PrimeXsys Platforms
The ARM PrimeXsys platform comprises a
range of licensable integrated IP blocks, including hardware,
software and integration tools, designed to provide an
extendable solution, with which customers can develop a wide
variety of application focused devices in a time and cost
effective manner.
A key feature of the ARM PrimeXsys platform is the tools
support and methodology that enables the platform to be
extended for product differentiation. These state-of-the-art
verification and validation testbenches enable customers to
focus their resources on extending the platform with additional
IP, while continuing to meet the basic functional requirements
of the specific application. The ARM PrimeXsys platform can be
extended through the integration of additional hardware and
software in the form of customer's proprietary IP, ARM
PrimeCell Peripherals third party IP blocks, or additional
processors (including DSPs), to produce a highly differentiated
ASIC while maintaining the core functionality. ARM's PrimeXsys
platforms have been designed to support leading consumer
operating systems (OS), including Linux, Symbian OS, Palm OS
and Windows CE.
The first ARM PrimeXsys platform, the PrimeXsys Wireless
Platform is based around the ARM926EJ-S microprocessor core,
which incorporates ARM Jazelle technology for Java
acceleration, a multi-layer AMBA bus and PrimeCell
Peripherals. In addition to the ARM926EJ-S system core ARM
plans to offer further platform solutions based upon other
members of its range of high performance CPU range.
