ProDesign has added Design Duplication as a new feature to support Chipit, the company's successful product family of high-speed ASIC prototyping and verification systems "In many cases, it is useful to have multiples of a design being loaded onto a single Chipit platform to verify your design in parallel"

"With our Design Duplication software, we provide the user with a tool for duplicating an existing design without having to set up new projects for each used FPGA and without having to perform a new synthesis and place and route cycle", stated Heiko Mauersberger, ProDesign's CTO.

"After a short preparation time and depending on the original design sise, the user is able to create several instances to verify his design in parallel".

"This significantly shortens the overall verification time and enables our customers to meet their time to market dates".

ProDesign's Chipit ASIC prototyping line provides an integrated set of tools with debug capabilities that provide a dual solution for hardware and software verification throughout the product life cycle.

The FPGA-based ProDesign Chipit platforms can handle capacities up to 21 million ASIC gates and run at system speeds up to 200MHz.

The Design Duplication software is currently supported for the Chipit Platinum Edition Virtex 4 platform.
