Virtual Platform
Virtual development environment to accelerate automotive software development
For customers of Automotive SoC, R-Car, Renesas offers the R-Car Virtual Platform enabling software development before silicon is available - Shift-left of Software development and System verification for Next-generation vehicles.
R-Car Virtual Platform (VPF)
R-Car VPF is a simulation environment to enable Software design without a device sample. It emulates the function of an R-Car device at the register interface to enable Software design as though the device was available.
- To start Software design pre-silicon and then migrate seamlessly to Software design on the device sample.
- To execute System verification, where device and control software operate cooperatively, pre-silicon.
- To execute Regression test of software during both pre-silicon and post-silicon development phases.
Major features
- R-Car VPF integrates CPU models and software can be executed on these CPU models.
- Read / write access to memory space such as DRAM.
- Address map and calculation accuracy are exactly the same as those of the device.
