Cadence expands ARM-based system verification
This expanded solution from Cadence features several enhancements and speeds system design and early software development, with hardware running in emulation, for ARM Cortex-A processor series based systems. Verification IP supporting the ARM AMBA 5 CHI protocol for advanced networking, storage and server systems is now available for simulation and the Palladium XP II platform.
In collaboration with ARM, Cadence is announcing;
• An adaptable interconnect performance characterisation test suite in the Cadence Interconnect Workbench, along with AMBA Designer integration, that delivers a significant speed-up of performance analysis and verification of CoreLink CCI-400 system IP and NIC-400 design tool based systems.
• Expanded and pre-verified support of hardware-accurate OS embedded software verification using the Palladium XP II platform with ARMv8 64-bit Cortex processor family Fast Models, which are now available through Cadence.
• Verification IP supporting AMBA 5 Coherent Hub Interface (CHI) protocol is the same protocol as implemented in the ARM CoreLink CCN-508 system IP and silicon proven CoreLink CCN-504 Cache Coherent Networks as used in enterprise level applications. The new Verification IP runs on all industry simulators, plus Accelerated Verification IP for Palladium XP II platforms.
