Sequence Design Joins ARM Connected Community

Sequence Design announced it is a new member in the ARM® Connected Community. As part of the ARM Connected Community, Sequence gains access to a full range of resources to help it market and deploy innovative solutions that will enable developers to get their ARM Powered® products to market faster.

"ARM, with its focus on low power processor architectures and physical IP, is a key partner for Sequence," said Piyush Sancheti, Sequence vice president of product management. "Our focus is to enable power-aware SoC design from system level to signoff. This partnership with ARM will expedite advanced modeling of ARM processor cores and physical IP to enable SoC designers to meet their power targets with higher predictability and lesser risk in their design flow."

Sequence provides EDA tools for analysis and optimization of power from system level to signoff. These include PowerTheaterT. Sequence is expanding this technology to ESL, enabling power exploration at System C level. Consistent power modeling for ARM IP is key to this early exploration of power where a designer has highest leverage to impact the power of the design. For physical power integrity, Sequence offers CoolTimeT, providing sophisticated modeling of ARM physical IP for advanced effects such as signal integrity and dynamic voltage drop. The partnership will expedite the process of enabling and validating these advanced models to mutual customers of ARM and Sequence.

The ARM Connected Community is a global network of companies aligned to provide a complete solution, from design to manufacture and end use, for products based on the ARM architecture. ARM offers a variety of resources to Community members, including promotional programs and peer-networking opportunities that enable a variety of ARM Partners to come together to provide end-to-end customer solutions.

The ARM Connected Community also enables Sequence to utilize the ARM Connected Community logo, which is an easy way for customers to recognize that Sequence has proven their commitment and expertise, in support of the ARM architecture.

"By joining the ARM Connected Community, which now comprises more than 300 companies, Sequence Design increases the large portfolio of skills, products and services that are centered around the ARM architecture, and currently available to developers worldwide," said Mary Inglis, director of alliances for ARM.
