Siroyan will market the tool directly to its customers.
A significant factor in Siroyan's decision to adopt the XRAY platform was XRAY's ability to provide customers with a consistent, easy-to-use interface from code development through debug.
This will help speed the time to market for Siroyan's customers in SoC-based convergence applications.
Additionally, XRAY's multicore debug capabilities are highly applicable to Siroyan's novel scalable integrated processor architecture, which combines RISC and DSP with memory management support in a single core.
"A key factor in our strategy is to deliver to our customers a professional-quality tool chain comprising compilers, simulation tools and debuggers that can be customised to meet the needs of the target configuration", said Ken Will, founder and CEO of Siroyan.
"Using XRAY's technology as a foundation will enable us to create an easy-to-use development and debug tool chain that will offer software design and validation in a consistent environment for both hardware and software teams.
We can achieve optimum performance and maintain the highest quality, which are essential in our 'right first time' approach".
Siroyan has designed an innovative VLIW-based scalable integrated processor architecture - codenamed Opus - that combines RISC and DSP elements, making it the ideal platform for demanding consumer-oriented applications, such as 3G mobile and internet connectivity, digital television and digital video broadcasting.
The company will deliver the product as a soft core, codenamed Rubicon, which eliminates many of the process problems associated with the conventional hardcore approach. Request free introductory details about products from Mentor Graphics UK....
