Inovys Joins LogicVision's LV Ready Partner Program; Inovys Testers Integrated with LogicVision's Embedded Test Solution.Business Editors/High-Tech Writers SAN JOSE San Jose, city, United States San Jose (sănəzā`, săn hōzā`), city (1990 pop. 782,248), seat of Santa Clara co., W central Calif.; founded 1777, inc. 1850. , Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 17, 2002 LogicVision, Inc., (Nasdaq:LGVN), a leading provider of embedded test for integrated circuits Integrated circuits Miniature electronic circuits produced within and upon a single semiconductor crystal, usually silicon. Integrated circuits range in complexity from simple logic circuits and amplifiers, about 1/20 in. (1. and systems, today announced Inovys has joined LogicVision's LV Ready(TM) partner program. Inovys' line of low-cost structural test systems now integrate LogicVision's Embedded Test Solution(TM). The LogicVision Embedded Test integration is a result of a continuing partnership between the two companies in a combined effort to provide customers with an optimized test solution, helping to speed time-to-volume production and reduce total cost of test. Mukesh Mowji, LogicVision's vice president of sales and marketing, said, "Our LV Ready partner program continues to gain momentum as the industry leverages the semiconductor production time and cost savings realized through leveraging LogicVision's Embedded Test Solutions." The combination of LogicVision's Embedded Test Solution with Inovys' line of low-cost structural test systems enable the full access and control of all on-chip embedded test functionality within the chip under test. This capability is achieved through the LogicVision database and Embedded Test Access software integrated with Inovys' STYLUS operating system operating system (OS) Software that controls the operation of a computer, directs the input and output of data, keeps track of files, and controls the processing of computer programs. . The integrated capability will be demonstrated at the 2002 International Test Conference in Baltimore, Md., October 7 - 9, 2002, at LogicVision's booth 1411. "There is an increasing demand by our customers to provide a proven cost-effective test solution that can be accessed from design to volume production," noted Phil Burlison, chief technology officer of Inovys. "Joining the LV Ready(TM) partner program reflects our strong commitment to provide our customers with the technical capabilities to meet these demands." About Inovys Inovys Corporation was founded to support the semiconductor industry's move to Design For Test (DFT DFT - discrete Fourier transform ) with practical, economic, and scalable structured logic testing solutions. By offering a new generation of test system and software products, Inovys provides substantial cost advantages when testing complex SoC's that incorporate DFT. The most significant benefits are lower testing costs, quicker test development efforts, and rapid feedback to design teams. With industry leading solutions for larger volume scan patterns, delay fault testing, BIST BIST - Built-in Self Test , and embedded memory, Inovys' innovative test systems address the test challenges of SoC, 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. , datacomm, DSP (1) (Digital Signal Processor) A special-purpose CPU used for digital signal processing applications (see definition #2 below). It provides ultra-fast instruction sequences, such as shift and add, and multiply and add, which are commonly used in math-intensive , microprocessor, microcontroller, and other complex devices.

LogicVision (Nasdaq:LGVN) provides proprietary technologies for embedded test that enable the more efficient design and manufacture of complex semiconductors. LogicVision's embedded test solution allows integrated circuit integrated circuit (IC), electronic circuit built on a semiconductor substrate, usually one of single-crystal silicon. The circuit, often called a chip, is packaged in a hermetically sealed case or a nonhermetic plastic capsule, with leads extending from it for designers to embed into a semiconductor design test functionality that can be used during semiconductor production and throughout the useful life of the chip.
