Developer kit accelerates 32bit designs
The ARM RealView developer kit for STMicroelectronics is a complete, cost-effective development and debug product for design engineers using STMicroelectronics' general-purpose 32bit MCU products.
As a leading university-launched venture company in the semiconductor industry, AIL is positioned to convert the fruits of its research in LSI design technology rapidly into working technologies.
With the addition of AIL to the ATAP, this brings the number of participants in Japan to five, further enhancing ARM design services in Japan.
This also demonstrates the increasing demand for solution services for ARM core-based SoC designs.
"With our Hyper-LSI Design technology, which combines power-efficiency, area reduction, and speed improvement of LSI logic circuits, AIL has seen many successful applications of highly-optimised LSI designs, mainly in mobile phones and digital home electronics", said Kazuo Taki, representative director, AIL.
"Joining the ATAP programme will enable AIL to provide ARM partners with highly optimised implementations of ARM CPU cores, as well as SoC designs including these cores, thanks to the design technology and expertise we have fostered".
"AIL bring their extensive experience in silicon design tuning technologies to ARM core based SoC design", said David Lewis, ATAP Programme Manager at ARM.
"By using these technologies, AIL will provide high value-added design solutions to ARM partners and OEMs, such as outstanding SoC performance, significant reductions in power consumption, lower costs due to reduced silicon area and other benefits".
