The ASIC, ASSP, and system-on-chip (SoC) design landscape has undergone significant evolution over the past two decades. For example, while early devices contained only tens of intellectual property (IP) blocks, modern high-end SoCs may integrate up to 1000 IPs, each containing millions of logic gates.
Furthermore, unlike their predecessors, today’s SoCs are no longer primarily hardware; i...
