Customer Testimonials

Cheng MingQiang, Engineering Manager
Spreadtrum Communications (NASDAQ: SPRD)

" We chose S2C's Virtex-5 series TAI Logic Module for design verification and early software development based on our success in using their earlier Virtex-4 series product line, compared to building FPGA prototypes in-house, adopting an established off-the-shelf FPGA platform let our engineers concentrate on what they do best - chip design research and development. S2C's price-performance proposition and dedicated support are compelling reasons for us to continue using TAI Logic Module as our platform of choice. "

Jian-Ling Hu, Professor of Electronic and Information Engineering
Shanghai Jiaotong University

" We employed S2C's TAI Prototyping Development Kit to test out several advanced SoC concepts currently under research. TAI PDK made it possible to derive effective design partitioning, compile, and debugging solutions to the complex issues we encountered. In particular, the intuitive IDE interface enabled us to set up SoC design partitions and observe internal signals for easy debugging. On a broader note, the technical framework S2C employs in IP security assessment, rapid IP integration, and embedded IP debugging – through its TAI IP prototyping methodology – highly agree with our own perspectives and research practices. "

Henry Wang, Technical Director
Atmel

" We needed rapid prototyping for our SoC projects, and chose S2C products because of their out-of-the-box usability. With S2C's high quality hardware and automated prototyping software, even our new engineers quickly climbed the learning curve and were able to implement multi-million gate designs on multiple FPGAs after just 2-3 weeks. "

Wing-Cheung Siu, CTO
MacXel

" The design projects in the market segment we compete in have especially short lead times, so building our own prototyping platform was less than feasible. After evaluating several options, we decided to adopt S2C's TAI Logic Module, which fulfilled the core criteria we were looking for: ease of use and a high speed performance-to-cost ratio. The project integration support we received post-purchase was an unexpected and much-welcomed benefit. "

Kai J. Chin, Vice President Product Development & Engineering
Penstar Technology

" We selected an S2C prototyping platform for our Tensilica-based SoC design because S2C provides a Tensilica prototyping kit that offers out-of-box interfaces to bus, memory, and debugger components. S2C's Tensilica prototyping solution literally saved us months of project time, as it allowed us to run our system-on-chip designs at near real-time speed and thus start on hardware-software co-design at an early stage.
