Multiple Arteris IP FlexNoC Interconnect Licenses Purchased by VeriSilicon for Multiple Chip Designs

Silicon Platform as a Service (SiPaas®) pioneer standardizes on Arteris interconnect IP

CAMPBELL, Calif. –April 30, 2019– Arteris IP, the world’s leading supplier of innovative, silicon-proven network-on-chip (NoC) interconnect semiconductor intellectual property, today announced that VeriSilicon has licensed Arteris FlexNoC interconnect IP as the on-chip communications backbone for use in multiple chips developed by the VeriSilicon team.

This license is a follow-on to the previous multi-use FlexNoC interconnect license announced in March 2018.

“We have chosen to standardize on Arteris FlexNoC for our chip designs’ interconnect IP because we have found that it reduces our development time while allowing us to more easily implement more complex SoCs than was possible with older interconnect technologies,” said Wayne Dai, Chairman, President and CEO of VeriSilicon. “Using Arteris IP allows us to add value to our designs which increases the benefits we deliver to our customers, differentiates us from our competitors, and increases margins for both us and our customers. Arteris IP delivers win-win results.”

“VeriSilicon’s large scale adoption of Arteris IP technology proves the importance of interconnect in the design and development of today’s SoCs,” said K. Charles Janac, President and CEO of Arteris IP. “Arteris IP is the leading IP company continually providing unique on-chip interconnect technologies that simplify and accelerate our customers’ implementation of tomorrow’s semiconductor technologies.”
