Overview

Available The Path Margin Monitor (PMM) solution consists of multiple PMM units, a PMM controller, and associated software & EDA automation. PMM IP is a building block for the PMM solution which is also supported by an automated implementation flow from Synopsys. Path selection logic, RTL configuration & generation, connecting to functional and/or test paths, synthesis, implementation, timing validation and path qualification are the key functions addressed by the EDA automation provided. Associated software allows the data generated from the PMM solution to be effectively analyzed and allow precise decisions made based on those insights.

Synopsys Expands Collaboration with Arm to Accelerate the Automotive Industry’s Transformation to Software-Defined Vehicles

Rising software complexity, tighter development timelines, and cost pressures require automotive companies to re-engineer how they design, deploy, and maintain their system architectures. Addressing these challenges requires an agile, collaborative approach to engineering — from silicon to systems — along with trusted partners capable of delivering powerful, integrated solutions.

Designing FPGA Based Reliable Systems Using Virtex-5 System Monitor

The fast track development and 24x7 operations have put tremendous pressure on the servers, networking systems and communication equipments. It has become necessary that these systems should operate reliably irrespective of the change in external operating environment like the temperature, humidity, and power fluctuations or, on chip conditions like on-chip temperature, internal voltage levels etc. Measuring the reliability of these physical systems is must for every operational unit.
