FIR And Median Filter Accelerators In CodAL
By Codasip - 25 Oct, 2023 - Comments: 0

5G is the latest generation of cellular networks using the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) 5G New Radio air interface. Unlike previous generations of network (2G, 3G & 4G) which had a one-size-fits-all approach, 5G aims to address a wide range of very different applications. To flexibly support diverse quality of service requirements, network slicing is introduced to enable mul... » read more

By Susan Rambo, Liz Allan, and Gregory Haley. TSMC rolled out the second version of its 3Dblox, which creates an infrastructure for stacking chiplets and other necessary components in a package, along with a standardized way of achieving that. Two novel features are chiplet mirroring for design reuse, and what is basically sandbox for power and thermal analysis of different design elements. ... » read more

Formal Verification Best Practices: Investigating A Deadlock
By Laurent Arditi - 28 Sep, 2023 - Comments: 0

To ensure a design is deadlock free with formal verification, one approach consists in verifying that it is “always eventually” able to respond to a request. The wording is important. Regardless of the current state and the number of cycles we must wait, in the future the design must respond. This translates very nicely using a type of SystemVerilog Assertion called “liveness propertie... » read more
