Carbon Design Systems, the leading supplier of solutions for architectural analysis, performance optimization and pre-silicon firmware debug, announced today availability of 100% accurate models of ARM®’s Cortex™-A15 processor on Carbon’s IP Exchange web portal throughits early access program.
Carbon is the first model provider to offer support for the Cortex-A15 intellectual property (IP) core. Cortex-A15 models are compiled directly from ARM’s early access implementation register transfer level (RTL) code and maintain 100% functional accuracy. Models are integrated with Carbon’s SoCDesigner virtual platform and enable designers to perform accurate architectural analysis, performance optimization and pre-silicon firmware debug for next-generation devices. Software running on the A15 models can be interactively debugged using ARM’s RealView® Debugger.
Carbon SoCDesigner lets designers automatically create a Fast Model-based system running at more than 100 million instructions per second from the cycle-accurate representation. This capability enables the same A15 system design to be used throughout the design cycle, from the earliest architectural exploration through application-level software development.
Carbon Design Systems will demonstrate an A15-based virtual platform with a 100% Carbon accurate model and ARM Fast Model booting Android in the Embedded Software Development Embedded Systems and Software Zone (Booth #1914) at the 48th Design Automation Conference (DAC). The DAC exhibit floor will be open Monday-Wednesday, June 6-8, from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the San Diego Convention Center in San Diego, Calif.
