This document presents an IP-XACT deployment case on a complex IP, called IZARN. IZARN is a digital IP which includes an ARM CPU and is targeted to be used in a SoC (System on Chip) for mobile phones.

In a previous article, Getting started in structured assembly in complex SoC designs, an unexceptional system-on-chip (SoC) design was shown to contain hundreds of intellectual property (IP) blocks.

Second of two parts: The creation of tools and standards for IP integration is progressing at a snail’s pace, but there is hope. New standards and fabrication methodologies may cause a disruption. IP ...

Supports ARM cores integration and verification Single access mechanism to all resources of the design database for concurrent validation strategies Functional validation of large SOCs by multiple ...

In this article, we outline a flow, based around industry proven and emerging 'capture and auto generation' EDA solutions, which results in seamless interoperability between disparate tools and ...
