Berkeley Design Automation Brings Big Analog/RF IC Verification to Europe.New European Office to Support Fast Growth via Direct Local Sales and Support SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- Berkeley Design Automation, Inc., provider of Precision Circuit Analysis[TM] tools for advanced analog and RF integrated circuits, today announced the establishment of its first European office based in Surrey, United Kingdom. The office will provide direct sales and technical support to the European analog and RF design community. "Europe has held a strong leadership position in analog/RF IC design in a number of markets, including communications, consumer, and automotive," said Ravi Subramanian, 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 Berkeley Design Automation. "Establishing a European presence will enable us to support the fast-growing customer interest in Berkeley Design Automation Precision Circuit Analysis tools. With our team in Europe, we will be able to work directly with these customers to address the next-generation analog/RF and mixed-signal design challenges that are key to maintaining their market and technology leadership." Berkeley Design Automation tools include Analog FastSPICE[TM] circuit simulation, RF FastSPICE[TM] periodic analyzer, and PLL PLL - phase-locked loop Noise Analyzer[TM]. The company guarantees identical waveforms to the leading "golden" SPICE simulators down to noise floor (typically ~0.1%) while delivering 5x-10x higher performance and 5x-10x higher capacity. It achieves this by using advanced algorithms and numerical analysis techniques to rapidly solve the full-circuit matrix and the original device equations without any shortcuts that could compromise accuracy. Design teams from top-10 semiconductor companies to leading-edge startups use Berkeley Design Automation tools to solve big analog/RF verification problems. Typical applications include characterizing complex blocks (e.g., PLLs, ADCs, DC:DC converters, PHYs, Tx/Rx chains) and running performance simulation of full circuits (e.g., wireless transceivers, wireline transceivers, high-speed I/O (Input/Output) The transfer of data between the CPU and a peripheral device. Every transfer is an output from one device and an input to another. See PC input/output. I/O - Input/Output macros, memories, microcontrollers, data converters, and power converters). The Berkeley Design Automation European office can be contacted via email at sales.europe@berkeley-da.com or via telephone at +44 (1344) 62-4970.
