HD Lab, a well-known technical consulting company specializing in system-level design for the last 11 years and expert in system-level languages, design and verification, will provide electronic system level (ESL) design and methodology services based on SLEC System. Enabling ESL™, Calypto’s SLEC System is the semiconductor industry’s only functional verification solution to formally verify equivalence between ESL models and register transfer level (RTL) implementations.
“Japanese electronics companies continue to lead the way in ESL design methods,” remarks Eiki Suzuki, president of Calypto Design Systems, K.K. “Having the expertise of HD Lab as our partner gives Calypto an additional presence and technical strength in the Japanese market.”
Based on Calypto’s patented Sequential Analysis Technology, SLEC System finds design errors that other tools miss by comparing functionality of an ESL model written in C/C++/SystemC with its corresponding RTL design or system-level model for all possible input sequences. Unlike combinational equivalence checkers, SLEC System does not require one to one mapping of registers. The quality of verification SLEC System performs in minutes is equal to months of running simulation.
“SLEC System provides key capabilities for customers adopting system-level design techniques,” says Yoshifumi Nagano HD Lab’s chief executive officer. “We are very delighted to be working with Calypto.”
Calypto will offer demonstrations of its advanced power optimization and functional verification software during the 45th Design Automation Conference (DAC) in booth #1354 June 9-12 at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, Calif. Visitors will learn how PowerPro™ CG (clock gating) and SLEC enable design teams to dramatically reduce power and improve design quality.
