MMAV supports all DRAM, SRAM and flash memory devices from all memory vendors. Denali's proven verification IP architecture provides unmatched quality, performance, and EDA tool integration.

Design IP:
Denali's Databahn product and software are the most widely-used IP solution for chip interface standards such as PCIe, DDR SDRAM, and NAND Flash memory. Databahn cores are fully configurable and programmable for a wide range of performance and power requirements. Pre-configured Databahn cores offer market-specific functionality, combined with flexibility for application-specific optimization. Denali's unique Databahn DDR PHY IP is available as high-performance synthesizable cores. Databahn IP has been proven extensively in silicon, with over 260 design-wins and 100 chips in production silicon, spanning 27 process nodes - all with 100% first-pass success.

Platform:
The FlashPoint platform is a complete system design, providing a PCI Express (PCIe) interface to high-performance NAND Flash memory. The platform uses a unique design configuration engine that enables the system to be tuned for optimal performance with differentiating features for a range of products, including PC cache modules, solid state drives (SSD), and ExpressCard™ devices.

Markets:
Denali's products can be found in a vast array of digital consumer appliances and enterprise networks. Over 300 companies utilize Denali's industry-leading products in the development of semiconductor chips used in electronic products for computing, consumer, and communications applications. Denali's innovative technology and architectures provide the design community a suite of complete, integrated solutions that not only meet specification standards but are also interoperable with system components.

Industry Affiliations:
Denali has made significant investments in establishing and maintaining cooperative development relationships with the leading semiconductor memory manufacturers, IP and electronic design automation (EDA) vendors, and ASIC and foundry companies throughout the world.
