To accelerate the development of application specific processors for embedded vision applications, Synopsys has announced immediate availability of the Embedded Vision Development System solution. This solution is based on Processor Designer tool set and HAPSFPGA-based prototyping system of Synopsis.
The new Embedded Vision Development System enables designers to rapidly explore and tune processor architectures for the optimal combination of power and speed, and quickly implement the design on a HAPS FPGA-based prototype. This system also helps to reduce the development time from months to weeks for power and performance optimized application specific processors.
John Koeter, Vice-President of Marketing for IP and Systems at Synopsys, said, "The Synopsys Embedded Vision Development System, based on Processor Designer and a linkage to HAPS FPGA-based prototyping, saves months of engineering effort by combining software and hardware tools that enable designers to analytically arrive at the best processor implementation for their specific application, then quickly prototype the entire SoC to complete the hardware/software integration."
To help the designers quickly implement an ASIP optimized to meet their specific SoC objectives for power consumption and performance, the solution includes pre-verified design examples. It provides a ready-to-use, modifiable base processor which supports all functions provided by the OpenCV library.
The solution comprises of a combination of Processor Designer and HAPS in the new integrated design and prototyping system which provides an effective way to refine and validate ASIP architectures from project to project.
