This white paper highlights the key challenges of NB-IoT modem design. It proposes a hardware/sof... » read more

Digital Signal Processing for Frequency-Modulated Continuous Wave RADARs
By Synopsys - 13 Feb, 2019 - Comments: 0

RADAR, LiDAR and vision systems play a critical role in enabling advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous driving (AD). The automotive ADAS markets are forecast to grow at high rates in the upcoming years, with increasing requirements and system implementation complexity. This paper provides an overview of RADAR technology as used in ADAS applications, including a summary of the... » read more

Open Source in M&A Due Diligence
By Synopsys - 06 Feb, 2019 - Comments: 0

Most companies involved with technology M&A understand the danger of open source risks in software. Today’s software contains significant amounts of open source—on average more than 50%, according to a 2018 Synopsys report. There are several ways to assess and manage open source risk in a transaction, with some more effective than others. Similarly, there are several approaches to open s... » read more

A Simplified Way to Debug IIP Designs and SoC
By Synopsys - 30 Jan, 2019 - Comments: 0

Design problems that appear in the late phases of the development cycle can be extremely difficult to track down and debug, thus putting project schedules at risk. It's not uncommon for an engineer to run the verification test on what appears to be the main design problem, only to find the problem in the dump. Traditional debug techniques don't always help to localize the issue. This whitepaper... » read more

The DNA of an Artificial Intelligence SoC
By Synopsys - 19 Dec, 2018 - Comments: 0

Over the past decade, a few advancements have made artificial intelligence (AI) one of the most exciting technologies of our lifetime. In 2012, Geoffrey Everest Hinton demonstrated his generalized back propagation neural network algorithm in the Imagenet challenge, which revolutionized the field of computer vision. However, the math was developed years prior to 2012, and it was the available m... » read more

Softening Hardware: Using Application-Specific Processors to Optimize Modern SoC Designs
By Synopsys - 12 Dec, 2018 - Comments: 0

Over the past decade, the trend in SoC design has been to add more functionality into software, but moving functionality from hardware into software comes at a cost: software requires a processor, which, if not designed for optimal efficiency, could be slower and use more power than dedicated hardware. It often makes sense to implement smaller, specialized processors to tackle specific tasks wi... » read more
