The ZeBu-Blade2 hardware-assisted verification platform is the newest member of the ZeBu emulation family, and the first based on Xilinx Virtex6-LX760 field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs). Emulating single-user designs up to 18 or 32 million ASIC gates at up to 30MHz in a compact chassis, ZeBu-Blade2 is ideal from pre-tapeout software development and hardware/software co-verification of ARM-based SoCs. ZeBu-Blade2 represents a paradigm shift in emulation, from the lab to the desktop for the entire design team.
