SANTA CLARA, Calif. - (Jan. 30, 2007) - Sequence Design today announced Bandspeed, a leading developer of mass-market Wi-Fi solutions, has chosen PowerTheater to reduce power in the next generation of Bandspeed's sophisticated 90nm AirMaestro SoC, thereby hitting aggressive power-management and package targets.

PowerTheater gives Bandspeed multiple tools for power analysis and reduction, including architectural analysis, clock-power reduction, modal analysis, and multi-Vt and voltage island support. Most importantly though, according to Bandspeed president and CEO Bill Eversole, Sequence's RTL power analysis gives designers the right information at a high level so they can make appropriate power and packaging tradeoffs.

"Early estimates are key here," Eversole said. "PowerTheater lets us make package decisions at a high level, leading to a superior product and faster time to market."
