COMPREHENSIVE AMBA™ IP FOR SOC INTEGRATION

In addition to offering a full range of ARM cores, LSI provides a rich infrastructure of AMBA peripherals and Reference Designs to accelerate design cycle times and minimize design risk. AMBA peripherals include support for DDR-SDRAM, SDRAM, SRAM, and Flash memories, and industry-standard I/O functions such as Ethernet and USB. LSI also offers ARM PrimeCell® peripherals. All AMBA peripherals are extensively tested and validated, and supplied to the designer with test benches and complete documentation.

To improve customer design and integration cycle times, LSI provides solutions like the Processor System for the ARM926EJ-S core for customers to use as verified working examples of complete AMBA core-based processor systems. The ARM926EJ-S Processor System comes complete with BlueCat® Linux BSP and Virtio models to allow software development to be done in parallel with hardware development. Additionally, Reference Designs for all the processors are available. Reference Designs include commonly used AHB and APB components, synthesis and STA scripts and comprehensive documentation.
