  • Publication number: 20220171911
    Abstract: Systems and methods for assembling and developing a System-on-a-chip (SoC) by using templates and designer input data are described. One of the methods includes receiving a request for generating a design of the SoC. In response to the request, a template database is accessed to provide templates of a plurality of designs of systems-on-chips (SoCs). Each of the templates is for a technology application. The method includes receiving a selection of one of the templates. The one of the templates represents components of the SoC. The method also includes receiving a configuration file including configuration data input for the components of the SoC. The method includes compiling the configuration file and a definition file for the SoC to generate design files for the SoC.

  • Publication number: 20170315603
    Abstract: Tools and methods for profiling power consumption of an embedded system are provided. Power event and control modules, executable by the embedded system are provided. Additionally, a power measurement and control unit is provided that can measure the power consumption and limit the supply current to the embedded system. Furthermore, a power profiling tool is provided. The tool includes modules that interface with the power measurement and control unit and well as the power event and control modules. Then, power event and system data may be received by the power profiling tool from the embedded system and power consumption data may be received from the power measurement and control unit. Subsequently, power consumption metrics may be viewed by the power profiling tool.

  • Publication number: 20120017100
    Abstract: Tools and methods for developing and verifying a power management solution for an embedded system are provided. The firmware for an embedded system is partitioned into layers, including a control layer. The control layer implements a high-level power management behavior for the embedded system. A power profile development tool is also provided. The tool includes modules for describing the power functioning of the hardware of the embedded system, defining the desired power management behavior of the embedded system, and configuring the control layer within the firmware for the embedded system to implement the desired power management behavior. Furthermore, modules that interface with the embedded system and receive power system events and power status information and simulating the expected power management behavior based in part upon the received power event data and comparing the simulated behavior to the received power status behavior may also be provided.
