Prodigy ProtoBridge

An FPGA-transaction management software

FPGA-based prototypes closely resemble final silicon chips in speed and accuracy, providing significant value in full-chip validation and early software development. Realizing these benefits has historically been met with the need to build additional hardware with significant resources and specialized expertise having to be employed to obtain the necessary FPGA connectivity.

The unique Prodigy ProtoBridge AXI FPGA-transaction coordinator softwareuses the widely adopted AXI-4 bus protocol to link software running on host PC to the FPGA-based prototyping environment. The result of Host DUT connectivity is a high-throughput channel that allows for the transfer of large amounts of transaction-level data between the FPGA(s) and a host computer.

Features of Prodigy Proto Bridge
