Models are available through Carbon IP Exchange for designers using SoC Designer Plus. Carbon IP Exchange is a recently introduced web-based portal with round-the-clock availability where models are generated directly from ARM’s register transfer level (RTL) code using Carbon Model Studio. Models are constructed to ensure proper configurations and made available for secure download. Processor models can be used with Carbon’s SoC Designer Plus virtual platform and feature interactive debugging using ARM’s Realview Debugger. Other features include semi-hosting, program loading and detailed hardware/software profiling.
