FPGAs Becoming More SoC-Like
By Ann Mutschler - 04 Jun, 2018 - Comments: 1

FPGAs are blinged-out rockstars compared to their former selves. No longer just a collection of look-up tables (LUTs) and registers, FPGAs have moved well beyond into now being architectures for system exploration and vehicles for proving a design architecture for future ASICs. This family of devices now includes everything from basic programmable logic all the way up to complex SoC devices.... » read more

How SoC Interconnect Enables Flexible Architecture For ADAS And Autonomous Car Designs
By Kurt Shuler - 22 Feb, 2018 - Comments: 0

When the mobile phone era saw its fastest growth, the design teams that were the most innovative were able to introduce game-changing features before anyone else. Those companies also had the most configurable interconnect IP, allowing them to adapt to quickly changing market needs faster than their competition. Now, nearly a decade later, when autonomous driving is quickly moving into the m... » read more

AI And Machine Learning Drive New SoC Verification Choices
By Frank Schirrmeister - 22 Feb, 2018 - Comments: 0

I have previously written about the choices that design teams have when choosing specific verification engines—virtual, formal, simulation, emulation, FPGA and actual silicon. As a new class of SoC is emerging for machine learning and artificial intelligence with complexities previously unheard of, they further deepen the challenge of choosing the right tool for the job. Even the choice betwe... » read more

The Value Of Trust
By John Ronco - 12 Feb, 2018 - Comments: 0

It took 40 years for Alexander Graham Bell’s telephone to go from 10% to 40% global saturation. The smartphone repeated that market penetration in less than a tenth of the time. But even the success of the smartphone is being eclipsed by the lightning pace at which Internet of Things (IoT) products are being born, with Gartner predicting that 95% of all technology products will be IoT-capable... » read more
