Understanding your SoC: visualisation can be the key
Visualisation is a uniquely powerful way of understanding complex datasets - and today's SoC designs are certainly complex. The white paper looks at the benefits of gathering and analysing SoC performance data in a visual context. It shows how design teams can gain a better understanding of the real-world performance of their products, quickly identify problems, and rapidly drill down into them.
The document includes a range of practical examples based on UltraSoC's on-chip monitoring and analytics IP and software. It shows how developers can get to grips with tricky problems such as:
- Bus contentions;
- Interactions between processors and the buses that feed them;
- In-field performance analysis and trouble shooting;
- Deadlocks.
