ALLIANCE PARTNERS
Industry/Media
The EDA Consortium represents the vital EDA industry on a worldwide scale. It is the international association of companies developing design tools and services that enable engineers to create the world's electronic products. The EDA Industry provides the critical technology to design electronics that enable the Information Age, including: communications, computers, space technology, medical and industrial equipment and consumer electronics.
IPL initiative was founded by AWR, Ciranova, Silicon Canvas, Silicon Navigator and Synopsys. The alliance collaborate on the creation and distribution of an open-source interoperable PCell library (IPL) that supports the OpenAccess database from the Silicon Integration Initiative (Si2). For the first time in semiconductor industry history, IC designers will be able to use the same PCell libraries in tools from multiple vendors and tools they developed in-house.
RF Globalnet, the Internet's leading source of cutting-edge technical information for the RF/microwave design community. If you are an RF/microwave design engineer or engineering manager involved in the design and development of wireless subsystems and components, or military, and other radio-based communication systems at all levels, you now have access to a comprehensive web community delivering the latest updates on RF technology to give you the competitive advantage in your industry.
Silicon Integration Initiative (Si2)
Silicon Integration Initiative (Si2) is an organization of industry-leading companies in the semiconductor, electronic systems and EDA tool industries. We are focused on improving productivity and reducing cost in creating and producing integrated silicon systems. We believe that through collaborative efforts, the industry can achieve higher levels of systems-on-silicon integration while reducing the cost and complexity of integrating future design systems. Powerful economic and market forces are fueling demand for rapid integration and delivery of single chip solutions in a multi-vendor environment. Si2 is uniquely positioned to enable collaboration through a strong, implementation focus driven by its member companies.
Founded in 1993, the Wireless Communications Alliance is a Silicon Valley-based, nonprofit corporation dedicated to the mutual benefit of Northern California companies and organizations involved in wireless communication technologies. WCA reaches over 2,200 individuals and more than 350 companies and organizations. The goals of the WCA are to promote education, networking and exchange of knowledge; increase awareness of Northern California's vast wireless capabilities; support development and growth of companies in our region; and serve as a bridge between business and academia. The WCA organizes monthly General Session and Special Interest Group events with presentations by experts and leaders from around the world on a wide spectrum of topics including; the technical and marketing aspects of wireless products and services, regulatory issues, wireless standards and investor-driven wireless market analysis. The WCA is run by an all-volunteer Board of Directors.
