Flexible USB4-Based Interface IP Solution For AI At The Edge
By Synopsys - 21 Dec, 2021 - Comments: 0

Consumers have become accustomed to smart devices that are powered by advances in artificial intelligence (AI). To expand the devices’ total addressable market, innovative device designers build edge AI accelerators and edge AI SoCs that support multiple use cases and integration options. This white paper describes a flexible USB4-based IP solution for edge AI accelerators and SoCs. The IP so... » read more

Why It’s So Difficult — And Costly — To Secure Chips
By Ed Sperling - 02 Dec, 2021 - Comments: 0

Rising concerns about the security of chips used in everything from cars to data centers are driving up the cost and complexity of electronic systems in a variety of ways, some obvious and others less so. Until very recently, semiconductor security was viewed more as a theoretical threat than a real one. Governments certainly worried about adversaries taking control of secure systems through... » read more

Three Key Aspects Of IP Quality
By Tom Anderson - 02 Dec, 2021 - Comments: 0

It’s no secret that today’s huge system-on-chip (SoC) projects require massive amounts of design reuse. No team, no matter how talented, can design a billion or more gates from scratch. They use extensive borrowing of RTL code from previous and related projects, plus hundreds of thousands of instantiated IP blocks from internal libraries, open-source repositories, development partners, and ... » read more

Effectively Addressing The Challenge Of Securing Connected And Autonomous Vehicles
By Siemens EDA - 01 Dec, 2021 - Comments: 0

Vehicles are becoming the most sophisticated connected objects in the ‘Internet of Things’. As vehicles integrate functionality that will enable a fully autonomous future, the attack surface grows substantially. Combined with remote connectivity at multiple points, the clock is ticking in a race to improve cybersecurity in all types of vehicles to ensure that all stakeholders, but particula... » read more

Chip Design Teams And Restaurant Kitchen Staff Have A Lot In Common
By Cliosoft - 22 Nov, 2021 - Comments: 0

By Anagha Pandharpurkar Believe it or not, electronic device and systems-design teams have a lot in common with kitchen staff in big commercial restaurants: They both leverage many different tools and resources to churn out great products in a high-pressure environment to a demanding audience that wants it now, not tomorrow. Unfortunately, design teams are often not nearly as well equippe... » read more

Using IP-XACT To Solve Design And Verification Problems
By Anika Malhotra - 13 Oct, 2021 - Comments: 0

As today’s SoC designs grow more complex and time-to-market (TTM) pressures rise, designers are looking for techniques to build and update designs easily. Key elements for addressing these SoC challenges include the incorporation of more commercial IP components, internal design IP reuse, and extensive automation of design and verification activities. Enhanced interoperability and reusability... » read more

GPIO IP For Automotive Functional Safety
By Nidhi Bhasin - 07 Oct, 2021 - Comments: 0

By Nidhi Bhasin, Shivakumar Chonnad, Vladimir Litovtchenko, and Sowjanya Syamala The prevalence and complexity of electronics and software (EE systems) in automotive applications are increasing with every new generation of car. The critical functions within the system on a chip (SoC) involve hardware and software that perform automotive-related signal communication at high data rates to and ... » read more

Containing The Explosion In Data
By Brian Bailey - 23 Sep, 2021 - Comments: 0

The amount of data that could be kept for every design is gargantuan, but even that may not be enough these days as lifecycle management, continuous verification, regulatory requirements, and globalization add to the data that needs to be stored. But data has no value if it cannot be found or used in ways that provide more benefit than the cost of storing it. "Data management is not unique t... » read more

Integrated Ethernet PCS And PHY IP For 400G/800G Hyperscale Data Centers
By Priyank Shukla - 09 Sep, 2021 - Comments: 0

Ethernet has become the primary network protocol of choice for the required server-to-server communication in hyperscale data centers, as it allows hyperscalers to disaggregate network switches and install their software operating systems independently. Ethernet enables cost-effective, dense, open switches and networking technologies which reduce cost/power per bit with transistor scaling. Ethe... » read more

The Difference Between Processor Configuration And Customization
By Roddy Urquhart - 26 Aug, 2021 - Comments: 0

For many years, people have been talking about configuring processor IP cores, but especially with growing interest in the open RISC-V ISA, there is much more talk about customization. So, what is the difference? A simple analogy is to think of ordering a pizza. With most pizzerias, you have standard bases and a choice of toppings from a limited list. You can configure the pizza to the ... » read more
