Electronic Design Automation (EDA) Tools |
|
|
ARC works closely with a select number of industry leading EDA companies who develop tools and analytical techniques which ensure that the design intent of each uniquely configured ARC Core or Multimedia subsystem is reflected in the final design that is transferred to silicon. ARC and its closest EDA partners have developed reference methodologies which allow a seamless integration of the Partners front end tools and ARC’s patented ARChitect Processor Configurator Tool. An example of this is collaboration to develop specialized design reference methodologies optimized for low power portable multimedia applications. ARC partner EDA companies include:
