基于虚拟化技术的FPGA开发平台设计

Design and Implementation of a Platform for FPGA Development Based on the Virtualization

当今集成电路设计与制造流程中,必须使用EDA工具。设计人员在开发IC新产品时使用EDA工具,将极大地降低成本、节省设计时间和提高产品的可靠性。基于虚拟化技术的网络基础架构,设计并实施了自主千万门级FPGA课题产品开发平台。该平台集成了FPGA软件开发环境和集成电路芯片设计环境,利用SVN、SOS版本管理软件和bugzilla缺陷追踪软件,对FPGA软硬件开发流程进行规范化、标准化管理。该平台采用虚拟化技术,有效地降低配置成本、提高管理效率、增加数据安全性。

EDA-tool-based IC design works have become primer abilities for new designers with features such as cost-decreasing,time-to-market shorting and reliability enhancing.This paper presents a platform for FPGA development based on the virtual desktop. It provides all environment in integrating, and sharing EDA tools and other tools such as version control system SVN,SOS,and Bug-Tracking System bugzilla. Compared with most EDA platforms,the new one can help decrease the cost,improve the management efficiency,and enhance the data security.
