ADVISORY/Carbon Exhibits at Design Automation Conference, Shows How To Improve Hardware Regression Performance and Validate Software Up To 50X Faster.News Editors/High-Tech Writers ADVISORY...for Monday (June 7) Design Automation Conference 2004 --(BUSINESS WIRE) New EDA (1) (Electronic Design Automation) Using the computer to design, lay out, verify and simulate the performance of electronic circuits on a chip or printed circuit board. Product Compiles Like a Simulator (1) Software that enables the execution of an application written for a different computer environment. Same as emulator. (2) Software that models the interactions of hypothetical or real-world objects or business processes. , Runs Like an Emulator, Deploys Like Software, and Plays Like Silicon Who Carbon Design Systems is a fast moving EDA company that reduces the time-to-profit for chip and systems companies by improving hardware regression performance and enabling software validation The certification that an information system has been implemented correctly and that it conforms to the functional specifications derived from the original requirements. Such validation is often performed by a third party consulting organization. to begin much earlier than traditional methods. Carbon is demonstrating its products at the Design Automation Conference (DAC See D/A converter and discretionary access control. DAC - Digital to Analog Converter ) for the first time. What Carbon's DesignPlayer(TM) engine is used for hardware, software, and customer validation. DesignPlayer runs 10-50X faster than popular simulators, while maintaining cycle and register accuracy. -- Hardware designers now have the cycles they need to run complete regression suites before tapeout. -- Software designers can finally test and debug To correct a problem in hardware or software. Debugging software means locating the errors in the source code (the program logic). Debugging hardware means finding errors in the circuit design (logical circuits) or in the physical interconnections of the circuits. their code on a high performance, cycle accurate, linkable model. -- Customers get an executable spec that contains the silicon errata er·ra·ta n. Plural of erratum. for system integration and test. When/Where June 7 - 10, Booth Number #4416 at the San Diego Convention Center The San Diego Convention Center is the main convention center for the city of San Diego, California. It is located in the Marina district of downtown San Diego near the Gaslamp Quarter, at 111 West Harbor Drive.

About Carbon Carbon is delivering software products that enable high-performance pre-silicon chip and system validation. Carbon's single engine solution -- DesignPlayer -- can be used for hardware, software, and customer design validation. The DesignPlayer engine boosts hardware regression performance and validates drivers, diagnostics, & firmware A category of memory chips that hold their content without electrical power. Firmware includes flash, ROM, PROM, EPROM and EEPROM technologies. When holding program instructions, firmware can be thought of as "hard software." See flash memory, ROM, PROM, EPROM, EEPROM and FOTA. up to 50X faster with cycle and register accuracy. A low-cost executable or linkable model can be deployed across the enterprise and to customers without the encumbrances of a slow simulator.
