Enhanced Platform Based SOC Design Including Extended Peripheral Selection and Automated IP Customization Facilitation An EDA tool suite is provided to facilitate SOC design in a platform based manner, by first facilitating the selection of a compute engine, then supporting peripheral devices layered upon the compute engine in at least a single peripheral layer. In various embodiments, the EDA tool suite includes pre-processing functions to identify connectivity of an IP component, and automatic creation of a user interface to facilitate provision of customization inputs. The EDA tool suite further includes bus bridges bridging a plurality of bus architecture pairs, and component selection facilities that automatically provides an expanded list of components for selection, including components connectable to a selected compute engine by way of a pre-provided bus bridge, responsive to the selection of the compute engine.
