Overview
The need to simulate the entire system, not just the TPU, led to
the development of ASH WARE's TPU/CPU System Simulator. In 2001, most
active TPU Stand-Alone Simulator customers switched to the TPU/CPU
System Simulator in order to take advantages of its advanced features.
But the drawback is that system simulation is inherently more complex.
To address the complexity issue, ASH WARE recruited Amy Dyson, who
developed the original TPU course for Freescale and who wrote the
highly regarded "TPU Microcoding for Beginners" book, to develop a
course on TPU/CPU system simulation. This three-day course is geared
toward both stand-alone and system simulation users. Topics include
the following:
- Test automation;
- Test vector and script commands files;
- Interrupts;
- The new logic analzyer window;
- External logic simulation;
- Functional verification, including data flow, pin transition,
and code coverage;
- Advanced custom model development including shared memory and
coherency issues;
- Model limitations.
Included with the course itself is a 180-page set of printed course
notes that provide labs at the end of each chapter.
Time is money. You can shorten your learning curve by attending this
course!
Training Schedule
We teach this course on a regular basis in both Europe and the United
States. We can also give the course at your site. Contact ASH WARE
