Carbon Design Systems, Inc
125 Nagog Park - Acton, MA 01720 USA

Carbon's mission is to reduce the time to market for system on chip (SoC) designs by providing a unified virtual platform which meets the system level design needs of the architect, firmware developer and software engineer.
Carbon is completely focused on the following crucial elements:
Speed : A virtual platform must execute quickly enough to enable the entire design team to be productive
Accuracy : Even the fastest virtual platform should always have a link to 100% accuracy to enable real problems to be isolated and debugged
Automation : Platforms and models should be standards-based and be capable of being developed and widely deployed without incurring costly consulting services.

Carbon Design Systems - Products

Carbon provides a full suite of tools to quickly assemble a unified virtual prototype which can be used by all designers.
SoC Designer Plus, enables the same platform assembled by the architects to optimize their architectural decisions to be used for software development
Carbon Model Studio automates the creation of models with 100% accuracy. These models provide an automatic path to jumpstart the model creation process and deliver hardware accuracy to any virtual platform.
This same modeling technology has enabled Carbon to establishes numerous relationships with key IP vendors such as ARM, MIPS, CEVA, Cadence... Models from these vendors and many more are available via Carbon IP Exchange, a web portal to configure, build, manage and download IP models.
