IoT and mobile SoCs.
"GF and Synopsys share a long track record of delivering high-quality DesignWare IP on GF's processes, enabling volume production of millions of units," said Jai Durgam, vice president of design enablement at GF. "The combination of our 22FDX process with Synopsys' DesignWare interface and analog IP enables our mutual customers to meet compliance requirements as well as their performance, power and area targets with reduced risk and faster time-to-market."
"As a leading provider of physical IP, Synopsys continues to provide a broad portfolio of DesignWare IP in the latest process technologies to help designers achieve silicon success in low-power, high-performance applications," said John Koeter, vice president of marketing for IP at Synopsys. "By offering DesignWare IP for the 22FDX process, Synopsys enables designers to more easily meet their goals of creating differentiated products with less risk and faster time to volume production."
