Implementation Options to Achieve Market-Leading Power, Performance and Area for Arm IP
Arm offers a range of options for physical implementation to suit your needs, starting from best practice guidelines in the iRM, through to comprehensive physical implementation services and Arm POP IP technology.
Arm Physical Implementation Services
Arm offers two types of services to cover the full spectrum of physical design closure:
Implementation Reference Methodology (iRM)
Arm provides a worked implementation example for specific cores, which is a fixed configuration on a specific process node using a specific EDA tool. iRMs contain documents and constraint files and are shipped with Arm IP deliverables.
You may decide to extract best practice from the iRM, however we recommend that you also consider some additional physical implementation services from Arm, and/or Arm POP IP solutions.
Featured Products
POP IP
POP IP is optimized for a given market segment, for a particular Arm CPU or cluster of cores, on a technology process node using a collection of optimized Arm Physical IP.
Artisan Physical IP
Arm Artisan physical IP platforms include Logic IP and supporting Architect products, Embedded Memory Compilers, and Interface IP.
