Celoxica and EBV Elektronik Combine ESL Design With Semiconductor Supply Chain Integration.OXFORDSHIRE, England -- Celoxica (LSE LSE - Language Sensitive Editor :CXA CxA Commissioning Authority (construction contracting) CxA Compañía Por Acciones (Spanish: Shared Company) CXA CartWheels Xtreme All-stars (Richmond, VA cheerleading program) ), today announced cooperation with EBV EBV Epstein-Barr virus. EBV abbr. Epstein-Barr virus Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) A virus in the herpes family that causes mononucleosis. Elektronik, an Avnet (NYSE NYSE See: New York Stock Exchange :AVT AVT avian arginine vasotocin. See vasotocin. ) company, to provide electronic system level (ESL (1) An earlier family of client/server development tools for Windows and OS/2 from Ardent Software (formerly VMARK). It was originally developed by Easel Corporation, which was acquired by VMARK. ) design solutions to end customers using Altera's system-on-programmable-chip (SOPC SOPC System on a Programmable Chip SOPC Special Operations Preparation Course SOPC Second-Order Power Control SOPC Shuttle Operations and Planning Center SOPC 1-Stearoyl-2-Oleoyl-Sn-Glycero-3-Phosphatidylcholine SOPC Shaastra Online Programming Contest ) technology. With increasing demand for system level solutions to complex SOPC design the companies will deploy their complementary expertise targeting applications where high density logic is closely coupled with microprocessor technology such as Nios II or DSP processors. EBV already provides end-to-end supply chain integration for Altera customers across Europe and Celoxica will apply its ESL knowledge and expertise in conjunction with EBV technical staff. Initially focusing on design projects in the UK, the companies intend to scale the agreement to a pan European level. "EBV continues to innovate to meet the requirements of customers who present us with ever more challenging, complex and time critical projects," said Graeme Cathrall, General Sales Manager for EBV in the UK and Ireland. "By tapping into Celoxica's system level design tools and know-how we can offer a complete design solution from the system specification to chip level implementation." One of the highest growth areas for SOPC design is in imaging and video based applications, such as machine vision, broadcast and HDTV (High Definition TV) A set of digital television (DTV) standards that offer the highest resolution and sharpest picture. Although some HDTV sets are available in standard (rather square) screen sizes, the overwhelming majority of sets are wide screen, which eliminates . These application types are characterized by the need for real-time performance, their algorithm complexity, time-to-market pressures and volume production. ESL design expressly addresses these challenges and imaging will form the initial application focus for Celoxica and EBV. Sandeep Ram, vice president of European sales for Celoxica commented, "ESL design for FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) A type of gate array that is programmed in the field rather than in a semiconductor fab. Containing up to hundreds of thousands of gates, there are a variety of FPGA architectures on the market. is being increasingly applied to volume production and it makes sense to work closely with a distribution specialist who is set up to fulfill that demand. As FPGA devices become more powerful, they are being integrated into the heart of the system and ESL delivers the design efficiencies and system capabilities that customers must have."
