Free PowerPro-filer Power Profiling Software
At DAC, Calypto Design Systems Inc. will give free copies of PowerPro-filer on a one gigabyte memory stick. PowerPro-filer is a utility that calculates Clock-Gating Efficiency and the percentage of registers clock gated in an RTL design block. PowerPro-filer is a Linux program that reads synthesizable Verilog RTL activity vector file (SAIF or VCD) and reports how well a register transfer level (RTL) design is optimized for power by providing designers with Clock-Gating Efficiency statistics. Clock-gating Efficiency correlates directly to how well a designer's clock gating implementation impacts dynamic power.
During the Design Automation Conference, Calypto will demonstrate how toy reduce power and improve design quality using PowerPro[tm] CG (clock gating) for automated RTL power optimization and SLEC[tm] (Sequential Logic Equivalence Checker) for functional verification. Calypto will also participate in the following sessions:
