ARC emulators use JTAG to cut external hardware
Available from ARC Cores are the first JTAG emulators for a configurable processor to provide powerful development and test capabilities normally only available with external hardware.
Board supports soft-processor-based SoC designs
ARCangel 3 from ARC Cores is a new development platform supporting the latest available FPGAs.
NeuriCam's capabilities range from silicon design to system architectures and software development, enabling the company to develop both standard products for digital cameras and digital parallel processors, as well as customised vision systems and design services.
The first design is being manufactured in TSMC's 0.35-micron process through Austria Mikro Systeme International.
Alvise Sartori, general manager of NeuriCam, said, "We have already completed one design using ARC's microprocessor for an automotive application.
We are now working on a fingerprint recognition chip for another customer.
One of the main benefits of ARC's processor is that it is silicon portable - which means we can take the design to any semiconductor foundry".
Jim Turley, senior vice-president of technology strategy at ARC commented, "ARC's user-configurable 32bit processor provides our customers with a key commercial benefit, in that they can point and click to configure a custom microprocessor and then take it to the semiconductor foundry of their choice.
This is important when customers need control of their manufacturing, rather than being told by their silicon vendor which one they must use".
