SAN JOSE, Calif. - June 2, 2008 - Arithmatica, Ltd. today announced
that Solarflare Communications, Inc. has successfully deployed
Arithmatica's datapath synthesis tool, CellMath Designer™, to optimize
the datapath sections of Solarflare's new 10GBASE-T PHY product.
Arithmatica's CellMath Designer enabled Solarflare's IC design engineers
to significantly reduce chip area and power consumption while ensuring
all timing requirements were met by providing specialized datapath
synthesis algorithms and proprietary math architectures.
"Arithmatica's datapath synthesis tool has enabled us to stay ahead
of the curve with high performance and low power consumption. CellMath
Designer improved our engineer's productivity by automatically producing
optimal gate-level implementations," said Brad Masters, Vice President
of Engineering at Solarflare. "As we moved to 65-nanometer designs,
power consumption was an increasing concern. We expect to rely even more
heavily on specialized tools such as CellMath Designer to assist our
design team in reducing power consumption."
"Solarflare represents the leading-edge in products that enable the
implementation of 10 Gigabit Ethernet for data center and enterprise
networks," said Dan Ganousis, CEO at Arithmatica. "Successful completion
of their 10GBASE-T PHY design further validates the quality of results
and productivity improvement that CellMath Designer provides to the
datapath designer."
Arithmatica is the only EDA vendor focused solely on the needs of
datapath designers. Since 1999, Arithmatica has delivered the industry's
