OCP-IP's Working Groups are charged with developing enhancements and support for OCP and addressing the future needs of the membership in the use of the specification.
Synopsys, the leading provider of IP for standard interfaces such as USB, PCI Express, SATA and Ethernet, supports standards that improve interoperability and ease the design and verification of complex SoCs. By joining the GSC, Synopsys is positioned to enhance support for current and future generations of the OCP standard as OCP-IP continues to expand its thriving, robust ecosystem that facilitates greater interoperability and lower risk for design teams.
"We are pleased to accept OCP-IP's invitation to participate as a Governing Steering Committee member," said John Koeter, senior director of IP and Services at Synopsys. "Synopsys provides designers with high-quality standard interface IP products that, like the OCP standard, help lower integration risk and improve time-to-market for next generation SoC designs."
"Synopsys has made significant contributions to OCP-IP's working groups, including our recent collaboration to provide Synopsys' DesignWare Verification IP for OCP as part of OCP-IP's CoreCreator verification toolset," said Ian Mackintosh, president of OCP-IP. "Their membership in the Governing Steering Committee will help OCP-IP members achieve maximum consistency and interoperability across OCP implementations."
