Media Advisory: Optima’s DVCon U.S. Participation
/in Press Releases /by Habib KaramWHO
Optima Design automation, a pioneer in Functional Safety and ISO 26262 fault analysis technology targeting hard and soft error analysis for accelerated semiconductor development of up to 1,000X performance improvement over traditional fault simulation for automotive and other safety critical applications
WHAT
Due to travel restrictions associated with the Coronavirus, Optima’s team to DVCon was not able to attend DVCon in person. Instead, Optima will be conducting live, virtual demos from their Booth #406 at DVCon. Attendees are invited to stop by during show hours to meet with Optima’s CEO Jamil Mazzawi for a one on one conversation about specific Functional Safety and ISO-26262 design challenges or a quick demonstration of the company’s next generation functional safety products.

Optima Design Automation geht mit Tools für die nächste Halbleitergeneration mit Fokus auf Functional Safety an den Start
/in Press Releases /by Becky RaymondRevolutionäre, leistungsstarke Sicherheitsplattform von Optima erweitert das Angebot an hochabdeckenden Sicherheitslösungen für die Fehleranalyse gemäß ISO 26262
NAZARETH, ISRAEL – 29. Oktober 2019– Optima Design Automation präsentiert sich erstmals als Aussteller auf der DVCon Europe in München. Das Unternehmen ist Anbieter fortschrittlicher, einzigartiger Lösungen für die Verifikation der funktionalen Sicherheit von Halbleitern. Grundlage der innovativen Lösungen ist eine revolutionäre Fehleranalysetechnikplattform. Mit deren Hilfe lässt sich sowohl der Zeitaufwand für die Verifikation der funktionalen Sicherheit erheblich reduzieren als auch der Umfang der Fehlerabdeckung deutlich steigern. Optima hat dabei besonders sicherheitskritische Anwendungen wie Automotive-Halbleiter im Blick.
Optima kündigt anlässlich der DVCon die Markteinführung der Optima Safety Platform an, die mit automatisierten Lösungen an den Start geht, mit denen sich permanente (Hard-Error) und transiente (Soft-Error) Fehler analysieren, die Abdeckung maximieren sowie strukturelle Analysen durchführen lassen. Die Optima Safety Platform, in der mehr als 27 Mannjahre Entwicklungszeit stecken, befindet sich bereits bei führenden Anbietern von Automotive-Halbleitern in der Evaluierung.

Optima Design Automation Announces the “Optima Safety Platform” to Drive Order-of-Magnitude Safety Fault Analysis Performance Improvements
/in Press Releases /by Becky RaymondFault Injection Engine Forms the Basis of Unique Hard and Soft Error Automated Fault Analysis Solutions Accelerating ISO 26262 Verification and Increasing Device Quality
NAZARETH, ISRAEL – October 29, 2019 – Optima Design Automation today rolled out its next-generation Optima Safety Platform, (OSP), based on its Fault Injection Engine (FIE™) technology. OSP includes Optima’s first two automated solutions: Optima-HE™ and Optima-SE™ for hard-error and soft-error analysis, respectively. By increasing fault analysis performance by orders of magnitude over the next fastest solution, Optima offers its customers a reduction in analysis time from months to days, as well as automated coverage improvement and design safety.
OSP has been shown in private benchmarks to increase fault analysis performance more than two orders of magnitude over its nearest rival. To date, fault analysis of large automotive safety critical devices, as stipulated by the ISO 26262 standard, can require months of compute time to perform. By reducing this time to a matter of days or hours, new forms of analysis can be performed that dramatically improve device safety and quality while ensuring an accurate measure of fault resistance. The addition of Optima’s automated CoverageMaximizer™ technology allows for design areas not analyzed during verification to be easily eliminated, further improving the analysis process.
