Business Wire
Mentor Graphics Corp. (NASDAQ: MENT) today announced that it has
acquired certain assets of Oasys Design Systems, Inc., creator of
the Oasys RealTime RTL physical synthesis platform. The Oasys
RealTime™ product helps SoC/ASIC design teams to realize improved
quality of results and faster turnaround time for today’s complex
SoCs, ASICs, and IP blocks. This acquisition aligns with Mentor’s
goal to deliver a best-in-class digital implementation platform to
address the performance, power and area (PPA) challenges at
advanced nodes. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
Oasys Design Systems is a privately held company founded by a
team of RTL synthesis veterans with decades of experience
delivering successful synthesis products. The Oasys team, led by
its founders, Paul van Besouw, Johnson Limqueco, and Harm Arts, has
created a next-generation RTL physical synthesis technology, which
optimizes at a higher level of abstraction. This enables faster
turnaround times and the capacity to synthesize the entire top
level of the largest designs, all while being physically aware for
better correlation with physical design. Its “placement first”
synthesis methodology and integrated RTL floorplanning capability
enable physical backend issues to be analyzed and addressed at RTL
stages before hand-off to the back-end groups for physical design
implementation.
“The Oasys team has done an exceptional job in developing an
innovative synthesis platform that delivers compelling value at
advanced nodes,” said Pravin Madhani, general manager of the Place
& Route Division at Mentor Graphics. “Today, the Olympus-SoC
netlist-to-GDSII solution is in active use at leading wireless,
GPU, networking and set-top box design houses, and has been used to
implement some of the largest and most complex SoCs in the
industry. With this acquisition, Mentor will deliver a
best-in-class RTL-to-GDSII digital implementation platform to our
customers.”
“The Oasys RealTime engine is a major advancement in the state
of the art of RTL synthesis technology,” said Paul van Besouw,
former chairman and chief technology officer at Oasys Design
Systems. “RealTime’s ability to handle large designs, unique RTL
code placement approach, physical RTL synthesis and integrated
floorplanning capabilities helps deliver the best quality of
results and reduces the time to design closure. We are excited to
be a part of Mentor Graphics and look forward to delivering the
next-generation RTL synthesis solution to the market.”
