ROCHESTER, NY – EMA Design Automation has announced a vendor participation program where manufacturers can contribute part kits to EMA’s TimingDesigner Design Kit library. GSI became the first participant by contributing kits for its SigmaQuad family of memory devices. The company states that the ability for vendors to provide timing models for inclusion in the EMA Design Kit Program will ensure the accuracy required to define and setup timing analysis for their products.

“With the speed and complexity of today’s designs, customers need accurate tools and time saving models to help them tackle these [design] challenges,” said Manny Marcano, EMA president and CEO. “EMA has responded with the TimingDesigner Design Kit Program to provide accurate static timing models for its customers. We are very excited to see that GSI recognizes the value in our solution for its customers.”

According to the company, design kits consist of preassembled component diagrams using manufacturers’ specifications that includes libraries for speed and voltage ratings, and that each kit contains timing protocols that can be imported into TimingDesigner’s Manager Window. The company also states that component manufacturers can use the program to create kits for their digital devices, and add them to the design kit library as well.

“GSI is proud to provide our customers with TimingDesigner design kits for our SigmaQuad family of SRAM products,” said David Chapman, GSI marketing and applications engineering VP. “These kits will enable our customers to perform an accurate and detailed timing analysis of their SigmaQuad memory interfaces.”
