SOC Design & IP Management—A Must For Functional Verification
By Cliosoft - 05 Jun, 2019 - Comments: 0

As a part of the verification flow, verification teams perform different types of simulations based on the nature of the design. The simulations include digital logic functional simulations, mixed-signal functional simulations, power-aware simulations, formal verification runs and gate-level simulations. For a signoff, all planned tests must pass in all four types of simulations. In addition t... » read more

Collaborative IC Design Mandates Integrated Data Management
By Cliosoft - 11 Feb, 2019 - Comments: 0

Over the last decade, design teams have encountered increased competition due to globalization (requiring the best available engineers irrespective of location), an exponential increase in design complexity, and shrinking market windows. This results in teams of engineers with different skill sets (for example analog, digital, MEMS, and RF), spread across multiple sites, managing complex flows,... » read more

Mixed-Signal Methodology Guide

ClioSoft wrote the chapter on SoC design data management in Cadence’s "Mixed-Signal Methodology Guide." Register to receive an electronic copy of this chapter. Introduction Software teams have long used version control and data management systems and they have become an integral part of a software development environment. Practically, no significant software project is started without a so... » read more

designHUB: Design Reuse Made Real
By Cliosoft - 06 Jun, 2018 - Comments: 0

It’s no secret: You can’t get to market quickly or efficiently without integrating and re-using IP technology in your system-on-chip (SoC) design. In the past 10 years alone, design re-use has doubled to the point where today you’ll find more than 150 reused blocks comprising 60-70% of the die area in an average SoC. The companies most successful with their IP-reuse strategies are thos... » read more

Data Management For Mixed-Signal Designs
By Cliosoft - 06 Jul, 2017 - Comments: 0

Software teams have long used version control and data management systems and they have become an integral part of a so ware development environment. Practically, no significant software project is started without a software data management system and methodology in place. There are a variety of solutions, typically referred to as Software Configuration Management (SCM) systems, to choose from ... » read more

Visual Design Diff
By Cliosoft - 06 Apr, 2017 - Comments: 0

A document, whether it is stored as a simple text file or as a word processor formatted file, is often a living entity that is constantly evolving. A user may create a first draft, revise it multiple times, have other team members review it and make alterations, and refine it over time to keep up with new information and requirements. What has changed since the last revision becomes very import... » read more
