Studio 7 can be used for processor prototyping for a specific application domain, fast design space exploration, or the development of custom extensions using Codasip’s architecture description CodAL language.
The tool then generates hardware and corresponding SDKs that are aware of the custom extensions, including Verilog or VHDL RTL and System Verilog UVM environments, testbenches and synthesis scripts, full compiler toolchain including advanced profiling and debugging tools, and both cycle-accurate and fast instruction-accurate simulation tools.
