Verification IP assures IC
interoperability
Denali Software's PureSpec verification IP has helped Staccato Communications find critical bugs in its RTL as well as several bugs in its vendor-supplied RTL IP.
Staccato Communications has adopted Denali Software's PureSpec verification IP (VIP) to verify compliance with the latest protocol specifications and validate interoperability on their next generation single-chip all-CMOS WiMedia UWB ICs "There is an increasing proliferation of devices that demand high bandwidth connectivity and Staccato's Ripcord UWB products deliver high data rate, lowest cost and longest battery life, enabling a cable-like wireless equivalent and new usage models", according to Steven Larky, Vice President of Engineering at Staccato Communications
