Partners to Showcase Magma's Design Ecosystem at MUSIC Users Conference Feb. 27-28 in Santa Clara

Magma® Design Automation Inc. announced the companies that will participate in the Partners Fair at Magma’s MUSIC (Magma Users Summit on Integrated Circuits) users conference Feb. 27-28 at the Santa Clara Convention Center. This year’s lineup includes Accellera, ARM, Blue Pearl Software, Fastrack Design, IPL Alliance, LogicVision, Mentor Graphics, MIPS Technologies, Silicon Canvas, Silistix, Synopsys, Tensilica, TSMC, Uniquify, Verific Design Automation and Virage Logic.

“As adoption of Magma software increases in the design community, it is important that the ecosystem encompassing Magma’s tools grows accordingly so that user support remains strong,” said Kam Kittrell, general manager of Magma’s Design Implementation Business Unit. “Through their participation in the MUSIC Partners Fair, Magma’s partners are clearly demonstrating interoperability with Magma tools and their support for the Magma design ecosystem and user base.”

The Partners Fair is scheduled for Thursday, Feb. 28 from 5-7 p.m. There Magma users will see how other designers have achieved their design goals with a complete methodology that includes Magma’s RTL-to-GDSII software and complementary tools and technologies from Magma’s partners.

ARM, the platinum sponsor of MUSIC, will present an overview of joint ARM-Magma reference flows during Thursday’s lunch. Users will learn how these reference flows enable easy integration of ARM IP into advanced system-on-a-chip (SoC) designs being implemented with Magma software.

Other sponsors include MIPS Technologies, TSMC, Virage Logic and Common Platform.

Magma CEO Rajeev Madhavan will deliver a keynote address on Day 1 of the event. On Day 2, Chris Urmson, one of the leading figures in robot navigation and director of technology for Carnegie Mellon University’s Tartan Racing, will present a keynote on “Boss,” the autonomous vehicle his team developed.
