Update: Synopsys Expands DesignWare IP Portfolio with Acquisition of Sidense Corporation (Oct. 17, 2017)

Sidense SiPROM non-volatile memory macros to be available to Fujitsu Microelectronics’ 90nm System-on-Chip customers

Ottawa, Canada – February 25, 2009 – Sidense, a leading developer of Logic Non-Volatile Memory (LNVM) IP cores, has announced that Sidense’s one-time programmable (OTP) memory was selected by Fujitsu Microelectronics Limited for use in ICs fabricated in its low-power 90nm (CS100A-LL) silicon process. These chips using Sidense’s SiPROM memory macros are targeted for use in a variety of consumer, industrial and automotive electronics products.

“Use of our memory cores by Fujitsu Microelectronics demonstrates the confidence they have in the security and reliability of Sidense OTP, amongst several other important factors,” said Xerxes Wania, President and CEO of Sidense. “We are honored to work with a distinguished integrated device manufacturer such as Fujitsu Microelectronics, whose products are recognized and used worldwide.”

Fujitsu Microelectronics and their foundry customers now have the option to use high-density Sidense SiPROM OTP products that are available for licensing immediately. SiPROM OTP products are available in macro configurations from 8 Kbits to 512 Kbits. Please contact Sidense or Fujitsu Microelectronics for further information.
