Anova Solutions Corporation received R&D grant for low power technology
development
Anova Solutions Corporation, a Japanese subsidiary of Anova Solutions,
Inc. (collectively “Anova”), announces a research and development grant
from New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO) for the further development of its proprietary low-power design and implementation
technologies for semiconductor systems on chip. NEDO is a Japanese Government
R&D funding organization. The grant funding supports the low power
design and silicon test over two years.
Anova’s technology enables a low power design methodology considering process
variation for system on chip designs targeting both portable and tethered
devices. The significant power saving advantages of the technology provides
a solution for an industry which is driven towards more energy efficient
products.
This new technology uses Anova’s patent pending statistical modeling and
data analysis techniques to enable system on chip designs to have lower
power consumption and higher yields using existing design and fabrication
techniques.
Anova is an electronic design automation company focusing on low power
solutions for semiconductor system on chip design. Anova is focused on
providing tools to the semiconductor industry which address energy and
environmental challenges by reducing power consumption.
- Project name:
- "Development and application of low power LSI design methodology considering
process variation"
- Project term:
- Two years from April 1, 2008
- Project outline:
- To provide a new LSI design methodology to maximize the performance yield
and minimize the power consumption utilizing Anova's unique statistical
modeling and data analysis technique.
