Prototype Enables new Synergy – how Artosyn Helps their Customers Succeed

SAN JOSE, Calif., March 9, 2022 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --
Artosyn Microelectronics, a leading provider of AI SoCs for drones and other
sophisticated applications finds itself at the intersection of hardware
architecture and software development. "Our customers are advancing the state
of AI programming every day," said Shen Sha, Senior R&D Manager of Artosyn's AI
Chip Department. "They need early access to the hardware to develop their
software. It's imperative."
Since 2015, Artosyn has specialized in Image Signal Processors(ISPs) and Neural
Processing Units(NPUs), highly advanced ASIC devices that must meet the
demanding requirements of low-power and high-performance. These systems
represent the most advanced generation of controllers today, employing
artificial intelligence for such tasks as object detection, object
classification, and object tracking. Artosyn's chips are at the heart of the
latest generation of UAVs(drones), as well as being used in smart surveillance
systems, robots, autonomous vehicles, and more.
These are designs of enormous size and complexity, and verifying their correct
operation presents its own challenges. "We've used many of S2C's FPGA
development systems including their single and dual Prodigy VU440 and UV19P
systems," explains Sha. "We were able to successfully complete the validation
of several complex chips in the hundred-million gate range quickly and
efficiently."
But validating hardware still leaves millions of lines of code to test and
verify. As a company dedicated to the customer experience, Artosyn looks for
creative ways to help: "In some cases we've used the large capacity FPGA-based
systems from S2C to directly built a prototype for the customer's evaluation,"
said Sha. "This really accelerates their software development process."
Sharing the power of S2C's Prodigy VU440 enabled both companies to leverage a
unique form of cooperation – Artosyn was able to swiftly validate their
100-million gate design, and their customer gained access to the hardware
critical to furthering their development schedule. Moreover, Artosyn benefits
from additional insight by working so closely with their customer; knowledge
that helps drive improvements in their own designs. It's a win for both firms.
S2C specializes in providing leading-edge prototyping platforms for a broad
range of design sizes and applications. Built around the world's largest and
fastest FPGAs – such as the Xilinx UltraScale+ VU19P, and the Intel Stratix 10
– S2C's Prodigy series can scale up to accommodate the largest designs in the
hyperscale class. With a rich library of memories, daughter cards, and
interface modules, Prodigy systems can be quickly adapted and configured for
any purpose. If you're facing the challenge of large-scale design validation,
let us help.
