High-Level Synthesis & Verification

Siemens' High-Level Synthesis (HLS) and Verification (HLV) platform improves your ASIC and FPGA design and verification flow when compared to traditional RTL. Using C++ or SystemC Catapult delivers leading quality of results for performance, power, and area, in addition to unique HLV solutions.

TRENDS & TECHNOLOGIES

RTL Design & Verification is Too Slow & Expensive

RTL productivity, especially for new and complex value-add blocks, has stalled. The design and verification challenges of creating new and novel architectures that deliver advantages in silicon for Wireless, 5G, AI/ML, Automotive, or Video/Image processing isn’t making life easier for design teams.

Architecture Exploration

Will your hardware be system performance limited? Did you pick the right fundamental memory architecture? Or did you only find out during system integration? High-Level Synthesis accelerates your design space exploration.

Optimal Power Performance and Area

Delivering an optimal balance of Performance, Power and Area for your design needs is hard. Too little performance, too much power or too much area and you might miss a product cycle. Leverage HLS to design better and faster.

Are You Still Debugging RTL?

Discovering bugs late in RTL means missed opportunities, less competitive silicon, tape out delays and ECO headaches. Catapult HLS design and verification delivers right-first-time RTL designs, with reduced server and tool cost.
