Denali Software Announces Availability of MMAV 2008 Verification IP

New Models for Latest Memory Technologies Plus Advanced Features and Support for Standard Protocols Increases Productivity and Minimizes Design Risks

SUNNYVALE, Calif. -- May 22, 2008 -- Denali Software, Inc., a world-leading provider of electronic design automation (EDA) software and intellectual property (IP), today announced the availability of the new MMAV 2008 packaging, the most widely-used memory verification IP product. Denali's MMAV has become an industry-standard solution for verifying memory interfaces and ensuring system correctness. This latest package release provides a complete and an accurate solution for simulating memories, including support for most of the memory technologies, including DRAM, SRAM, Flash, and Card memories, and several standard protocols. Verification engineers can utilize MMAV memory verification IP early on in their design cycles, minimizing the risks of non-compliance and ensuring chip success.

"Denali continues to strive to deliver the highest-quality of simulation models for cutting-edge memory technologies," remarks Sanjiv Kumar, manager, Verification Products at Denali Software. "Our tens of thousands of pre-verified memory models support various parts from all major memory vendors and deliver the best quality and reliability needed for our customers' system memory requirements. The advanced MMAV architecture allows seamless integration with different verification methodologies like eRM, VMM, OVM, etc."

MMAV 20008 can be utilized for cutting-edge memory technologies and provides new simulation models for mobile DDR (LPDDR), mobile DDR2, ONFi, GDDR4/5, eSD, eMMC and also for SystemRDL, DFI, AMBA (AXI, APB, AHB), and OCP protocols. Additional new advanced features found in MMAV 2008 includes transaction callback, assertions report generation, and error configurability. PureView, a supporting MMAV product, incorporates Blueprint Compiler technology, which generates necessary outputs and views for design, verification, documentation, software development, post silicon debug and even enables early software development with SystemC(TM) Transaction Level models. For an overview on MMAV 2008 and its new advanced verification techniques, stop by to speak to our experts at the Denali booth (#1611) at the Design Automation Conference (DAC) in Anaheim, CA., during June 9-12, or register now for an in-depth presentation and hands-on tutorial, "Increase Your Productivity with High Quality Memory Verification IP," at MemCon San Jose, on Monday, July 21, 2008.
