ADVISORY/Synplicity Hosts FPGA Physical Synthesis and ASIC Verification Technical NetSeminars.Business Editors and High Tech Writers ADVISORY...for Thursday and Tuesday (March 1 and 6) --(BUSINESS WIRE) WHAT: Synplicity, Inc. invites you to participate in two upcoming free Penton Media/ENEN NetSeminars. Physical Synthesis for Programmable Logic See PLD. : The first event, titled "High-Performance Programmable Logic Through Physical Synthesis," is intended for designers of Altera and Xilinx programmable logic devices who need to achieve the best possible circuit performance. The seminar will provide an overview of physical synthesis, and will highlight a physical synthesis design methodology using Synplicity's Amplify(TM) Physical Optimizer(TM) to achieve high performance in complex PLDs.
WHEN: Thursday, March 1, 2001
8:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. PST
5:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. PST
ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) Pronounced "a-sick." A chip that is custom designed for a specific application rather than a general-purpose chip such as a microprocessor. Verification: The second event, titled "Enabling First-Pass Verification Success of Complex ASICs with Early and Rapid Prototyping Building a part one layer at a time using a method of additive fabrication such as 3D printing. Such parts are used for concept modeling to determine if the product design meets the customer's expectations. ," is intended for designers of complex ASICs and SoCs. The seminar will cover the benefits of early system production, hardware/software co-design, IP verification and more. Additionally, the seminar will highlight a prototyping methodology including Synplicity's Certify(TM) software.
WHEN: Tuesday, March 6, 2001
8:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. PST
5:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. PST
REGISTRATION: To participate in these Web events, please register by visiting either the Synplicity or ENEN ENEN European Nuclear Engineering Network Web sites at http://www.synplicity.com or http://www.netseminar.com. All seminar attendees who complete a feedback form will be entered to win a free "Razor Scooter." About Synplicity Synplicity, Inc. (Nasdaq: SYNP SYNP Synchronization Profile ) is a leading provider of software products that enable the rapid and effective design and verification of semiconductors used in Internet infrastructure hardware and other electronic devices. The company leverages its innovative logic synthesis The conversion of a high-level electronic circuit description into a list of logic gates and their interconnections, called the "netlist." Every logic synthesis program understands some subset of Verilog and VHDL. , physical synthesis and verification software solutions to improve performance and shorten development time for complex programmable logic devices, application specific integrated circuits (ASICs) and system-on-chip (SoC) integrated circuits. Synplicity's fast, easy-to-use, affordable products offer extremely high quality of results, support industry-standard design languages (VHDL (VHSIC Hardware Description Language) A hardware description language (HDL) used to design electronic systems at the component, board and system level. VHDL allows models to be developed at a very high level of abstraction. and Verilog) and run on popular platforms (Windows 98/2000, Windows NT and UNIX UNIX Operating system for digital computers, developed by Ken Thompson of Bell Laboratories in 1969. It was initially designed for a single user (the name was a pun on the earlier operating system Multics). ). Synplicity is located at 935 Stewart Drive, Sunnyvale, Calif., 94085.
