Duolog and ARM provide accelerated IP integration

DAC 2011, DUBLIN, IRELAND: Duolog Technologies, the award-winning developer of IP and SoC integration products has combined its industry-proven integration platform, Socrates, with ARM’s CoreLink AMBA Designer to accelerate IP integration. Duolog and ARM will be co-presenting this solution during DAC 2011 in San Diego, from June 6th-8th.

“Duolog’s Socrates complements ARM’s system IP and CoreLink AMBA Designer particularly well,” commented Andy Nightingale, Product Marketing Manager, Processor Division, ARM. “We are delighted to be able to demonstrate the results of this exciting combination at DAC. I believe that our customers will reap the benefits of this partnership as we continue to collaborate with Duolog and deliver joint solutions.”

ARM provides a wide range of high-performance configurable system IP; including, memory controllers, interface IP and interconnect fabric that are used to by system architects and designers to develop energy-efficient SoCs for advanced digital devices ranging from smartphones and tablets to set-top boxes and DTVs. Socrates ensures fast and consistent IP integration and system assembly which leads to fewer bugs and reduced verification times, resulting in faster time-to-integration. Socrates and AMBA Designer work together by using IP-XACT to enable a fully interoperable flow.

“We’re delighted to bring this great collaboration to the industry,” says Mike Smith, Product Manager, Duolog Technologies. “With Socrates we can instantiate configured ARM IP and provide input to AMBA Designer for interconnect creation, which is then automatically integrated into the system. Socrates immediately generates fully coherent processor views of the entire system as well as the complete connectivity netlist. The integration process is reduced from months to minutes.”
