Sonics is the developer of SMART (Sonics Methodology and Architecture for Rapid Time-to-market) IP products that accelerate system-on-chip (SOC) design time while minimizing risk. The nucleus of SMART is the SiliconBackplane MicroNetwork; an active interconnect IP core that replaces inflexible on-chip bus structures with a configurable communications system.
