GateRocket(R) Adds Xilinx Virtex-6 Support to Industry-Leading FPGA Verification and Debug Solution

New RocketDrive® Configurations Support Industry’s Most Advanced Xilinx FPGA Family With Tiered Offering Optimized for Different Device Models

BEDFORD, MA, Jun 01, 2010 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) — GateRocket, Inc., the leading supplier of verification and debug solutions for advanced FPGAs, today announced new versions of its popular RocketDrive® product that incorporate FPGAs from the Xilinx Virtex®-6 family of high performance programmable devices and significantly reduce the verification and debug time associated with these leading-edge devices. The Virtex-6 FPGAs are the highest performing and most advanced FPGAs available, allowing true system-on-chip (SoC) level integration that is well-suited to the needs of a wide range of electronic products.

GateRocket’s RocketDrive cuts verification and lab debug time in half versus traditional FPGA design approaches. This is accomplished by integrating the FPGA into the HDL simulator to provide a “hardware in the loop” process based on GateRocket’s proprietary Device Native® methodology. This technique allows execution of the design on the target FPGA device. By combining the actual FPGA hardware and RTL simulation models in the same verification run, this solution reduces verification and lab debugging time significantly.
