ASIC-in-a-Box design kits
EASIC has announced the availability of two ASIC-in-a-Box design kits that enable ASIC design to be widely accessible.
Through simplifying the design flow, the design kits allow engineers who are unfamiliar with ASIC design to quickly complete designs.
Nextreme ASICs are constructed to help simplify design, verification and silicon processing steps within the overall flow.
The ASIC-in-a-Box design kits provide software and documentation for completing and implementing Nextreme chip designs, and also deliver board design and debug guidelines for designing systems that incorporate Nextreme devices.
The kits contain: EASIC's eTools software suite that includes utilities for configuring PLLs/clocks, assigning pins/pads, generating memories and post-placement configuration; and DRC Magma DA's Blast RTL software for performing synthesis and placement; documentation and design tutorials to accelerate design implementation; JTAG programming cable for configuration and debug; and technical support website access.
Designers can choose from one of two design kits.
