Arrow Chooses Tera Systems for Front-End Design Planning Solution.Business Editors/High-Tech Writers CAMPBELL, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 9, 2003 Tera Systems, today announced the sale of TeraForm(R)-LPA (LSI LSI: see integrated circuit. (Large Scale Integration) Between 3,000 and 100,000 transistors on a chip. See SSI, MSI, VLSI and ULSI. PRO Analyzer) to Arrow Electronics Arrow Electronics NYSE: ARW is a Fortune 500 company headquartered in Melville, New York. This company specializes in products and services of electronic components and computer products. , Inc. Arrow design services teams will use TeraForm-LPA to analyze and improve deep submicron designs in the LSI Logic Design environment. "TeraForm-LPA has significantly reduced our design iterations, lowered the cost of designing ASICs, and improved their delivery schedules as a result," said Michael White There are multiple public figures named Michael White or Mike White, including:
Created in partnership with LSI Logic Corporation (NYSE NYSE See: New York Stock Exchange :LSI), Teraform-LPA is specifically for use by customers of LSI Logic cell based ASIC products. TeraForm-LPA is an integral part of the recently announced LSI Logic PRO (Physical RTL (Register Transfer Level) A high-level hardware description language (HDL) for defining digital circuits. The circuits are described as a collection of registers, Boolean equations, control logic such as "if-then-else" statements as well as complex event sequences; Optimization) flow. This flow delivers predictive diagnostics allowing early visibility into issues like critical-path timing violations and routing congestion The condition of a network when there is not enough bandwidth to support the current traffic load. congestion - When the offered load of a data communication path exceeds the capacity. while the RTL is being written. This methodology alleviates time-consuming design iterations. TeraForm(R)-LPA combines the ASIC design experience of design centers with the RTL visualization and analysis of the Tera Systems TeraForm(R) product. It provides RTL designers with the insight and design practices developed by LSI on hundreds of the world's most complicated ASIC designs. TeraForm-LPA ensures a clean implementation path by allowing improvements at the RT level where designers have the greatest leverage. "Arrow Electronics is a leading provider of electronic components and computer products for the electronics industry and is known for providing its customers with the highest level of service," said Alain Labat, president and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. of Tera Systems. "Using TeraForm-LPA, Arrow's customers will be able to analyze their own RTL code early in the design flow, and trace problems back to the source enabling a cleaner design hand-off."
