Arm Fast Models are 100% functionally accurate, flexible programmer’s view models of Arm IP. They enable you to develop and test software such as drivers, firmware, OS, and applications without physical hardware. They deliver full control over the simulation, enabling profiling, software and hardware debug, and trace analysis. ARM Fast Models 2024 v11.26 Tested Picture Fast Models are available for all the Cortex-A, Cortex-R, and Cortex-M series CPUs from Arm, alongside many peripherals such as UART modules, memory management units, direct memory controllers, and more. These virtual models are available in two forms: preconfigured fixed systems (with pre-defined cores, memory, and peripherals) called Fixed Virtual Platforms (FVPs); or with a toolset to configure custom Fast Model systems more representative of...

Questa Visualizer Debug Environment is SystemVerilog class-based and UVM-aware to speed up overall debug time, even on today’s most complex SoCs and FPGAs. Siemens Questa Visualizer Debug Environment 2024.1_2 Linux Tested Picture The changing landscape of debug For years the process of ASIC and FPGA design and verification debug consisted primarily of comprehending the structure and source code of the design with waveforms showing activity over time, based on testbench stimulus. Today, functional verification is exponentially complex with the emergence of new layers of design requirements (beyond basic functionality) that did not exist years ago; for example, clocking requirements, security requirements, safety requirements, and requirements associated with hardware-software interactions. Given these complex interactions, effective debug often demands experts that are...
