Virtual Hardware Emulating Platform
Scope

Worldwide silicon vendor tasked our team to develop numerous device models for Simics hardware simulation platform and provide the customer with level 2/3 Support without real HW prototype.

Projects Highlights
  • Enabling various software stacks on Simics virtual platforms.
  • Developing standalone peripheral devices’ models for target system simulation.
  • Developing debug and other tools for Simics.
  • Custom system-level events support (i.e. event callback routines, memory access, pre-defined routines for system-level components and drivers).
Achieved Benefits
  • Development and testing before a real HW prototype is ready.
  • Fast custom builds of the needed platform models from various components (CPU, memory, etc.).
  • Code reverse execution to simplify software debugging significantly.
