ARC emulators use JTAG to cut external hardware
Available from ARC Cores are the first JTAG emulators for a configurable processor to provide powerful development and test capabilities normally only available with external hardware.
Board supports soft-processor-based SoC designs
ARCangel 3 from ARC Cores is a new development platform supporting the latest available FPGAs.
In simulated customer results, the subsystem consumed up to 80% less power by operating at a lower frequency and with a smaller size than many competing solutions.
Depending on system-on-chip (SoC) implementation, the ARC Sound Advanced Subsystem can eliminate the need for additional silicon devices, such as dedicated DSPs, further lowering total cost.
The market opportunity for the ARC Sound Advanced Subsystem is considerable.
