Overview of BDTI Engineering Services

Whether you’re designing a new embedded processor chip or a new end product that uses embedded processors, BDTI offers an array of engineering services to help you and your products shine:

Choosing an embedded processor

• Benchmarking. BDTI sets the the industry standard for performance analysis of embedded processors via its BDTI Benchmarks—a rigorous, unbiased, fact-based approach to understanding processor performance.
  • If you’re building a new SoC or system, BDTI’s benchmarks let you choose your embedded processor with confidence. If your needs are complex or specialized, a BDTI processor selection consulting engagement can assist you.
  • If you’re a processor or chip designer, the BDTI Benchmarks help you understand where your design excels—and where it could be improved.

Designing your product or system

• Turnkey system design. We can take your idea from concept to finished product, handling both the hardware and software.
• Software development. BDTI's experienced engineers can develop complete, optimized applications from scratch. We've worked on processors from ARM to Zoran, in C and assembly, on apps from audio to video.
  BDTI is a member of Qualcomm’s QDSP Access Program, enabling BDTI to provide software services to algorithm developers that want their software running on a Qualcomm chipset. Membership in the QDSP Access Program gives BDTI access to tools and resources to implement multimedia applications on Qualcomm Snapdragon processors.
• FPGA design. Our services include hardware design, especially using FPGAs. We are intimately familiar with the latest FPGA high-level synthesis tools from a variety of vendors—allowing us to execute complex, high-performance designs in a fraction of the time required by conventional HDL-based design.
  BDTI, through the Xilinx Alliance Partner program, leverages its expertise with high-level synthesis design tools and embedded software implementation for the Xilinx Zynq Extensible Processing Platform.

Strengthening your existing product or system

• Design reviews.  Need a second set of eyes on your design? A BDTI design review will improve your product and let you proceed on the right path.
• Software optimization. We can make your existing code do tricks you never dreamed of. Our benchmarking knowledge and wide experience with different architectures and algorithms lets us turn in jaw-dropping results.

Seeing how you stack up

• Competitive analysis. Need an independent perspective on how your products stack up against the competition? A BDTI competitive analysis gives you a map of where you fit in the competitive landscape—and advice on what to do about it.
