Celoxica Gives European Debut for MeP Development Kit Including Toshiba's Second Generation Audio VLIW CoProcessor
The kit enables designers to deploy Celoxica's DK Design Suite to prototype and validate MeP based designs that include the AVC2. By using the DK Design Suite designers can easily implement the AVC2 and custom design additional coprocessors directly from software algorithms. Pre-built libraries supplied with the kit provide access to the MeP custom instructions as well as extensive hardware peripherals such as dual gigabit Ethernet, dual DVI and dual S-Video. Celoxica's co-simulation manager simplifies HW/ SW verification and connects into Instruction Set Simulators. Over 50 design examples are shipped with the kit.
Masataka Matsui, Senior Manager, Digital Media SoC Dept., SoC Research & Development Center, Toshiba's Semiconductor company said, "By making AVC2 technology available through the Celoxica's MeP Development Kit, designers can quickly see the benefits that the AVC2 can bring to their MeP based SoC designs."
"This MeP Development Kit builds on previous collaborations with Toshiba and makes it even easier for designers to access the very latest high performance multimedia technology," said Sandeep Ram, vice president of EMEA sales for Celoxica. "Wrapping our C-based ESL design tools and hardware into the kit provides a low-risk, high-productivity route to design exploration for digital media SoC."
