Posedge has announced the availability of its 'Multifunction Non-Volatile Memory IP Platform' for SOC designers supporting them to choose any memory solution like Serial Flash, NAND Flash, NOR Flash, SRAM or SD/eMMC host. It has all the required connectors for SD/MMC devices and plug-in sockets for NAND/NOR/SFlash/SRAM ICs. Posedge explains by plugging the board of the IP platform into a standard Linux PC and with the Posedge IP Platform Driver kit, a designer can test and evaluate their complete solution for all NVM interfaces at the application level.

The IP platform has tools to select an IP along with required bit files and software drivers to enable users to run performance analysis specific to their design. Subsequently Posedge will provide the exact matching RTL cores along with the test benches, synthesis scripts and software drivers.
