Scaling AI Chip Design With NoC Soft Tiling

By Andy Nightingale - 26 Nov, 2024 - Comments: 0

Tiling is about repeating modular units within the same chip to enhance scalability and efficiency; chiplets involve combining different silicon pieces to achieve a more diverse and powerful system within a single package. Network-on-chip (NoC) soft tiling is complimentary but distinct from chiplets described above as it repeats modular units inside a NoC design. Soft tiling within a NoC off... » read more

Reducing SoC Power With NoCs And Caches

By Andy Nightingale - 31 Oct, 2024 - Comments: 0

Today’s system-on-chip (SoC) designs face significant challenges with respect to managing and minimizing power consumption while maintaining high performance and scalability. Network-on-chip (NoC) interconnects coupled with innovative cache memories can address these competing requirements. Traditional NoCs SoCs consist of IP blocks that need to be connected. Early SoCs used bus-based archi... » read more

Data Routing In Heterogeneous Chip Designs

By Ed Sperling - 30 Sep, 2024 - Comments: 0

Ensuring data gets to where it's supposed to go at exactly the right time is a growing challenge for design engineers and architects developing heterogeneous systems. There is more data moving around these chips with dozens of targets, which makes routing signals much more complicated. Ronen Perets, senior product marketing manager at Cadence Design Systems, talks about some of the new problems... » read more

Streamlining Complex Semiconductor Designs With IP-XACT-Based Structured Assembly

By Insaf Meliane - 29 Aug, 2024 - Comments: 0

Semiconductor design is rapidly evolving because technologies such as AI and machine learning (ML) applications push the boundaries of complexity and specialization. Modern chips require hundreds or thousands of IP blocks, leading to significant design challenges. Multi-die architectures, which distribute functional blocks across multiple dice, demand expert planning to ensure connectivity and ... » read more

The U.S. Department of Commerce and Texas Instruments (TI) signed a non-binding preliminary memorandum of terms to provide up to $1.6 billion in CHIPS Act funding towards TI’s investment of over $18 billion for three 300mm semiconductor wafer fabs under construction in Texas and Utah. TI also expects to get about $6 billion to $8 billion from the U.S. Department of Treasury’s Investmen... » read more

Optimizing Interconnect Topologies For Automotive ADAS Applications

By Ashley Stevens - 25 Jul, 2024 - Comments: 0

Designing automotive Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) applications can be incredibly complex. State-of-the-art ADAS and autonomous driving systems use ‘sensor fusion’ to combine inputs from multiple sources, typically cameras and optionally radar and lidar units to go beyond passive and active safety to automate driving. Vision processing systems combine specialized AI accelerators... » read more

Streamlining SoC Design With Advanced IP And Integration Solutions

By Andy Nightingale - 27 Jun, 2024 - Comments: 0

As system-on-chip (SoC) complexity grows, so does the necessity for products that seamlessly connect IP and streamline integration processes, minimize manual errors, and enhance productivity. The emphasis on physical awareness across solutions significantly reduces the iterative cycles of NoC placement and routing. By ensuring low latency and high efficiency, these advanced integration solution... » read more
