Domestic EDA makes another breakthrough, Sierxin(S2C) releases OmniArk hardware simulation system product.
In order to meet the increasingly complex chip design and the increasingly strong demand for localization, Sierxin has launched a new OmniArk enterprise-level hardware simulation system. This product is independently researched and developed by Sierxin. It has a number of core technologies with independent intellectual property rights, and realizes fully automatic compilation of ultra-large-scale designs. At present, it has been promoted and used by many chip design companies, and can help SoC design customers such as automotive electronics, CPU, AI, 5G, and cloud computing to achieve complex simulation verification.
"OmniArk Xinshending enterprise-level hardware emulation system adopts ultra-large-scale commercial scalable array architecture design, and the chassis module structure is convenient for maintenance and expansion. The product form ranges from desktop to cabinet type, and the design capacity can be expanded to 2 billion gates. It includes a A set of convenient and easy-to-use software system, supports GUI graphical interface and TCL script commands, and integrates the complete process of compiling, running and debugging." According to Li Yanrong, senior vice president of Sierxin, the company's ultimate goal is to reach 20 billion gates, and the basic market will be All integrated circuits above can be verified in the company's hardware simulation system.
"If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools." While providing a hardware acceleration platform, OmniArk also provides innovative supporting software with various functions, including automatic error correction of user design syntax, Smart P&R technology, ABS ( Auto-Block Select) technology, diversified signal acquisition methods, etc., allow users to achieve MHz-level simulation acceleration, fully automatic intelligent compilation process, powerful debugging capabilities, and multiple simulation verification modes. It also has a rich VIP library, which is suitable for system-level verification of ultra-large-scale high-end general-purpose chip design, and can meet the needs of different verification scenarios.
EDA is known as the "tip of the pyramid" technology in the semiconductor industry and is an indispensable support tool for the integrated circuit industry. The monopoly of EDA has caused EDA to become the link with the most serious external dependence in the domestic semiconductor industry.
In the increasingly complex international trade environment, domestic EDA calls for independent control are loud, and dozens of domestic manufacturers have entered the market from their respective advantageous fields, starting to break through.
Silxin is undoubtedly one of the most dazzling ones. Lin Junxiong, CEO and president of S2C, told Jiweiwang that among domestic EDA companies, S2C is not only the earliest digital EDA manufacturer, but also ranks first in the total number of global customers. Since its establishment in Shanghai in 2004, the company has focused on the front-end verification business of digital chips, and has established good cooperative relations with more than 600 customers around the world.
