Highlights of this Announcement:

  • Strategic collaboration leverages all of Synopsys' platform solutions, silicon IP and reference flows to accelerate Arm's most advanced and high-performance processor designs
  • Synopsys Fusion Design Platform and Verification Continuum Platform enable rapid development and best-in-class PPA metrics for Neoverse V1 and N2 cloud-to-edge infrastructure cores
  • Arm-validated interoperability testing of Synopsys DesignWare Interface IP portfolio with Arm Neoverse processors delivering maximum system performance and preparedness for Arm SystemReady compliance

Synopsys, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNPS) today announced that Arm and Synopsys have expanded their strategic collaboration to deliver optimized design, verification, silicon IP, software security, quality solutions and reference flows for Arm®-based system-on chips (SoCs), including the Arm Neoverse V1 and N2 platforms. The strategic agreement enables mutual customers to accelerate their software development, co-verification of hardware and software, and Arm-based designs for power-efficient, high-performance computing and artificial intelligence (AI) applications.

In addition, the agreement offers Arm early access to the Synopsys DesignWare® Interface IP portfolio for performance, interoperability and compliance validation of the IP with Arm Neoverse processors, accelerating time-to-market of Arm-powered products for high-performance computing and AI applications. The new agreement allows Arm and Synopsys to closely align on product roadmaps and enhance Synopsys' interface IP solutions with specific compute capabilities for the Arm Neoverse platform, maximizing system performance. Mutual customers have leveraged the published performance and interoperability analysis reports during pre-silicon validation for predictive design success.

"Arm has been on a decade long journey to become a legitimate alternative in the HPC and datacenter segments.  With that vision secured, we are preparing to lead in these markets," said Chris Bergey, senior vice president and general manager, Infrastructure Line of Business at Arm. "Our expanded collaboration with Synopsys gives our ecosystem access to interoperable and differentiated end-to-end solutions, enabling Arm Neoverse platforms optimized to power, performance, capability and area targets."

The Arm and Synopsys collaboration spans design implementation, silicon IP, functional verification, emulation, virtual and FPGA prototyping, and software security. Synopsys offers optimized flows, comprehensive methodologies and professional services that address growing market requirements with critical integrated solutions. Synopsys full-flow solutions, including Synopsys Fusion Design PlatformCustom Design PlatformVerification Continuum® Platform, DesignWare IP, and Polaris Software Integrity Platform enable mutual customers to achieve the optimized power, performance and area, bringing to market highly differentiated SoCs with Arm-based products.

"Semiconductor and system companies rely on Synopsys and our ecosystem partners, such as Arm, to meet their most complex high-performance computing, data center, edge and AI design needs," said Shankar Krishnamoorthy, general manager of Digital Design Group at Synopsys.
