Arrow Chooses Tera Systems for Front-End Design Planning Solution.Business Editors/High-Tech Writers CAMPBELL, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 9, 2003 Tera Trillion (10 to the 12th power). Abbreviated "T." It often refers to the precise value 1,099,511,627,776 since computer specifications are usually binary numbers. See TB, binary values and space/time. Systems, today announced the sale of TeraForm(R)-LPA LPA - Amphibious Transport (US Navy ship type) LPA - Apolipoprotein (A) LPA - Gran Canaria, Canary Islands, Spain - Aeropuerto De Gran Canaria (Airport Code) LPA - Labor Policy Association LPA - Laboratory Products Association LPA - Labour Party of Albania (aka: PPSh) LPA - Language Proficiency Assessment LPA - Layered Process Audit (Daimlerchrysler) LPA - Lease Purchase Agreement LPA - Leather Producers Association LPA - Left Pulmonary Artery (LSI PRO Analyzer) to Arrow Electronics, Inc. Arrow design services teams will use TeraForm-LPA to analyze and improve deep submicron designs in the LSI Logic Design The architecture of software. See logic. environment. "TeraForm-LPA has significantly reduced our design iterations One repetition of a sequence of instructions or events. For example, in a program loop, one iteration is once through the instructions in the loop. See iterative development., lowered the cost of designing ASICs, and improved their delivery schedules as a result," said Michael White, director of ASIC Design Engineering for Arrow. "We have expanded the use of TeraForm-LPA to all our design centers and have had several successful tapeouts in .18 micron technologies using TeraForm." Created in partnership with LSI Logic Corporation (NYSE: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 Optimization) flow. This flow delivers predictive diagnostics allowing early visibility into issues like critical-path timing violations and routing congestion 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 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."
