Why is Synopsys buying EVE?
October 8, 2012
People have been talking about a hookup between Synopsys and EVE for a long time. I have specifically asked people in Synopsys in the past why they didn’t buy them and the answer I was given was that they would only buy them if they saw a way to make the product different from what the others were selling. Instead, Synopsys went down the FPGA prototype route and have had a friendly cooperative relationship with EVE when emulation was a necessity.
It is also helpful to look back in time. Synopsys tried to get into the emulation space back in 2001. At that time Synopsys made an offer to buy Ikos – in the future.
