Impulse CoValidator™ HDL Test Bench Generator |
Impulse CoValidator™ generates HDL compatible with all IEEE-compliant VHDL simulators, and also generates scripts for ModelSim®, allowing you to generate HDL test benches and launch simulation with just a few keystrokes. Catch errors before place-and-route, saving hours, days or even weeks of development time. Generate an HDL test bench, data files, and simulator scripts for hardware validation and hardware/software equivalency checking. |

Impulse CoDeveloper™ Embedded/DSP Kit |
Impulse CoDeveloper™ is ideal for DSP application development. Get started fast with software-to-hardware programming. Impulse now offers a classroom-ready kit for teaching FPGA programming concepts. Learn how to develop C code that can be synthesized to run as hardware and/or as software on an FPGA. This kit enables students to quickly move individual algorithms or entire systems to an FPGA. Students can quickly experiment with hardware/software partitioning, parallel processing, pipeline optimization, floating- and fixed-point math, and more. This kit features a Xilinx Spartan 3A FPGA board, and includes all required design tools and libraries for fast development of advanced DSP and embedded applications. A companion textbook is available.

Impulse C™ Math and Image Processing Libraries |
Impulse provides standard and customised IP libraries for application domains.
The Impulse C™ Math and Image Processing Libraries accelerate your FPGA based algorithm development and extend the operations provided in Impulse C. Library components are provide with standard C-language function prototypes, allowing them to be easily invoked from C, using the same function calling methods C programmers are familiar with. These C-callable functions represent optimised hardware elements that are instantiated, through the use of synthesis and place-and-route tools, in the target FPGA.
The math.h Library implements standard C math.h functions. This library is provided as a set of HDL files and related configuration files implementing common mathematical operations. Most of these functions involve the use of floating point numbers, either single or double-precision. The Impulse C math.h library is royalty free; all of the included elements can be incorporated into your projects with no restrictions or deployment fees.
THe Image Processing Library adds components for video and image processing, including convolutions filters, colour converters and other useful functions and modules. |
