Record quarter for Monterey
Monterey Design Systems has closed a record quarter as a result of expanded orders from existing customers and the addition of several new accounts
The new version provides all of the capabilities necessary for designers to complete their physical implementation in a single tool - significantly reducing the complexity of their design flow. The result of more than 40 man-years of development, an extended period of beta testing, and an intensive quality assurance effort, Dolphin 2.0 includes more than 30 new features.
Significant new capabilities include ECO, interactive wire editing, built-in silicon-correlated extraction, automatic clock-skew management, crosstalk-aware timing analysis, crosstalk driven routing, and improved ease of use.
The QA effort included running a suite of 29 previously taped-out customer designs from netlist through tapeout with each weekly build.
"The release of Dolphin 2.0 is a major milestone for Monterey", said Tom Kozas, product marketing director at Monterey Design.
"Our customers have been using beta versions of this release to complete designs for the last six months.
With the production release of version 2.0, Dolphin is ready for the most demanding of customer environments".
The production release of Dolphin 2.0 will be shipped to customers starting on the 10th December 2001.
It is supported on 32 and 64bit workstations from Sun and HP.
Pricing begins at $400,000 per year (US list price).
Current Dolphin customers will receive Dolphin 2.0 as part of their service agreement.
