"We are excited about the partnership between Silexica and Jingwei HiRain Technologies as this aligns with our growth initiatives in creating global availability and local support for our customers," said Greg Cole, Director of Worldwide Sales at Silexica. "With Jingwei HiRain Technologies' in-depth knowledge of EDA tools and strong local presence in China, it creates an opportune moment for us to deliver the best solution to customers and accelerate the journey from C/C++ to application-specific hardware."

Effective today, the agreement entitles Jingwei HiRain Technologies the rights to distribute Silexica's SLX FPGA in the Chinese market. Through Jingwei HiRain Technologies network and extensive sales channels in the country, Silexica will be able to strengthen its presence and customer support in China. The agreement further iterates both companies' willingness to drive growth and build relationships with customers in the Chinese market. 

"At Jingwei HiRain Technologies, we are continuously evolving and developing new solutions to enhance customers' processes and success," said Yingcun Ji, CEO of Jingwei HiRain Technologies. "With Silexica's SLX we found an innovative and unique technology that perfectly complements our growing portfolio and supports our customers to convert C/C++ code into an FPGA much faster and with better performance."  

Jingwei HiRain Technologies and Silexica are working together to drive next-generation automotive solutions using Xilinx silicon. Xilinx, Inc., is the worldwide leading supplier of programmable logic devices for the automotive market with a proven track record of solutions targeted for infotainment, driver assistance, and driver information systems.

Overcome High-Level Synthesis Challenges with SLX FPGA 

Adopting a high-level synthesis (HLS) methodology presents challenges that must be considered and overcome during the design process. SLX FPGA tackles the challenges associated with the HLS design flow, including non-synthesizable C/C++ code, non-hardware aware C/C++ code, detection of application parallelism, and pragma insertion location to help engineers prepare and optimize their C/C++ application code for HLS.
