Synplicity, a supplier of IC design and verification solutions has announced that Synplicity, with its Synplify DSP software, has joined the Xilinx ESL (electronic system level) Initiative.
“We are very happy to join the Xilinx ESL Initiative,” said Joe Gianelli, vice president of Business Development, Synplicity. “During the past 18 months, this initiative has gone a long way in providing FPGA users with access to a comprehensive ESL design flow. We’re glad to be part of the industry’s transition to ESL design and pleased to be part of Xilinx’s best-in-class tool ecosystem for advanced FPGA designers.”
Synplify DSP software provides users of the MathWorks Simulink environment, an environment for multi-domain simulation and model-based design, with a highly optimised approach for the implementation of DSP algorithms into silicon. With M-Control fully integrated into the Synplify DSP library and the MathWorks Simulink environment, data type and sample rate inheritance and propagation is fully supported.
“We are pleased to welcome Synplicity as one of our Xilinx ESL Initiative members,” said Steve Lass, senior director - Software Marketing at Xilinx. “Based on the growing popularity of the Simulink-basedapproach for DSP algorithm design and Synplify DSP’s unique architectural exploration and advanced optimisation, we are happy to include the first vendor independent SimuLink-based ESL synthesis flow—Synplify DSP.”
