Mellanox TechnologiesWe have selected Imperas simulation tools and RISC-V models for our design verification flow because of the quality of the models and the ease of use of the Imperas environment.
Imperas reference model of the complete RISC-V specification, the ability to add our custom instructions to the model and their experience with processor RTL DV flows were also important to our decision.

Recore SystemsImperas allowed us to quickly add our own components and build the topologies which we wanted to test. We had our first demo up and running in 20 minutes, and it took us just a few days to build a reference hardware architecture based on components in the Extendable Platform Kit (EPK). Last but not least, after just a few months we could start playing with our own many-core operating system on our many-core hardware design. The ease of use of the EPK, together with excellent Imperas documentation and support, have kick-started our FlexaWare platform development.
