April 24th, 2018, Beijing, China - Synapsys (NASDAQ: SNPS), the global leader in software quality and security solutions, announced that the world’s largest supplier of chip design automation EDA software and the world’s largest chip interface IP provider , Already agreed with Arm, will continue to deepen cooperation and signed a multi-year subscription agreement. This subscription agreement gives Synopsys access to a wider range of Arm intellectual property (IP), enabling the use of ARM-based SoCs. Synopsys tools and methods are optimized. From April 25, 2018, Synopsys and Arm will hold a series of seminars around the world to share the design and verification brought by this agreement and the previously signed IP subscription agreement. The results of the cooperation.
The signing of this agreement allowed Synopsys to preempt Arm's Cortex CPU, Mali GPU, CoreLink system IP, Artisan physical IP and POPTM IP. This agreement is based on more than 25 years of collaboration between Arm and Synopsys. Enables Synopsys to further optimize its ARM-based SoC tool design flow, allowing designers to meet their power, performance, and area (PPA) goals while reducing product costs and time-to-market.
“We have been working closely with Synopsys for more than 25 years to help our customers achieve both performance and goals while at the same time significantly reducing design difficulty and time-to-market.” said Rene Haas, Executive Vice President and President of Arm IP Products. Through these years of long-term collaboration, we have been able to continue to provide eco-systems with highly efficient designs that implement and validate the solutions required by their SoCs'.
'Designers can profit directly from the alliance of industry IP leaders and EDA leaders', Synopsys president and co-CEO Chi-Foon Chan said, 'through the inclusion of automotive, AI, machine learning (ML), 5G wireless technology and Services are available in a wide range of market segments, including IoT, and our close collaboration with Arm provides solutions that enable leading semiconductor companies to accelerate innovation with the latest Synopsys tools and Arm IP.
The Arm-Synopsys Symposium At a series of worldwide seminars beginning on April 25, 2018 in Tokyo, Japan, participants will learn how Arm's cooperation with Synopsys can implement Arm-based CPUs, graphics cards, IoT and automotive Innovation. The in-depth implementation and validation process will be presented by Arm and Synopsys experts, ecosystem partners and users.
Topics of the workshop include: • Using Arm's Quick Model, Cycle Model, and Debugging Tools in Synopsys Tools to Accelerate Software Startup and System Verification • Optimize Arm-Based SoC Designs with Fusion Technology-Enabled Synopsys Design Platforms • Use the Latest Arm Cortex PPA Optimization with -A Processor and DynamIQTM Technology • Accelerated Power Supply Convergence with RedHawkTM Analysis Fusion in Synopsys' IC CompilerTM II Placement and Cabling Solution • Maximizes Investment in Verification with Synopsys Verification Continuum Platform response rate
