Simulate, Profile and Reduce RTL Power

PowerArtist is an all-encompassing RTL design-for-power platform of choice for leading low-power semiconductor companies for early power analysis and reduction.
PowerArtist includes physically-aware RTL power accuracy, interactive power debug, analysis-driven power reduction, unique metrics for tracking power efficiency and vector coverage.
In addition, rapid power profiling of real-life workloads, and seamless enablement of RTL-to-physical power grid integrity.

Enables early power-related design decisions.
Delivers consistent RTL power accuracy thanks to unique modeling
Physical implementation, including clock tree and mesh networks, wire capacitance, and glitch.
Technology also identifies reduction opportunities at the block and instance-level across clock network, data path and memory.
Designers can easily and efficiently debug power hotspots with the powerful GUI.

Make reliable design decisions early with unique PowerArtist PACE™ technology
Dynamically models physical effects, such as clock distribution and wire capacitance, for reliable RTL power numbers versus post-layout.

Identify power hotspots and debug their root cause interactively with a powerful graphical interface and comprehensive custom queries to database.
Increase sign-off coverage by focusing on critical power cycles identified through powerful scoring metrics and perform early power grid prototyping using RTL Power Model.

PowerArtist provides new, adaptive approaches to power system model reduction for fast and accurate time-domain simulation.
Reduce clock, memory, and logic power with high-impact block-level and instance-level RTL techniques based on production-proven foundation power analysis technology.

Another highlight of PowerArtist is dexterity. Switching activity information from RTL simulations can be used to optimize the design for dynamic power during synthesis.
However, switching activity in RTL and gate-level simulations can show wide power profile variations in the design. Both techniques and corresponding vantage points are provide in PowerArtist.
Users can also generate RTL power profiles of system application-level activity scenarios, such as OS boot up, orders of magnitude faster, and avoid late and costly surprises.

Utility and Power Generation operations and maintenance (O&M) based energy efficiency systems rely on reliable and defensible methodologies for developing energy models that provide a sound basis for quantifying savings results.
Without the capability to precisely separate the effects of O&M-type improvements from changes in production, ambient circumstances, or other energy driver variables, individual initiatives may yield to a lack of management backing or general skepticism of stated savings on the part of package evaluators.
PowerArtist resolves this conflict, outlining core steps in the UI to develop strong regression-based energy models for monitoring and recording energy savings in industrial efficiency systems.
In addition, with PowerArtist, users can prevent power creep through regular and rigorous monitoring of power and power efficiency metrics throughout your design development cycle.

PowerArtist provides the industry’s fastest power profiling capability, which can analyze the activity of real applications comprising tens of milliseconds within hours — several orders of magnitude faster than traditional approaches.
New vector analytics score vectors for peak power coverage enabling designers to identify testbench deficiencies and enabling IR flows by ranking vectors for maximum coverage with minimum cycles.
Efficient activity transfer interfaces with emulators enable fast streaming of millions of RTL activity cycles.
