Carbon Model Studio by Carbon Design Systems, Inc.

ESL Tools

Product Description

Carbon Model Studio is a complete solution for the automatic generation, validation, and execution of hardware-accurate software models. Carbon Model Studio delivers value throughout the entire design lifecycle. Carbon models enable:

* Accurate architectural analysis
* Presilicon software integration
* Secure external model distribution



Rapid Development of IP Models

In a modern SoC, as much as 80% of the design is existing IP, either re-used from previous projects or provided by a third party. Carbon Model Studio enables the user to leverage this IP, in all of its configurations, to jumpstart the creation of complete, accurate virtual platforms.

* Automatically compiles RTL into high-speed software models
* Straightforward GUI manages model creation and validation
* Easy configuration management for model variants



Platform Integratons

It is important to be able to use your hardware models in your choice of system environments. Carbon Model Studio was architected from the ground up to support any system simulation platform. There’s no need to develop unique models for each platform. Carbon Model Studio provides direct integration into the following platform environments:

* SoC Designer
* CoWare Platform Architect
* OSCI SystemC



One Model - Many Uses

Carbon Model Studio’s many platform integrations mean that you have the versatility to use Carbon Models in all of your development environments. Software engineers can focus on a “data-book” view of the device for programming. Architects have access to the buses, interfaces and transactions. Hardware engineers have full debugability and visibility into the RTL including waveform dumping. Because the model is common, all of your teams can work on solving problems, instead of porting issues across environments.
