Cadence and ARM Introduce First Automated Design and Implementation Flow for the ARM Cortex-A8 Processor
Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: CDNS - News) and ARM [(LSE: ARM; (Nasdaq: ARMHY], announced the joint development of the first automated RTL design and implementation flow for the ARM® Cortex(TM)-A8 processor. This ARM-certified, specially tuned flow, called "Cadence® Encounter® Express Flow for the Cortex-A8 Processor," delivers an industry-leading 1,500 Dhrystone MIPS within a simple and synthesizable methodology. System-on-chip (SoC) designers can quickly deploy high-performance, power-efficient processing in next-generation mobile, consumer and other applications. The new flow enables small teams of engineers to tape out even high-performance designs in a few months, gaining significant time-to-market and cost advantages.
