Common embedded software development platform for all stages

Embedded system developers who would like to have single platform from pre-silicon to final product can go for Mentor Graphics' new platform for this purpose. The set of tools from Mentor includes Vista Virtual Prototyping product, Veloce hardware emulator, prototype target boards, and end products or any combination thereof. These solutions are part of Mentor's ESL product focus.


"Mentor is closing the gap in the ESL methodology. Their embedded software group, strengthened by the acquisition of CodeSourcery, puts them in the technology leadership position in the ESL software design flow," stated Gary Smith, chief analyst of Gary Smith EDA. "SoC and system developers will now have the flexibility to debug and analyze their systems at any stage and on any hardware representation."

"The extension of Mentor's Embedded Sourcery CodeBench unified software debugging platform to run on Mentor prototyping and emulation platforms presents a range of benefits for embedded software development," stated Raja Tabet, vice president, Software and Enablement Technology, Networking and Multimedia of Freescale Semiconductor. "Using this technology, developers can speed time to market and address key software tasks earlier in the development cycle."


"Since 1996, Mentor Graphics has been the only EDA vendor with a broad product line of embedded tools and software IP, now used in more than two billion devices worldwide," said Wally Rhines, CEO of Mentor Graphics Corporation. "Integrating our software and hardware expertise more readily enables our customers to deal with the challenges of today's multicore and power management complexities."
