EDA Newcomer Veridae Systems Lands on Annual What to See at DAC Report From Top Analyst Firm Gary Smith EDA

VANCOUVER, BC. –– June 1, 2011 –– Veridae Systems was named by top EDA analyst Gary Smith among the leading companies to visit at the 48th Annual Design Automation Conference, to be held in San Diego from June 5-10. 

Veridae is a newcomer to the EDA market, having launched the Clarus Post Silicon Validation Suite last fall. Since, the company has added has added the Certus suite for pre-silicon ASIC multi-FPGA prototyping verification, and the Corus suite for multiFPGA based systems product validation. Veridae’s technology has filled a significant gap in available tools for design, validation and prototyping of complex devices. FPGA-based systems and ICs are more complex and operate at faster speeds – a combination that has pushed the limits of conventional ad-hoc validation and debug processes. Veridae’s unique approach provides unprecedented visibility into a design, allowing engineers to quickly pinpoint and understand unexpected behaviors, correct problems, and rapidly move devices into production. Debug problems that previously required weeks, or even months, can be resolved in hours.

At DAC booth 3212, Veridae Systems will demonstrate live the Certus, Corus and Clarus tools, each showcasing Veridae’s design for validation systematic approach for different applications. The new Certus suite will demonstrate ASIC multi-FPGA prototyping debug while working seamlessly with technology from partners Dini Group and Mentor Graphics.

“Veridae is thrilled to be named by Gary Smith as one of the companies to visit at DAC. The recognition underscores the innovation of our technology in solving a significant design challenge,” said Jim Derbyshire, CEO of Veridae Systems. “We are also enjoying traction in securing both customers and partners interested in using our products to accelerate development time for overall reduced cost and time to market.”

Quickly and accurately identify inter-domain leakage issues in IC designs

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Power domain leakage is a major IC reliability issue, often missed by traditional tools. This white paper describes challenges of identifying leakage, types of false results, and presents Siemens EDA’s Insight Analyzer. The tool proactively finds true leakage paths, filters out false positives, and helps circuit designers quickly fix risks—enabling more robust, reliable chip designs. With detailed, context-aware analysis, designers save time and improve silicon quality.
