The full production version of Silicon Valley Research's software took place less than two weeks from the announcement of SVR's entry into the Linux market. ''We are excited to have our software being used on such a demanding project as Innovisions' next-generation, System-on-a-Chip product,'' stated James Benouis, President and CEO of SVR.

Innovision Labs, Inc. designs and sells high-speed, mixed-signal semiconductors used in the next-generation, analog and digital televisions. The company's products will dramatically change the video picture quality and bring advanced new features to the consumer-priced television. The company recently completed a $7 million Series B financing from several highly respected Silicon Valley-based venture-capital firms. ''We have a challenging deep sub-micron design, requiring timing-driven layout and a very complex multiple clock tree synthesis. Our mixed-signal design combines digital signal processing, complex digital logic and high-speed analogs - all on the same chip. A very difficult set of requirements for a design tool to handle.'' said David Medin, CEO and CTO of Innovision Labs.
