Carbon Design Systems, VeriSilicon Form IP partnership
Update: ARM to Offer Cycle-Accurate Virtual Prototyping for Complex SoCs Through an Asset Acquisition from Carbon Design Systems (October 20, 2015)
Pact Links VeriSilicon ZSP Models to Carbon Platform Technology
ACTON, MASS. and SHANGHAI, CHINA –– February 11, 2010 –– Carbon Design Systems™, the leading supplier of tools for the automatic creation, validation and deployment of system-level models, and VeriSilicon announced today that they have partnered to integrate VeriSilicon’s ZSP® models into the Carbon SoC Designer virtual platform.
Processors from VeriSilicon, a silicon solutions company based in China, are fully integrated with SoC (system on chip) Designer and enable users to perform implementation-accurate architectural analysis and pre-silicon firmware development.
Fast, Accurate Firmware Development
“We are happy to support VeriSilicon’s ZSP Digital Signal Processor cores and have VeriSilicon join our growing portfolio of IP partners,” states Bill Neifert, Carbon’s vice president of Business Development. “The majority of companies developing complex SoC designs are using our SoC Designer virtual platform. This partnership will enable those companies to design with VeriSilicon’s ZSP processors and begin firmware development well in advance of actual silicon.”
“VeriSilicon is committed to simplifying the steps needed to adopt our ZSP processors,” adds Prasad Kalluri, VeriSilicon’s corporate vice president of Engineering. “SoC designs are getting increasingly complex and system developers benefit by using a system-level modeling framework like Carbon’s SoC Designer virtual platform. Partnering with Carbon to make our ZSP Digital Signal Processor cores available in SoC Designer enables our customers to start the firmware development process much earlier in the design cycle and debug with full system visibility.”
The Integration
This integration links software models for the ZSP5XX and ZSP8XX series processors and debuggers directly into the SoC Designer virtual platform environment. Integrated models can take advantage of all of SoC Designer’s system analysis and debug capabilities. Debug of hardware and software is synchronized to enable engineers to set breakpoints in any part of the system and immediately see the impact of hardware or software changes on the entire system.
Availability
The VeriSilicon ZSP integration is available now from Carbon Design Systems. For pricing and further details, send email to: info@carbondesignsystems.com. To learn more about Carbon Design Systems, visit: www.carbondesignsystems.com.
