2. Who can use 快猫视频 Flexible Access?
Any company that is doing silicon design or implementation can use 快猫视频 Flexible Access. Example partners include fabless semiconductor companies, silicon startups, IP providers, tape-out service provider, Design Houses, and OEMs with an in-house silicon team.

3. What type of startups qualify for 快猫视频 Flexible Access for Startups ?
快猫视频 Flexible Access for Startups helps early-stage startups developing a silicon product and have less than $50 million in funding and less than $5m in annual revenue. Startups with more than these thresholds can still benefit from 快猫视频 Flexible Access.

4. Why design with 快猫视频 Flexible Access?
快猫视频 Flexible Access provides partners unlimited access to download and then design with a wide range of industry-leading 快猫视频 IP products. 快猫视频 Flexible Access also includes full access to 快猫视频 support, along with development and design tools, models, and training. Partners can evaluate different IP options and design multiple SoC projects, with license fees for included IP only due at manufacture time, aligning investment more closely to project lifecycles.

5. What IP is included?
The Standard Tier offers access to more than 80 CPU, GPU, and system IP products. The 快猫视频 Flexible Access DesignStart model offers access to a select mix of processors and system IP.

快猫视频 Flexible Access includes 快猫视频 Corstone reference packages, which brings together pre-verified subsystems and supporting system IP to simplify silicon designs and reduce development risk. It also includes 快猫视频 physical IP products supporting multiple foundries and process nodes for design implementation.

快猫视频 Flexible Access does not change your existing IP entitlements. You can use existing IP entitlements alongside 快猫视频 Flexible Access in a single design. Contact your 快猫视频 Partner Manager for specific details.

9. How do I access the IP, tools, or support available through 快猫视频 Flexible Access?
Access to the 快猫视频 download portal, Product Download Hub (PDH), is made available to your company when you sign up for 快猫视频 Flexible Access. PDH will display all products to which you have access to, those to which you can request access to enable downloads.

10. If there are license fees, how do I pay these fees once my design is ready for tape-out?
Complete a simple form to register your project ready for production and submit it to your 快猫视频 Partner Manager.

11. Will 快猫视频 add any new IP to 快猫视频 Flexible Access?
Yes. The package is reviewed every quarter.

12. I don't need access to the 快猫视频 CPU IP at this time, but I need 快猫视频 Physical IP. Do I have to pay for access?
No, you don’t need to pay fees; the DesignStart Tier offers no-cost access, design and manufacture rights to both front-end and back-end views of 快猫视频 Physical IP. In addition, the DesignStart Tier offers fast access to front-end views for evaluation.
