Sidense an Inaugural Member of the Core Store

OTTAWA, ON--(Marketwired - Nov 17, 2015) - Sidense Corp., a leading developer of non-volatile memory OTP IP cores, today announced that it is an inaugural member of the Core Store, a new semiconductor intellectual property portal. Sidense's 1T-OTP non-volatile memory (NVM) products, covering a broad range of silicon foundries, process nodes and variants, are listed on the site, along with key attributes of each.

"The Core Store is an innovative initiative and one that aims to provide real benefits to all members of the IP ecosystem," said Andrew Faulkner, Sidense's Senior Director of Product Marketing. "Naturally we jumped at the chance to become a Core Store member and to give designers easy access to timely information about the NVM IP that we offer."

The Core Store provides an online marketplace where IP providers can, at no cost, list their IP products to a global audience of IP buyers. For IP buyers, the Core Store offers a safe, anonymous site to search for IP without receiving unwanted communication from sales representatives.

"We created the Core Store in response to feedback from our customers, who were fed up with the traditional options available for browsing IP products online," said Warren Savage, semiconductor industry veteran. "By respecting customers' privacy, making it free to list unlimited IP products, and eliminating advertisements to present all IP providers on a level playing field, we hope that we have effected positive change in the way the semiconductor community shops for IP. Our goal is that the Core Store will be of real benefit to everyone: IP providers and consumers alike."

About Sidense Corp.
Sidense Corp. provides very dense, highly reliable and secure non-volatile one-time programmable (OTP) Logic Non-Volatile Memory (LNVM) IP for use in standard-logic CMOS processes. The Company, with over 120 patents granted or pending, licenses OTP memory IP based on its innovative one-transistor 1T-Fuse™ bit cell, which does not require extra masks or process steps to manufacture. Sidense 1T-OTP macros provide a better field-programmable, reliable and cost-effective solution than flash, mask ROM, eFuse and other embedded and off-chip NVM technologies for many code storage, encryption key, analog trimming and device configuration uses.

Over 150 companies, including many of the top fabless semiconductor manufacturers and IDMs, have adopted Sidense 1T-OTP as their NVM solution for more than 500 designs. Customers are realizing outstanding savings in solution cost and power consumption along with better security and reliability for applications ranging from mobile and consumer devices to high-temperature, high-reliability automotive and industrial electronics. The IP is offered at and supported by all top-tier semiconductor foundries and selected IDMs. Sidense is headquartered in Ottawa, Canada with sales offices worldwide.
