Design-for-Prototyping beats the three laws

FONT SIZE : AAA

Design-for-Prototyping guidelines fall into two groups; procedural guidelines and  design guidelines.  

We summarize the procedural guidelines in Table 37 and the design guidelines are  not repeated here but instead are included in full in chapter 9.  

It is hard to imagine that we will be fully successful if we only follow one set of the guidelines, however. If we had to choose just one, then it is the procedural  guidelines that are probably the more important set.

The secret of success in many prototyping projects is in this integration of the  prototypers with the rest of the SoC design team. This must lead to the inclusion of  the prototypers’ needs and their feedback at the early stages of the SoC project.  Then, with only small changes to procedure and design style, the success of FPGA based prototyping can be guaranteed. In return, the software and RTL parts of the  SoC are introduced at the earliest possible opportunity with minimum effort,  addressing the critical development effort of most SoC projects today, the  embedded software.
