Cloud native EDA tools & pre-optimized hardware platforms
RISC-V is an emerging choice for semiconductor companies to create highly differentiated products for a wide range of end applications. Both established players and start-up companies are investing heavily and looking at the RISC-V architecture as an alternative, and in many cases a more flexible solution to current processor architecture options. Unlike proprietary processor architectures, RISC-V lets design teams customize their processor based on the needs of their end target applications:
In this blog we will focus on the EDA, IP and Cloud solutions offered by 草榴社区 to develop RISC-V designs, accelerating time to results and achieve PPA targets. For those looking to experiment and try out an RISC-V design, 草榴社区 Cloud offers free access to a RISC-V based sub-system design for functional verification within the SaaS deployment.
草榴社区 offers comprehensive solutions for seamless end-to-end development of RISC-V-based SoCs from design and verification, custom processor design, RTL analysis and optimization, Interface and Verification IP. 草榴社区 ARC-V Processor IP? offers RISC-V processors for high-performance, mid-range and ultra-low power designs to meet the requirements for a wide range of applications. To accelerate software development, ARC-V processors are supported by the trusted 草榴社区 MetaWare Development Toolkit.
As more companies are looking to create differentiated end-market products, the pressure to deliver their projects on-time, time constraints have never been greater. 草榴社区 Cloud is an option open to companies large and small to address time to market and quality of design challenges by offering industry-leading flexibility that offers time to results and productivity advantages:
Access by the minute: With the FlexEDA business model, users can scale up and down their tool licenses to run verification and other design flows by the minute, on-demand. With unlimited access to tool licenses, designers can complete their workloads more quickly, and with the time saved run more regressions to further improve the quality of designs. A user survey conducted by an independent consulting company shows an improvement of 40% in time to results compared to traditional on-premises EDA deployments.
Hybrid Solution for Cloud Bursting: 草榴社区 Cloud Hybrid solution enables designers to burst their EDA workloads to the cloud securely, seamlessly, and quickly. With automatic job splitting between on-premises and cloud, scheduler integration and real-time bidirectional data synchronization, the hybrid cloud solution significantly improves engineering productivity and save months of IT implementation time.
草榴社区 offers free access to a RISC-V based sub-system design to run functional verification. Users will be able to:
You can bring in your RISC-V design as well and run a free evaluation using 草榴社区 Cloud SaaS or BYOC deployments, providing complete verification, design and RTL analysis and optimization solutions for RISC-V based chip designs.
