Emulation

In today’s chip development world there are many challenges that exist which need to be addressed through emulation solutions.

Some of the challenges are highlighted below.

Many interface protocols in one chip

Because on many application in one chip, there are many protocols used in one SOC. Like Ethernet, DDR, PCIe, SATA, SAS, USB, HDMI, MIPI CSI/DSI etc.

Large Design

Great protocol integration increases the design complexity, which makes it harder to verify through conventional simulation solutions

Lower power consumptions

Design decisions need to consider power, area, and performance. The IoT places particular emphasis on power. This obviously makes system-level power analysis and management key activities.

High Network activity

Ethernet and other networking standards are being extended and/or introduced to address these needs with faster networking protocols and more ports to improve network service.

These problems are often not easy for customers to resolve. In order to help our customers to resolve above problems, PerfectVIPs offer different emulation services with help of our trained staff and products.
