Silicon prototyping system leverages digital twins
Keysight’s USPA platform enables pre-tapeout ASIC and SoC prototyping and verification using integrated digital twins of compliant, standards-based signals. The M8135A/M8136A universal signal processing architecture (USPA) platform provides a real-time development environment that can reduce the risk, cost, and time associated with silicon chip prototyping and verification.
To minimize the risks of design failures and expensive re-spins, USPA employs digital twin signaling to verify designs before they are committed to silicon. Fast ADC and DAC interfaces emulate signals at full speed, up to 68 Gsamples/s and 72 Gsamples/s, respectively, to support optical communication development projects.
The modular FPGA-based prototyping system furnishes a range of I/O interfaces that support 6G wireless development, digital radio frequency memory (DRFM), and physics research. It can also be used for high-speed data acquisition applications, including radar channel emulation and radio astronomy.
USPA is available in two versions. The M8135A is a preconfigured system for single-channel transceiver applications. The M8136A is a fully configurable set of modular components that can be combined to accommodate both single-channel and multichannel operation.
