Technology Benefits

In a market niche that is seriously underserved by productivity tools, the CSRSpec™ language and CSRCompiler™ system bring a practical approach to standards. They integrate design, verification, software and documentation teams with a single-source specification. Using this specification, CSRCompiler auto-generates all necessary views and instantly regenerates them for each revision, minimizing the risk to projects, profit, customers and careers.

For RTL Architects

Making your life easier: simple design capture and standardized, self-checking authoring; clean, standard RTL; 100% accurate documentation auto-generated in Word or FrameMaker.

For Software Developers

Our benefits include: consistent documentation; single-source spec that generates both RTL and Header files; early software access to the address map layout and features.

For Verification Engineers

Take advantage of: consistent documentation; a single-source spec that generates the SystemVerilog testbench register model and register information for the virtual prototype; shorthand of nets for backdoor paths.

For Tech Pubs

Always 100% accurate: 100% accurate documentation auto-generated in Word or FrameMaker; generate multiple document views and/or formats from the same source.
