Innopower Unveils iPaaS IP program

One program fits all SoC IP requirements!
A subscription based IP program to optimize your SoC design
Hsinchu, Taiwan, August 24, 2010

Innopower Technology Corporation today unveiled iPaaS, iP-as-a-Service. iPaaS is the new name for Innopower's IP program with cloud service in leading technology nodes. The name reflects the company's focus on providing IP and service to the customers on-demand and efficiently.

"Innopower is committed to supporting customers with comprehensive IP solutions to meet customers' needs," said Lee Chu, Vice President of Business Development at Innopower. "iPaaS includes a wide spectrum of IP needed for most SoC designs today. In the past, a fabless company needs to purchase specific IPs for their project from different sources. With iPaaS, customers can subscribe the whole range of IP with one license, then pick the solution on-demand. The IP overhead will be lighter, more flexible and cost-effective."

The iPaaS IP Program provides comprehensive IP offering and service in specific process node with subscription-based access. A variety of IP and service packages are available depending on the customer's needs, it will provide solutions such as digital controller IPs and variety of feature options for library and memory compilers.

Innopower will provide iPaaS in various foundry processes. The first iPaaS program offers the packages in 55nm (LP) process as below.
