Tensilica has signed a partnership agreement with Imperas to allow fast functional, instruction accurate models of its popular Xtensa and Diamond Standard processors to run on Open Virtual Platform (OVP) based virtual platforms. Specifically, wrapper files enabling integration of the Tensilica processor models are now available for free download from the OVPworld.org website. These models will run with Tensilica’s TurboXim fast functional simulator, which simulates at speeds 40 to 80 times faster than a traditional instruction set simulator.
