Wipro's solution was the design and implementation
of three Network processing ASIC designs with
combined gate count complexity of more than 1.8
million gates (excluding on-chip RAMs). This was
done by a team of 35 engineers in a short span
of 10 months.
The design cycle extended from design/coding
stage to synthesis. Wipro's team of board engineers
delivered the design of a variety of physical
interface cards for the IP switch product, as
well as "functionality testing through board
level simulation" and "ensuring timing
through signal integrity checks". Successful
boot-up was achieved within a few hours of powering
up on all boards.
Key highlights of the project
included:
 |
Extensive use of tools for high quality
RTL implementation
|
|
Early floor planning of I/O and on-chip
macros
|
|
System level simulation
|
Subsequently, Wipro's software team developed the
firmware, network management and protocol software
for the switch.
The Chipset design was a first silicon success.
Our extensive experience in cutting-edge ASIC
and board development, knowledge in networking,
large pool of experienced designers, proven design
practices and a rich & industry standard tool
set allowed the client to beta test the switch
well ahead of their competition.
