SoC/Platform Based Design Service

In addition to the traditional design service offerings, we build our own solution platform not only working design database in the workstation but FPGA for system validation to shorten customers' overall design cycle. SOC design consists of a number of hardware blocks, a process core, and the embedding software that glues the entire system together. We have been working with a number of EDA partners to establish a SOC design and integration environment. We have developed a generic platform to accelerate SOC development effort. We also have established low level device drivers called BSP (Board Support Package) to accelerate the software development effort. Experienced veteran SOC designers in our team will coach you on the SOC design environment setup and upon request we will also deliver application specific platforms to accelerate your design completion.
