Key features
- Cost effective:
- SystemBIST is a codeless IP solution that efficiently leverages existing system FLASH memory to hold up to fifteen unique FPGA/CPLD configuration and manufacturing test suites that can be applied at power-up by SystemBIST. It eliminates FPGA configuration PROMs saving parts cost and PCB area.
- Vendor independent
- SystemBIST is a complete vendor independent solution that can be used for in-system configuration of 1149.1 and 1532 compliant FPGA and CPLD devices.
- Integrated Software tools
- The Eclipse Test Development Environment software is used to create and validate system configuration and test suites. The data is then loaded by the tools into the SystemBIST™ non-volatile memory. The tools provide design engineers a valuable prototyping aid that can be quickly deployed in the lab to validate functional, test, and debug configurations.
- Centralized ‘anytime-anywhere’ in-system configuration and embedded test
- Design teams can lower their overall product costs by embedding manufacturing test and diagnostics into their systems. SystemBIST removes the requirements for external ATE; enables anytime-anywhere testing, descriptive diagnostics are embedded into the system and automatically run at power-up, test re-use is enabled -- the same tests can be used throughout the life cycle of the product including at system integration, HALT/HASS testing, at customer power-up, field service and depot repair.
- Centralization of configuration and test data greatly simplifies system upgrades. Configuration suites can be quickly loaded into the system’s FLASH memory using the Fast Access Controller (FACTM). The entire system programmable logic and non-volatile memories can be updated over a common system-wide configuration and test bus.

Announcing Arm AGI CPU: The silicon foundation for the agentic AI cloud era
For the first time in our more than 35-year history, Arm is delivering its own silicon products – extending the Arm Neoverse platform beyond IP and Arm Compute Subsystems (CSS) to give customers greater choice in how they deploy Arm compute – from building custom silicon to integrating platform-level solutions or deploying Arm-designed processors.
ChiPy®: Bridge Neural Networks and C++ on Silicon — Full Inference Pipelines with Zero CPU Round-Trips
The ChiPy DSL is Quadric's Python framework for building complete on-chip pipelines. Using YOLOX-M as a case study, we show how backbone inference, box decoding, and NMS run entirely on the Chimera GPNPU — no host CPU intervention, no DDR round-trips, just Python compiled to silicon.
Unleashing Leading On-Device AI Performance and Efficiency with New Arm C1 CPU Cluster
As part of the new Arm Lumex compute subsystem (CSS) platform, the Arm C1 CPU cluster – the first built on the Armv9.3 architecture – is the next evolution of our highest performing CPU cluster for consumer devices, designed to unleash the full potential of on-device AI and elevate the user experience.
Encarsia: Evaluating CPU Fuzzers via Automatic Bug Injection
Hardware fuzzing has recently gained momentum with many discovered bugs in open-source RISC-V CPU designs. Comparing the effectiveness of different hardware fuzzers, however, remains a challenge: each fuzzer optimizes for a different metric and is demonstrated on different CPU designs.
