Static Timing Analysis: Cell Delay Vs. Cell Drive Strength
By Pamula Sai Srinivas - 13 Mar, 2025 - Comments: 0

Have you ever wondered how a predator succeeds or its prey escapes in the jungle? It’s the breathtaking speed and agility of the predator (say, a leopard) as it chases prey (say, a deer). The VLSI circuit operation is very similar. If the driving cell is strong, it takes less delay and changes the output quicker than a weaker driver, which produces a sluggish response and takes longer t... » read more

Symmetric Multiprocessing (SMP) RTOS On Xtensa Multicore
By Nayan Gaywala - 13 Feb, 2025 - Comments: 0

An increasing number of multi-threaded embedded applications want to leverage multicore designs. Symmetric Multiprocessing (SMP) RTOS provides automatic load balancing of multiple threads in a multicore environment. Also, numerous legacy multi-threaded embedded applications are deployed on a single-core RTOS that customers want to move to a multicore environment. For these reasons, application ... » read more

The rapid rise in size and sophistication of AI/ML training models requires increasingly powerful hardware deployed in the data center and at the network edge. This growth in complexity and data stresses the existing infrastructure, driving the need for new and innovative processor architectures and associated memory subsystems. For example, even GPT-3 at 175 billion parameters is stressing the... » read more

PCIe 6.0 Address Translation Services: Verification Challenges And Strategies
By Geeta Arora - 18 Jul, 2024 - Comments: 0

Address Translation Services (ATS) is a mechanism in PCIe that allows devices to request address translations from the Input/Output Memory Management Unit (IOMMU). This is particularly important where devices need to access virtual memory. ATS enhances performance by enabling devices to cache translations, reducing the latency associated with memory access. This blog delves into the semantics ... » read more

PCIe 7.0 Takes Center Stage At PCI-SIG DevCon ’24
By Gautam S. - 13 Jun, 2024 - Comments: 0

From the simplest building blocks like GPIOs to the most advanced high-speed interfaces, IP subsystems are the lifeblood of the chipmaking ecosystem. A key enabler for IP has been the collaboration between industry and academia in the creation of standards and protocols for interfaces. PCI-SIG drives some of the key definitions and compliance specifications and ensures the interoperability of i... » read more
