Axis Systems' Xcite to Speed up Design Cycle for Toppan in Competitive Japanese Design Services Market
Sunnyvale, CA - March 25, 2003 - Axis Systems, Inc. today announced that Toppan Technical Design Center Co., Ltd. has acquired the Axis Xcite 2000 to speed the design cycle and expand design services in the Japanese market. The purchase follows the successful application of the Xcite 1000 in previous designs.
"As the size and complexity of SoCs continues to increase, more of the design is developed in software. As a result, the time needed for verification multiplies. However today's market demands that products be high quality and completed more quickly," said Noboru Suzuki, manager of Toppan's Asaka Design Center. "To attain these requirements, verification must be faster and encompass hardware and software co-verification. With Axis' advanced debugging and fast bring up time, we are able to complete verification in a shorter time and produce high quality designs that have given us an edge in the design services market."
"We are very pleased in Toppan's confidence in using Axis' solutions as a key technology in their business," said Kuniyoshi Hirayama, President of Axis Japan Co., Ltd. "As a leading design center, Toppan's selection of Axis as one of their differentiators is a significant endorsement of our approach to functional verification."
