For LSI Engineers - Do you have any trouble with your real machine test?
- It's hard to develop real machine test environments (SW, HW, and PCB board) for your ASIC or RTL.
- A general-purpose emulator doesn't have enough functions, despite it has extra functions sometimes.
VOROTO service will release you from such a trouble!
VOROTO service is one-stop solution which helps to develop your real machine test environments.
You can access your logic circuit (RTL in FPGA) from Windwows*1 PC,
because Vtech's VPROTO service develops SW, HW, and PCB board which you need.
And you can cut the cost, because you don't need to control venders which develop SW, HW, or PCB board.
*1 : We will support Linux in future.
VPROTO service details
Vtech will develop SW, HW, and PCB board which are concerned with your logic circuit.
>> HW development
We develop the most suitable PCI/PCIe bridge circuit for your logic circuit.
And we also propose your logic measure circuit which cooperates with SW.
In addition, we can propose a logic division to map your logic to FPGA, or suggest a timing test for your logic.
>> PCI or PCIe board development
Parts and its treatments are different if your logic is for video, communication or other systems.
You have to compromise to use parts sometimes, if you use a general-purpose emulator.
But you can select the most suitable parts for your logic circuit, if you select VPROTO service!
>> SW development
SW is organized by a device driver and a library.
We develop the most suitable device driver for your logic, because DMA or an interrupt function is different at systems.
And we also propose the most suitable library, because test method or UI(GUI, CUI, or simulator connect) is different at users.
In addition, we can develop test applications for your test, if you need.
VPROTO service example
This is an example system which has DMA and an interrupt function.
First, we talk about interfaces of a user logic and a library.
And we develop the system, after we propose a system architecture like an above figure.
*2 : ISR(Interrupt Service Routine)
*3 : DPC(Deferred Procedure Call)
*4 : MDL(Memory Descriptor List) The communication architecture between a kernel mode and an user mode.
