As I mentioned in my blog "IP Companies Still in Play", Virage Logic is the one to watch, and Virage is on the move again by acquiring processor core company ARC International, making Virage #3 in the Design IP Market (ARM#1, Synopsys#2). Other successful Virage acquisitions include the Ingot DDR technology, the Impinj non-volatile memory franchise, and the AMD/ATI silicon proven interface IP.
