Cadence Virtual System Platform Used by Missing Link
Electronics to Dramatically Reduce Time-to-Market for
Automotive Infotainment and Medical Systems
Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: CDNS), a leader in
global electronic design innovation, today announced that
the company's
virtual
platform for the
Xilinx Zynq™-7000 Extensible Processing Platform (EPP)
is available as a production release. Designed to
streamline the embedded software development process, the
virtual platform enables simultaneous development of
hardware and software before hardware availability,
providing significant savings in development costs and
time-to-market. The Zynq-7000 EPP virtual platform, built
on the
Cadence® Virtual System Platform, was already used by
Missing Link
Electronics, a Cadence customer and Xilinx Certified
Alliance Program Member to design an application
development platform for automotive infotainment and
medical systems. Demonstrations of Missing Link
Electronics' platform are available this week at
Xilinx's booth (1.205 in Hall 1) at Embedded World in
Nuremberg, Germany.
"Time-to-market is extremely important for our
customers' new smart products, and the challenge lies
in the software complexity," said Endric Schubert,
founder and CTO of Missing Link Electronics, Inc. "The
Cadence virtual platform enables us to regularly
pre-validate our rich open source software stack, even when
decoupled from our FPGA hardware development
environment."
"Stable, high-performance software applications are
critical to the success of any sophisticated embedded
system," said Micha
