DAFCA is an EDA software company focused on post-silicon SoC validation, debug, and in-system bring-up. DAFCA's tools allow design teams to seamlessly incorporate our patented and compact reconfigurable instrumentation IP into their devices, pre-silicon, in order to observe, discover, and diagnose at-speed, in-silicon functional behavior.
Physical device validation and debug is the most expensive and unpredictable stage of design implementation; DAFCA tools provide on-chip visibility, which leads to dramatically lower development and integration costs. ClearBlue™ Instrumentation Studio is a powerful, easy to use, pre-silicon environment for insertion of reconfigurable instruments directly into RTL. ClearBlue™ Silicon Validation Studio offers a wide spectrum of in-system, at-speed analysis capabilities, including logic analyzers, event-based validation and assertion-based debug, and performance monitoring. ClearBlue™ is compatible by design with all major EDA tool flows.«Less

| Description: | DAFCA's ClearBlue Silicon Validation Platform is a design automation system for use in post silicon validation. It provides a comprehensive suite of post silicon applications designed to reduce the time between first silicon availability and volume production. ClearBlue is composed of an extensive set of applications designed to accelerate first silicon bring-up, ease hardware and software integration, enable in-silicon performance monitoring, and in general, provide a comprehensive platform for inspection and diagnosis of on-chip, at-speed behavior. Only through the application of innovative validation solutions will companies reduce the time for post-silicon development and related expenses associated with delayed product release. Development of nano-era SoC devices necessitates superior tools that allow teams to not just observe circuit behavior but subject circuits to stress and fault conditions, allowing the early discovery and diagnosis of integration problems, configuration problems, and unexpected behaviors resulting from functional, signal integrity, power, or process related issues. DAFCA's ClearBlue solution enables the discovery of such problems and facilitates an understanding of how such problems manifest themselves functionally. Most importantly, ClearBlue can help isolate the scope of such problems, allowing silicon bring-up teams to more narrowly focus time and expense for root cause identification and resolution. Below is a brief description of the major components of ClearBlue Silicon Validation Platform. |
