New hardware platform revolutionizes microprocessor verification and evaluation process.
The article discusses a new method for testing and evaluating a high-performance microprocessor called Loongson2F. Instead of using separate platforms for logic function verification and performance testing, the researchers developed a hardware verification platform that can do both tasks efficiently. This platform allows for verifying the logic function before the actual CPU chip is made, and then evaluating the CPU performance after the chip is produced. This approach saves time and resources compared to traditional methods.
