Products: From: viragelogic.com Virage Logic?s Custom-Touch Memory Compilers (CTMC) provide ultra low power, high density and high speed embedded memories in the form of reusable IP. All CTMC compilers are developed using custom memory design techniques to achieve industry-leading results in area, power and speed. Custom-Touch (HD), a high-density memory compiler family, addresses the needs of many applications providing low area and power with high speed. Custom-Touch (ULP) provides an ultra low-power memory compiler family that addresses the needs of power-sensitive portable systems. Custom-Touch (HS), a very high-speed memory compiler family, addresses the needs of high-end systems. Self-Testable Memory Cores? (STMC) integrate comprehensive BIST and diagnostics with the memory compiler families to deliver a complete, manufacturing-ready, embedded memory core. Virage Logic also offers custom memory design services for companies who require special configurations or functionality not supported by CTMC. Virage Logic?s ultra low power memories offer five to twenty times less power consumption than competitive memory products, and the company's memory cores work down to 1.0V. Virage Logic?s high-speed memories operate at 400 MHz worst-case, 700 MHz typical, while consuming less than one third the power of competitive products for 0.25-micron processes. Virage Logic?s also offers application-specific versions of its Custom-Touch? embedded memory compiler families, suited for 0.18- micron process-technologies. These application-specific memory compilers allow systems-on-chip (SOC) integrators to select memories optimized for the applications they are designing. Virage Logic works closely with semiconductor companies to provide silicon-proven embedded memory cores that can be rapidly integrated into customer design flows. All products include complete, verified EDA models for EDA vendors such as Avant!, Cadence, Mentor Graphics, and Synopsys. Virage Logic is a Cadence Connections Partner. Virage Logic also offers Embed-It!?, an EDA tool-suite targeted towards memory reuse. Embed-It! is a system that consists of two products ? Architect and Integrator. Architect is a software tool for memory developers to build embedded memory compilers and generate memory instances for reuse in SOC designs. Architect empowers the memory developer to efficiently build and deploy many memory compilers and reduces the time to do this by as much as 50-80%. Integrator is a memory compiler that SOC integrators use to generate instances for reuse in SOC designs. Integrator, which is the deployed compiler from Architect, generates memory instances within minutes, instead of weeks.
