Design software features photorealistic visualisation module
Synopsys has announced the availability of version 2.0 of its LucidShape automotive lighting design software, which delivers a powerful photorealistic visualisation module for efficient performance evaluations early in the design cycle, as well as productivity-enhancing tools to enable faster, more accurate model creation. LucidShape 2.0 empowers automotive lighting engineers to develop, verify and deliver high-quality designs while reducing prod...
EV processors operate at more than 1000GOPS/W
Fully programmable and configurable vision processor IP cores, which combine the flexibility of software solutions with the low cost and low power consumption of dedicated hardware, have been introduced by Synopsys. The DesignWare EV52 and EV54 processors implement a Convolutional Neural Network that can operate at more than 1000GOPS/W, enabling fast and accurate detection of a wide range of objects such as faces, pedestrians and hand gestures at...
Tool speeds ASIP design by five times
A tool which speeds the design of ASIPs(Application-Specific Instruction-set Processors) has been released by Synopsys. The ASIP Designer's language-based approach allows the automatic generation of synthesisable RTL and SDKs from a single input specification, accelerating the processor design and verification effort by up to five times compared to traditional manual approaches. ASIPs are deployed in a wide range of signal-processing intensive ap...
Synopsys will continue to sell, ship and support its ZeBu server
Synopsys has announced that it will continue to sell, ship and support its high-performance ZeBu server emulation systems worldwide. They have also released an updated version of ZeBu Server software that does not include the two features previously found to infringe on a Mentor Graphics patent. The release also includes technology for up to three times faster compile performance and Unified Debug with the market-leading Verdi solution.
Platforms feature 200 debug & analysis apps
Synopsys now has more than 200 debug and analysis apps available on the VC Apps Exchange portal and in the Verdi VC Apps Toolbox, demonstrating rapid momentum for customised applications that drive continuous innovation and further enable SoC teams to address their debug challenges.
Tool enhances VDK simulation performance by up to five times
Synopsys has announced the availability of its Virtualizer tool for creating VDKs (Virtualizer Development Kits), software DevKits that use virtual prototypes as the embedded target to enable the fastest time to quality software. The latest Virtualizer release integrates a number of features, including MultiSim, SimSight and FastBuild to increase VDK simulation performance by up to five times and accelerate VDK availability for earlier software d...
Verification IP provides support for low power mobile audio design
Synopsys has announced the availability of verification IP for the MIPI Alliance SoundWire1.0 specification. Synopsys verification IP for MIPI SoundWire is based on a native SystemVerilog UVM architecture to enable IP, subsystem and SoC designers to easily integrate their designs and accelerate verification performance.
Reduce data transmission bandwidth in Ultra HD devices
Synopsys and Hardent have announced availability of a compliant and interoperable Display Serial Interface (DSI) solution that helps reduce the data transmission bandwidth in Ultra-High Definition (UHD) mobile devices. By using Hardent's VESA display stream compression Encoder IP, video signals can be compressed and transmitted through Synopsys' DesignWare MIPI DSI Host Controller IP. This enables higher-resolution displays with reduced bandwidth...
Platform enables transition to 3D FinFET-based designs
Synopsys has announced that its GalaxyDesign Platform enables 90% of the production tapeouts of FinFET-based designs. The company has also highlighted the use of its Galaxy Design Platform byHiSilicon Technologies,for the implementation of ARMCortex-A72, Cortex -A57 and Cortex -A53 processor-based FinFET designs targeting TSMC's 16nm process technology.
