Interra Systems Facilitates
Successful Deployment of Focus
Focus from FishTail Uses Verilog and VHDL Analyzers from Interra
Systems SANTA CLARA, Calif. - (May 25, 2005) -
Interra Systems, a leading provider of software building blocks for the
electronic design automation industry, announced successful integration of
its Verilog (CheetahTM) and VHDL (JaguarTM) analyzers into the Focus™
product line offered by FishTail Design Automation, the golden timing
constraints company. Focus is now successfully deployed with many
customers using it to generate precise constraints for chip timing in
their real life designs.
“Interra’s language analyzers have accelerated our time to market by
allowing us to offer proven Verilog, VHDL and mixed-language support in
our product suite,” said Ajay Daga, Founder and CEO of FishTail Design
Automation. “Interra has been very responsive and supportive during the
development, evaluation and deployment of our integrated solution,” he
added.
“Each win of our customer makes us proud. We believe that our success is
hidden in our customer’s success,” said Sunil Jain, President and CEO of
Interra Systems. “FishTail’s unique patented technology is getting
traction with serious ASIC designers and the use of analyzers in the Focus
product is an endorsement of our technology,” he added.
CheetahTM/JaguarTM as Universal Verilog/VHDL Front-end for EDA
Solutions
Cheetah and Jaguar provides a robust, high performance and easy to
integrate Verilog and VHDL front-end for EDA products. These industry
compliant products parse complete Verilog and VHDL languages and create an
in-memory Object Model (OM). Applications can then access design
information through provided API layer, thus saving enormous time and
resources. Cheetah, the Verilog analyzer, supports Verilog-95,
Verilog-2001 and now System Verilog 3.1, 3.1a and IEEE-1800. Jaguar, the
VHDL analyzer, supports IEEE-1076-87 and IEEE1076-93.
Interra Systems offers building blocks for EDA tool developers. These
building blocks are widely used by EDA tool developers as a universal
front-end to their design solutions. These standard compliant, easy to use
building blocks enable users to reduce time-to-market by saving a
significant amount of development time. Products from Interra Systems have
been used by over 40 EDA and SoC companies including Atrenta, Axis, CoWare,
Magma, Mentor Graphics, Synopsys and several others who have been
successfully acquired by Cadence, Mentor and Synopsys.
About FishTail Design Automation
Founded in 2002, FishTail Design Automation has set its sights on tackling
the difficult problem of precise constraints on chip timing – the area
where the success or failure of a design is ultimately determined. The
company’s patented technology improves chip implementation by
automatically identifying exceptions to single-cycle clocking from RTL
descriptions. FishTail is privately funded. For more information about
