Lattice Semiconductor and Synplicity extend partnership
Synplicity is selected by Lattice Semiconductor as its exclusive logic synthesis solutions provider
Synplicity a supplier of innovative IC design and verification solutions, and Lattice Semiconductor a supplier of Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs), announced an expansion to the companies’ existing OEM agreement. Under the terms of the new agreement, Synplicity will be Lattice Semiconductor’s exclusive synthesis partner, and Lattice will broaden its synthesis offering in its design tool suite to include synthesis software for higher level designs. The companies also will work to deliver expanded support of DSP solution to algorithmic designers who seek to accelerate their DSP designs using Lattice FPGAs.
“A critical ispLEVER design tool priority for Lattice continues to be a focus on delivering industry leading timing closure capability to FPGA designers,” said Chris Fanning, corporate vice president, enterprise solutions. “Lattice is excited to bundle Synplify Pro’s leading FPGA synthesis technology with our ispLEVER design tool suite, and to offer our customers better performance and logic efficiency capabilities.”
According to Joe Gianelli, vice president of business development and strategic alliances at Synplicity, “With this deeper relationship, Lattice and Synplicity will more effectively work together to improve their collective tool flows and performance for increased customer satisfaction. Designers will continue to experience the real benefits of our ongoing relationship, especially when implementing exciting new products like the Lattice ECP2M, LatticeXP2 and LatticeSC families of high performance FPGAs.”
