The Xtensa Processor Generator
A “generic” Xtensa processor does
not exist. Each instance of the processor architecture
is uniquely tuned by the system designer to ideally
fit the SOC’s targeted application. The designer can select
from a broad selection of predefined standard RISC
microprocessor options
and can add instructions and register extensions
to the tailored processor. Or the designer can use Tensilica's XPRES Compiler to automatically tailor the processor to optimize existing C/C++ code. The Xtensa Processor Generator
then creates the complete processor solution set
- pre-verified processor hardware description in source RTL
(Verilog or VHDL), plus supporting hardware implementation
methodology scripts. This complete package includes
software development tools including commercial
RTOS support, and comprehensive system modeling
and modeling co-verification support.
