Evaluation software

Why it exists and what it decides

Design partners need to exercise the chip quickly without writing low level code themselves. Good evaluation software shortens evaluations and produces comparable results. Without it, partners struggle to get the chip running, report setup problems instead of real feedback and may abandon the evaluation.

Decisions it informs

• Which features and examples to provide for each partner's use case
• Whether the software is stable enough to release to partners
• Whether the design partner validation gate can be passed on the evidence gathered
