Atrenta’s SpyGlass has become the industry standard for establishing clean RTL. The goal is to enable a similar level of quality for RTL generated from ESL synthesis, resulting in faster and smoother implementation closure. Forte’s Cynthesizer[tm] and Atrenta’s SpyGlass are integral parts of the SystemC-based ESL deployment flow found in many of the top ten systems and semiconductor companies around the world…

 

 

Atrenta Announces “SpyGlass® Clean” Flow with Leading ESL Synthesis Providers

Atrenta Inc., the leading provider of Early Design Closure® solutions to radically improve design efficiency throughout the IC design flow, announced the expansion of its “SpyGlass® clean RTL” efforts to the ESL synthesis flow. Atrenta has formed partnerships with leading ESL synthesis tools providers Forte Design Systems, Synfora, Esterel EDA Technologies, and AutoESL Design Technologies under its SpyLinks[tm] program. The program ensures that the RTL output from the partners is compliant with SpyGlass and meets quality requirements on a wide range of issues such as coding standards, synthesizability, simulation readiness, clock management and power management. The end goal is to create a healthier and more robust environment for system-on-chip (SoC) design starting at ESL.

 

The Stellaris® Intelligent 3.5-inch Landscape Display Module based on the feature-rich Stellaris LM3S1958 microcontroller combines a complete QVGA landscape-oriented touch-screen user interface with several serial, digital, and analog connectivity options for easy implementation as a Human Machine Interface (HMI) touch display panel in an embedded control device. Software development for the Reference Design Kit (RDK-IDM-L35) is simplified by using Luminary Micro’s comprehensive StellarisWare[tm] Peripheral Library and Graphics Library in conjunction with ARM development tools from ARM tools partners…

Simulink Fixed Point 6 delivers capabilities for designing and simulating fixed-point systems and generating optimized code for implementation, while creating more efficient workflows. Simulink Fixed Point 6 enables engineers to quickly turn a floating-point design built in Simulink, Stateflow, Embedded MATLAB functions, Signal Processing Blockset, and Video and Image Processing Blockset into a fixed-point design based on input data ranges and target hardware characteristics. Simulink Fixed Point 6 can be used with MathWorks Real-Time Workshop Embedded Coder to generate bit-accurate production code from fixed-point models, ensuring the implemented design performs exactly as it did in simulation…
