Hardware design in an SoC world
Adopting a virtual-prototype-based SoC development process offers all-round benefits, and makes the hardware designer's job easier, argues Graham Hellestrand, founder of Vast Systems Technology.
Comet 5 includes two new tools, Virtual Prototype Constructor and Peripheral Builder, which enable semiconductor and systems engineers to create and modify their virtual prototypes without compromising the high performance and accuracy that Vast delivers.
Comet 5 also now includes the Communication Infrastructure Fabric (CIF), a foundation technology that extends the performance and accuracy of virtual prototypes from processors out
