Industry's First FPGA Adaptive Software Toolkit: ARM Development Studio 5 (DS-5) Altera Edition

The ARM DS-5 Altera Edition Toolkit is provided under an exclusive agreement with Intel as part of the Intel SoC Embedded Design Suite (EDS).
Combining the system development-ready ARM DS-5 tool suite with Intel SoC devices, this toolkit gives embedded developers an unparalleled level of visibility and control across the chip.

Features of the DS-5 Altera Edition

USB-Blaster alone connects to software and hardware debugging environments

Automatically generate register views for FPGA peripherals

CPU software instructions associated with application events and FPGA hardware events

Non-intrusive tracing

Hardware cross-trigger between CPU and FPGA

Simultaneous debug and trace of Cortex-A9 cores and CoreSight™ enabled IP cores synthesized on FPGA

Streamline ready: analysis of software load and bus traffic across CPU and FPGA

Industry's most advanced multi-core debugger for ARM

JTAG-based system-level debugging, gdbserver-based debugging in one package

Yocto plugin for Linux-based application development

Analysis and debugging functions for integrated OS

Hardware/software handoff

Intel's hardware/software interface utilities enable hardware and software teams to work independently and use their own familiar design flows.
These utilities generate interface files for software design flows from Quartus® II output files. A utility program generates a device tree.
A device tree is an industry standard way of describing hardware to an operating system (primarily Linux).
Specify the hardware corresponding to the board and FPGA configuration so that the corresponding driver is loaded when the kernel is launched.
