Power System IP for SOC System Design
Overview
Power Canvas is No-code based generative System IP
that supports Full-Custom SOC Power System
Power Canvas is a system IP that enables custom design of power control systems within SoCs. As SoCs grow more complex, the cost and time needed to set up power control systems are also increasing.
Additionally, errors from this increased complexity are a major cause of respins and ECOs, which can severely impact project schedules. To solve these challenges, a new design approach is needed.
Key Benefits
Design smarter, consume less
01
Time Saving
Power Canvas allows for the design of power systems for SoCs with dozens of power domains in less than a week using an intuitive GUI. Designs created through the GUI can be generated as RTL output in under 10 minutes.
The output accuracy is guaranteed to be 100% through cross-checking of a precise software framework and hardware model.
02
Leakage Power Reduction
Due to fully hardware level domain-dedicated power control systems, in idle period, leakage power consumption of chip can be reduced up to 90%. Any system domain can have their own power management system. Software is non real time management system, but power canvas enables real time power management and chip can have more chances to save power.
03
Built in DFT
DFT (Design for Test) is challenging because the system engineers and DFT engineers are usually separate. With power canvas, DFT inserted power controllers are automatically generated based on the IEEE 1687 standard. This allows for a true “design for test” approach, where test information is created right from the design stage.
Features
Support for every need in system design
Power control system design without single line of verilog code. You only draw your system in canvas, we can generate function codes. Any combination of systems will operate without errors.
