Heterogenous Integration Creating New IP Opportunities
By Brian Bailey - 19 Jul, 2022 - Comments: 0

The design IP market has long been known for constant change and evolution, but the industry trend toward heterogenous integration and chiplets is creating some new challenges and opportunities. Companies wanting to stake out a claim in this area have to be nimble, because there will be many potential standards introduced, and they are likely to change quickly as the industry explores what is r... » read more

Software Infrastructure For Silicon Lifecycle Management
By Siemens EDA - 12 Jul, 2022 - Comments: 0

Semiconductor technology continues to deliver higher levels of logic density in the era of nanometer processes. System-on-chip (SoC) teams can deliver even higher functionality when coupled with the massive integration possibilities of three-dimensional integrated circuit (3DIC) architectures. However, this growth must be matched by increases in capabilities and productivity in the collection a... » read more

Time For FMEDA Reuse?
By Stefano Lorenzini - 07 Jul, 2022 - Comments: 0

How do designers quantify safety in electronic systems? Through one or more tables called Failure Modes, Effects and Diagnostic Analysis – FMEDA. In fact, an FMEDA does not have to be a table; it could be manifested in scripts or some other form, but a table is the easiest way to think of this information. Think of an FMEDA for an IP, as the concept extends easily to a system-on-chip (SoC). T... » read more

IP Industry Transformation
By Brian Bailey - 09 Jun, 2022 - Comments: 0

The design IP industry is developing an assortment of new options and licensing schemes that could affect everything from how semiconductor companies collaborate to how ICs are designed, packaged, and brought to market. The IP market already has witnessed a sweeping shift from a "design once, use everywhere" approach, to an "architect once, customize everywhere" model, in which IP is highly ... » read more

Automotive Bandwidth Issues Grow As Data Skyrockets
By Ann Mutschler - 02 Jun, 2022 - Comments: 0

Bandwidth requirements for future vehicles are set to explode as the amount of data moving within vehicles, between vehicles, and between vehicles and infrastructure, continues to grow rapidly. That data will be necessary for a variety of functions, some of which are here today and many of which are still in development. On the safety side, that includes everything from early warning systems... » read more

Software-Defined Cars
By Ann Mutschler - 11 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

Automotive architectures are becoming increasingly software-driven, a shift that simplifies upgrades and makes it easier to add new features into vehicles. All of this is enabled by the increasing digitalization of automotive functions and features, shifting from mechanical to electrical design, and increasingly from analog to digital data. That enables OEMs to add or up-sell features years ... » read more

Lots Of Data, But Uncertainty About What To Do With It
By Ed Sperling - 09 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

Experts at the Table: Semiconductor Engineering sat down to talk about silicon lifecycle management in heterogeneous designs, where sensors produce a flood of data, with Prashant Goteti, principal engineer at Intel; Rob Aitken, R&D fellow at Arm; Zoe Conroy, principal hardware engineer at Cisco; Subhasish Mitra, professor of electrical engineering and computer science at Stanford University... » read more

Increasing IP And SoC Debug Efficiency 10X With Intelligent Waveform Reuse
By Synopsys - 11 Jan, 2022 - Comments: 0

Design and verification reuse lies at the very heart of every modern chip development effort. A system on chip (SoC) project with billions of gates cannot possibly be completed in reasonable time without leveraging blocks from prior projects and commercial intellectual property (IP) offerings. These reused blocks are themselves challenging to develop since they are as large and complex as previ... » read more

Eliminating Software Development Bottlenecks For SoCs
By Sam Tennent - 23 Nov, 2021 - Comments: 0

System on chip (SoC) devices, by definition, use a combination of hardware and embedded software to provide their specified functionality. Both the design and programming teams face many challenges and have huge tasks. No matter how well they may perform, the full system cannot be verified and validated until the hardware and software are brought together in the bring-up lab. This is usually wa... » read more

Hyper-Convergence Is The New Normal For Digital Implementation
By Yudhan Rajoo - 23 Sep, 2021 - Comments: 0

The era of smart-everything has led to a surge in the need for semiconductor devices across a myriad of traditional and novel applications. These applications demand high performance yet energy-efficient compute over blazing-fast networks to service trillions of edge devices that are constantly consuming and generating large amounts of data. This surge has invigorated system architects to innov... » read more
