27-Mar-2008
Edinburgh, UK —March 12, 2008 ATEEDA has become a founder member of Synopsys’s HSpice Integrator Program. The HSPICE Integrator Program enables qualified EDA vendors to integrate their products with the de facto standard HSPICE simulator, HSPICE RF simulator, and WaveView Analyzer™. In addition, qualified HSPICE Integrator Program members have access to HSPICE integrator application programming interfaces (APIs). Collaboration between HSPICE Integrator Program members will enable customers to achieve more thorough design verification in a shorter period of time from the improvements offered by inter-company EDA design solutions.
ATEEDA’s CEO, David Hamilton said, “ATEEDA is committed to delivering the smoothest mixed signal test design experience possible. An important part of this is ensuring we have the best integration possible of our EDA tool OptimATE with world leading simulation tools. The HSpice Integrator Program is the perfect means to achieve this with Synopsys”
ATEEDA, founded in 2006, specializes in testing mixed signal devices which have both analog and digital sections. The company has developed the world's first effective software electronic design automation (EDA) tool, OptimATE, that allows analog sections to be tested on digital testers, enabling manufacturers to save substantial amounts of time and money.
OptimATE is ATEEDA's core product, offering a unique combination of features and benefits, particularly for mixed signal semiconductor manufacturers. Benefits include dramatically reduced production test time, reduced and test cost, simplified analog test equipment requirements, and improved statistical information about test coverage assisting with reliability.
