ZeBu-Diamond
The ZeBu-Diamond Emulation Kit is a comprehensive development platform for emulating Tensilica Diamond Standard cores and initiate software development and debug early in the SOC design cycle.
The Tensilica’s Diamond Cores encompass a family of optimized controllers, CPUs and DSPs based on a common Xtensa Instruction Set Architecture (ISA), a 5-stage pipeline, high performance, low power 32-bit architecture.
ZeBu-Diamond uses the latest and fastest Xilinx Virtex-4 FPGA and is fully controllable from a PC offering flexibility and ease of use. You can download programs and data into the on-board memory, as well as read the memory contents into the PC during execution.
The ZeBu-Diamond Kit comes pre-loaded with your choice of pre-compiled and pre-verified Diamond cores.
