Original Press Release:



Nova Engineering's IP Cores Bundle Provides Multiple VHDL-based Communications Solutions



Cincinnati, OH, August 15, 2002 - Nova Engineering introduced a limited-time offer for a high-value, low-cost bundle of IP Cores products today. The Comm Core Bundle includes five related communication IP Cores written in the VHDL programming language that were only available previously as individual products.

The bundle includes encrypted netlists of the following IP Cores:
o Complex Multiplier/Mixer
o Numerically Controlled Oscillator
o Linear Feedback Shift Register (PN Generator)
o Binary Pattern Correlator
o Early/Late Gate Symbol Synchronizer

As proven VHDL solutions, the Comm Core Bundle contains powerful building blocks, perfect for creating digital communication systems on a limited budget.

The Comm Core Bundle is available for purchase as a stand-alone product, or as an upgrade to any concurrent Constellation Development System purchase. Constellation is a PLD-based development board utilizing Altera's APEX and FLEX PLDs, and
manufactured in the PC/104 form factor - a perfect match for IP Cores. As a stand-alone product, the bundle is priced at US $499. However, with a Constellation purchase, the bundle is available for only US $99 - a very small fraction of the regular price.

"Initially, our design service engineers developed these 'building-block' VHDL cores to decrease time and effort over multiple projects, and we realize that other developers
continue to 'reinvent the wheel'," says Michael Rauf, Director, Marketing and Sales. "By practically giving away our IP, we hope other communication engineers will be exposed to our high-value cores and our Constellation Development System, and subsequently
return to Nova Engineering for future needs."

Available for quick delivery, the Comm Core Bundle includes a one-year limited-use license. Descriptions for each IP Core included in the bundle are available on Nova Engineering's website: www.nova-eng.com/ipcores.html. Additional IP Cores are also available, including the Digital IF Receiver, Digital Modulator, and the Adaptive Equalizer.
