Corrent Corp has selected Avant!'s Astro design automation technology.

Astro, a key component of Avant!'s Milkyway-based, SinglePass-SoC solution, provides advanced physical optimisation, placement and routing to achieve rapid design closure for Corrent's advanced-technology SoC designs.

"Corrent's Internet security processors lead the market in accelerating the complex cryptographic algorithms used in security applications", says Neel Das, director of silicon integration at Corrent.

"Avant! tools helped us to get from initial product definition to working silicon in only 14 months.

We are confident that Astro and the SinglePass-SoC solution will help us meet the aggressive development schedules of our future products using a hierarchical design/implementation methodology".

"We are very pleased that Corrent has selected Astro as the best way to achieve rapid design closure for their high-performance, Internet security ICs", said Dr Paul Lo, president of Avant! "This affirms Avant!'s continued leadership for advanced, UDSM design closure with the fastest time to market".
