Cadence Protium S1 FPGA-based Prototyping platform for ASICs

The Cadence Protium S1 FPGA based prototyping platform is the advanced prototyping platform from Cadence. It comes with the capabilities of early software development, throughput regressions, and high performance system validations.
Cadence Protium S1 FPGA-based Prototyping Platform
The Cadence Protium S1 FPGA platform comes along with the debugging software suite for high-capacity FPGA boards based on Virtex Ultrascale FPGAs. This improves the ease of use with respect to the developers and ultra-fast design bring-up. The Protium platform is also compatible with Palladium platforms and SpeedBring adaptors. This helps the developers to shift easily from SoC design to a high performance FPGA-based prototype.

Early Software Development:
The software development process of a design is to be as early as possible. FPGA-based prototyping has been serving from long time to achieve this goal. However, board bring-up is facing deceleration by the factors growing complex designs and lesser time-to-market. With Cadence Protium S1, the board bring-up can be achieved just within weeks or sometimes even in days. This is achieved by the combination of hardware and software platforms, that provides fully integrated implementation design flow along with advanced abilities of debugging.
System Validation:
System Validation using FPGAs has become very easy due to their high speed, external system connections and small form factor. This helps the design team to validate their IP and SoC designs with actual system environment. When compared to previous generations of prototyping platforms, Protium S1 helps the board bring-up activities and system validation to be better.
Throughput Regression:
With Cadence Protium platform, exhaustive regression tests can be run on a given design. The users will be capable of running regression tests quickly, while coping up with the integrity of Design Under Test (DUT). The Palladium XP Verification Computing Platform and the Palladium Z1 Enterprise Emulation Platform, together, can optimize throughput of regression speed within the limits of the budget. Also, this prototyping platform comes with the best core engines, solutions that increase design quality and verification of fabric technologies, comprehensively called Cadence Verification Suite.
