New partner in Japan
PRIVATECH Inc. announces partnership with Sigasi® in Japan
Tokyo, Japan / Ghent, Belgium – August 8th, 2025
Privatech announces the distribution of Sigasi® Visual HDL™ which empowers hardware design engineers to reduce development time, decrease costs, improve quality and achieve overall excellence in HDL creation, integration, validation and organization.
Sigasi Visual HDL is a purpose-built platform that integrates into existing tools and workflows to efficiently catch errors in the front-end of the design-cycle, in real-time when design engineers are writing the code. This avoids the expensive and time-consuming bug searching and fixing in the later design phase. Furthermore, Sigasi Visual HDL generates interactive graphics, including block and finite state machine diagrams, on the spot. It visualizes the code in real-time and allows a better and faster understanding of the most complex designs. Users of Sigasi Visual HDL experience a shorter design cycle and a higher quality code, which optimizes the verification process with built-in support for industry-standard verification frameworks. Sigasi Visual HDL also supports compliance with rigorous safety standards like DO-254, ISO 26262, and STARC giving warnings and tips to engineers that guide them to follow industry or custom in-house rules, removing the hassle of meeting even the most demanding requirements.
Mr. Yasuhiro Yamashita, CEO at Privatech said:”Sigasi Visual HDL enables early detection and correction of design-stage errors, significantly reducing development time. We are honored to begin handling this outstanding product. By partnering with Sigasi, we will accelerate its expansion in the Japanese market. We are confident that this collaboration will contribute to improving the productivity of Japan’s hardware design industry."
Dieter Therssen, CEO at Sigasi added: ”The fact that the leading hardware design company in Japan adds Sigasi to their distribution portfolio is a confirmation of the quality of our software as such. Privatech has a huge technical and commercial knowledge of the resurging Japanese semiconductor market that is expected to reach $79.75 billion by 2032. I look forward to kick-off our collaboration at DVCon on August 20th in Shinagawa, Tokyo.”
