| EVE and Tensilica's New Project EVE and Tensilica, Inc., has announced that Tensilica's new Diamond Standard family of processor cores will be made available pre-programmed into EVE's hardware-assisted verification platform to offer a fast prototyping vehicle to generate embedded software for system-on-chip (SoC) design. Tensilica customers can purchase EVE's ZeBu-Diamond that includes a single Xilinx Virtex 4 field programmable gate array (FPGA) pre-loaded with one of Tensilica's Diamond cores. The debugger in Xtensa Xplorer, Tensilica's integrated development environment, is linked to ZeBu-Diamond to provide hardware/software co-verification and to dramatically accelerate overall SoC verification and debugging. The combination of EVE's automatic compiler technology for mapping SoCs to FPGAs and Tensilica's high-performance Diamond Standard processors ensures that design teams will have access to a unified hardware system debug and software validation environment. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Computing News :: home page |
