Why The SOAFEE Project Is Integral For The Design Of Connected Vehicles
By Stewart Wiliams - 07 Sep, 2023 - Comments: 0

The Scalable Open Architecture for Embedded Edge (SOAFEE) project, of which Synopsys is a voting member, is defined by automakers, semiconductor suppliers, open-source and independent software vendors, and cloud technology leaders. The effort builds on technologies that define standard boot and security requirements for the Arm architecture, while adding a cloud-native development and deployme... » read more

4 Ways To Design More Reliable Automotive Electronics
By David Dang - 08 Jun, 2023 - Comments: 0

From engine management systems (fuel injection rate, emissions control, cooling systems) and autonomous controls (lane, speed, park assist, adaptive cruise control) to infotainment systems and comfort systems (climate control, electronic seat adjustment, automatic wipers, etc.), the modern-day gas-powered and electric vehicles have more electronic devices than ever. Indeed, the microprocessors ... » read more

Building Better Cars Faster
By John Koon - 02 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

Carmakers are accelerating their chip and electronic design schedules to remain competitive in an increasingly fast-changing market, but they are encountering gaps in the tooling, the supply chain, and in the methodologies they use to create those cars. While it's easy to envision how CAD software could be used to create the next new vehicle’s 3-D look, and how simulation software helps de... » read more

Design And Verification Methodologies Breaking Down
By Brian Bailey - 12 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 0

Tools, methodologies and flows that have been in place since the dawn of semiconductor design are breaking down, but this time there isn't a large pool of researchers coming up with potential solutions. The industry is on its own to formulate those ideas, and that will take a lot of cooperation between EDA companies, fabs, and designers, which has not been their strong point in the past. It ... » read more

A new technical paper titled "Advanced Embedded System Modeling and Simulation in an Open Source RISC-V Virtual Prototype" was published by researchers at DFKI GmbH and University of Bremen. Abstract "RISC-V is a modern Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) that, by its open nature in combination with a clean and modular design, has enormous potential to become a game changer in the Internet o... » read more

Embedded Software: Sometimes Easier, Often More Complex
By Ann Mutschler - 25 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

Embedded software, once a challenge to write, update, and optimize, is following the route of other types of software. It is abstracted, simpler to use, and much faster to write. But in some cases, it's also much harder to get right. From a conceptual level, the general definition of embedded software has not changed much. It's still low-level drivers and RTOSes that run close to the hardwar... » read more

RISC-V: Advanced Virtual Prototyping Solutions
By Technical Paper Link - 23 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

New technical paper titled "Advanced virtual prototyping for cyber-physical systems using RISC-V: implementation, verification and challenges" from researchers at Institute of Computer Science, University of Bremen and Cyber-Physical Systems, DFKI GmbH. Abstract "Virtual prototypes (VPs) are crucial in today’s design flow. VPs are predominantly created in SystemC transaction-level modelin... » read more

Accelerating Software Development With Fast Virtual Prototypes
By Synopsys - 12 Jan, 2022 - Comments: 0

Most of today's largest semiconductor devices are highly complex system on chip (SoC) designs, which means that they include one or more embedded processors. This indicates that software provides some of the key functionality of the chip. The system cannot be fully verified or validated without both hardware and software. However, software development generally takes more time and resources to ... » read more

Shifting Vehicle System Development Left With Virtual ECUs
By Marc Serughetti - 04 Nov, 2021 - Comments: 0

Developing electrical and electronic content for vehicles has always been an engineering and manufacturing challenge. The road is an exceptionally rough environment for components: temperature and humidity change constantly while noise and vibration pummel all parts of the vehicle. The nature of high-speed travel requires safety and reliability, which must be achieved in the presence of the dif... » read more
