UltraSoC Embedded Analytics And Imperas Virtual Platforms Combine To Enhance Multicore Development And Debug

UltraSoC and Imperas today announced a wide-ranging partnership that will provide developers of multicore systems on chip (SoCs) with a powerful combination of embedded analytics and virtual platform technologies. Under the terms of the agreement, UltraSoC will incorporate key elements of Imperas’ development environment into its tools offering, giving designers a unified system-level pre- and post-silicon development flow, dramatically reducing time-to-revenue and overall development costs. UltraSoC delivers the industry’s leading independent on-chip monitoring, analytics and debug technology, via a combination of semiconductor IP and associated software. Imperas’ pioneering virtual platforms approach allows software developers to start work at the earliest possible stage in an SoC project, and provides debug tools that give full visibility of the behavior of the entire system. Combining the two companies’ offerings creates a powerful integrated design flow with a common software debug environment that gives a smooth transition as a project develops. Both companies have a strong pedigree in system-level design approaches, hardware-software integration and multicore architectures: their new combined offering will support all common CPU architectures, including the fast-growing open-standard RISC-V ISA. UltraSoC and Imperas will share a platform at the RISC-V Foundation Pavilion (Booth 2638) at the 55th Design Automation Conference (DAC), in San Francisco from Monday 25 to Wednesday 27 June.
