2 years agothe Palladium platform from Cadence is a sophisticated emulation system designed to handle the verification and debugging of complex System-on-Chip (SoC) designs
The iXCOM tool from Cadence is part of their Protium™ X2 emulation/prototyping platform. It is used to enhance the efficiency and performance of simulation acceleration. Specifically, iXCOM helps in compiling large netlist files more efficiently by reusing existing netlists, which significantly reduces overall compile time 1.
This tool is particularly useful in the stages of compile, place and route, and runtime within the Protium flow 2. It supports both ICE (In-Circuit Emulation) and IXCOM modes, making it versatile for various design and verification tasks 2.
