Calypto Design Systems, Inc., the leader in sequential analysis technology, announced today it has appointed EDA veteran Bill Campbell to head Calypto's European operations.

Bill Campbell brings to Calypto over 20 years of EDA sales and marketing experience from Synopsys, Tensilica, Avant! and Chrysalis. Most recently, Bill was CEO of Microemissive Displays Ltd. which developed LED on CMOS microdisplays. Bill will lead efforts to expand Calypto's European market presence.

"Europe is an important market for Calypto. There are many leading electronics companies that can benefit from using our SLEC product," said Tom Sandoval, Chief Executive Officer of Calypto. "Bill brings experience and leadership that will enable us to expand our customer base and deliver high quality customer service and support."

"Calypto's Sequential Logic Equivalence Checker, with its ability to leverage System Level models for functional RTL verification, is the right product at the right time. Many European design teams are using System Level modeling today," Campbell said. "I see tremendous opportunity and I am excited to be part of the Calypto team."

To further strengthen Calypto's European presence, the company has added local technical support and partnered with the ISS Group as its Nordic Region Distributor.
