Berkeley Design Automation CTO and VP of Engineering To Present at ICCAD-2005

SANTA CLARA, Calif. —November 4, 2005—Berkeley Design Automation, the new analog/RF electronic design automation company, today announced that co-founders Dr. Amit Narayan and Dr. Amit Mehrotra and three members of its engineering team will present breakthrough circuit analysis techniques at the International Conference on Computer-Aided Design 2005 (ICCAD-2005) in San Jose, Calif. on Tuesday, November 8 and Thursday, November 10. 

Dr. Narayan, Vice-President of Engineering, Dr. Mehrotra, Chief Technical Officer, and two members of Berkeley Design’s development team, Suihua Lu and David Lee, will present a paper entitled ‘Steady-State Analysis of Voltage and Current Controlled Oscillators’ in the Oscillator Analysis Session on Tuesday, November 8.

Dr. Narayan and Dr. Yuri Sirenko will participate in the session entitled ‘Simulation Technology and Tools for the Nano Era’ on Thursday, November 10.

Dr. Narayan and Dr. Mehrotra founded Berkeley Design Automation in 2003. Both received their B.Tech. in Electrical Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology at Kanpur and did their doctoral research together at the University of California at Berkeley. Dr. Mehrotra’s Ph.D. thesis topic and his research at the University of Illinois set the foundation for Berkeley Design Automation’s breakthrough Stochastic Nonlinear Engine circuit analysis technology. This technology accurately models the nonlinear, time-varying behavior of circuits at the transistor level, enabling designers to reduce silicon re-spins and reliably meet cost, performance, and schedule goals.

ICCAD-2005 will be held November 6-10, 2005 at the Doubletree Hotel in San Jose, Calif. For more information on the conference, see http://www.iccad.com.

About Berkeley Design Automation
Berkeley Design Automation Inc. was founded in 2003 to address the verification challenges in the design of next-generation high-performance analog/RF integrated circuits (ICs). Berkeley Design Automation is a venture-backed, private company funded by Woodside Fund and Bessemer Venture Partners. The company’s technology characterizes the nonlinear, time-varying behavior of complex analog and RF circuits, providing extremely accurate predictions that dramatically reduce the need for silicon respins. The company’s first product, PLL Noise Analyzer, the industry's first noise analysis tool for phase-locked loops (PLLs), has already been adopted by semiconductor industry leaders.
