Additionally, the company’s Certify tool, the de facto standard for multi-FPGA partitioning and implementation and a key element in the Confirma Platform, has experienced its biggest year over year revenue gain since its introduction and its best year ever in 2007. This overwhelming response is a great endorsement for the Confirma Platform as a viable new verification methodology, and also validates the trend towards hardware-assisted verification for the successful delivery of today’s complex ASIC and ASSP designs.
Confirma is the industry’s only complete prototyping solution combining best-in-class hardware and software tools in a tightly integrated, easy-to-use environment helping customers overcome their toughest ASIC verification challenges.
