INICORE announces Distribution Agreement with Temento Systems
Montbonnot - France and Newark, CA - USA - Nov. 24. 2003 - Temento Systems SA, announced today that it has signed a distributorship agreement with Inicore Inc., located in Newark, California for the territory of United States and Canada for its FPGA debugging and verification tool, DiaLite Instrumentation (DLI). Through its commitment to invest in sales and product support, Inicore will provide superior services to DLI customers.
This distributorship agreement has been signed after a six months period of cooperation between both companies. Inicore’s competence in FPGA technologies, methodologies and tool handling enable Temento Systems to offer the required technical support to its OEM and partners companies in the United States. Further, the agreement gives Inicore the ability to make direct sales and business agreements with its own customers and prospects.
The high level of performance and flexibility of DLI provides quite unlimited debugging capabilities. It is a feature rich tool and offers a lot of specific debugging settings. “To help customers to master DLI quickly, local support is inevitable” said Yves Devigne, Director of Customer Support at Temento Systems. “The additional offering and the local presence of Inicore enables us to penetrate our products in a much better way.”
As FPGA’s are getting bigger and more complex, and predefined functions such as processors and DSPs being added by the vendors, the engineer’s task to debug complex systems in a timely manner becomes more and more challenging. “With Temento Systems DLI software, help is on its way,” said Hans J. Kuffer, VP Business Development from Inicore. “DLI software offers fast observability and integrates easy into the process flow, offering the engineer visibility down to the single gate, therefore helping to shorten the long lasting verification effort!”
About DiaLite Instrumentation debugging tool
DLI™ enables on-FPGA and SoC debugging and observability by using embedded instrumentation. It provides a fast and easy instrumentation process flow enabling rapid design verification by keeping the same instrumentation whatever the version of your design. You will save days of simulation work by using specific debugging configurations on your chip, taking advantage of instruments like Traffic analyzer, Pseudo-random generator, Triggers, etc. DLI tool is enable to target any type of FPGA vendors on the same board including Xilinx, Altera, Lattice, and Actel. DLI front-end design uses VHDL or Verilog languages and works together with most common available synthesis tools.
