Update: Cadence Completes Acquisition of Cosmic Circuits (May 23, 2013)

Cosmic Circuits Receives IBM Advanced Business Partner Certification and Completes 90nm Silicon Validations in the Power-Management and A/D Converter Space

Bangalore, India -- May 13, 2008 -- Cosmic Circuits, a leading provider of differentiated Analog and Mixed-signal IP announced the validation of two of its virtual-component (IP) cores as “Ready for IBM Technology” in the 90nm process.

The “Ready for IBM Technology” program is intended to help IBM foundry customers speed time to market, reduce development risk, lower development costs, and improve their return on investment by identifying design centers that have pre-tested and validated their methodologies for compatibility with IBM technologies.

“Two Silicon-IP cores in the 90nm process technology, a high-performance and low-noise LDO regulator and a low-power monitoring A/D converter, were created and validated,” said Ganapathy Subramaniam, CEO of Cosmic Circuits. “We are happy to offer such silicon-proven cores through our relationship with IBM, thus maintaining consistency with our mission to provide differentiated and quality Silicon IP.”

“We are pleased to be teaming with Cosmic Circuits”, said Ned Cahoon, manager of the IBM Foundry Business Partner Program. “Making validated analog IP available to our customers is a key consideration for IBM, and we have been impressed with the excellent results that the experienced team at Cosmic Circuits has achieved."
