Standardization Of HDMs For Hierarchical CDC And RDC Analysis


Currently hierarchical data models (HDM) must be generated with the same EDA tool that customers will use to consume the HDM for CDC and RDC analysis at the SoC level. To resolve this problem a CDC Working Group was created within the Accellera organization. The goal of this Working Group is to create a standard format for HDMs so the models can be consumed by any EDA tool irrespective of the s... » read more

Achieve 10X Faster CDC Debug Leveraging Machine Learning


Over the years, system-on-chip (SoC) design sizes have crossed the billion-gate mark. Higher complexity has been introduced within semiconductor designs to deliver desired functionality. The number of asynchronous clock and reset domains is growing heavily within these complex SoCs, leading to millions of clock domain crossing (CDC) violations at the SoC level. Each of these violations ... » read more
