为了提高SoC集成设计效率,构建基于IP—XACT标准的CKSoC(C—SKYSoC)设计集成平台.采用自底向上的集成策略,通过IP/子系统两层复用和软硬件资源复用,依次从IP级、SoC核心系统级和SoC芯片级3个层次逐步细化完善系统平台,生成3个不同的平台:RTL仿真平台、FPGA原型仿真平台和门级网表逻辑综合环境,可以显著地提高SoC设计集成效率.双核SoC芯片设计实例展示了CKSoC设计集成平台使用与分析方法,证明了CKSoC设计集成平台的高效性与可行性.
An innovative IP-XACT standard based SoC integration platform named CKSoC(C-SKY SoC) integration platform was designed as a complete and effective solution to current SoC design. A bottom-up approach was adopted for the SoC integration and verification with effective reuse of both IP/subsystem and hardware/software. By refining from component level, to SoC core level, then to final chip level, three different platforms were generated: RTL simulation platform, FPGA prototype emulation platform and netlist synthesis environment. CKSoC integration platform can significantly improve the SoC design efficiency and correctness. Dual Core SoC design case study not only gave the detailed usage and analysis on the CKSoC integration platform, but also showed its efficiency to integrate a complex SoC design and its feasibility for correct SoC implementation.
