Making SoC Integration Simple – Achieve Higher Productivity and Quality
By Arteris - 27 Aug, 2025 - Comments: 0

The development of large-scale semiconductors has never been a simple task, but with the development of ever more powerful computers, software environments, and verification models, the task of designing cutting-edge chips becomes far more manageable. However, now that many chips being developed are utilizing as many as 1000 IP cores, the challenges of correctly connecting these modules togethe... » read more

System Integration With Standards-Based Automation
By Insaf Meliane - 31 Jul, 2025 - Comments: 0

Today’s semiconductor designs support a broad range of applications, from mobile and edge devices to AI accelerators and data center systems. To keep pace, design teams are shifting from monolithic systems-on-chip (SoCs) to increasingly complex multi-die and chiplet-based architectures. These heterogeneous systems often incorporate IP developed at different times, by different teams, or sourc... » read more

Accelerating IP Reuse
By Ed Sperling - 23 Jul, 2025 - Comments: 0

Semiconductors are no longer monolithic designs developed by a single company. There is more third-party IP from different sources — as many as 1,000 different IPs in a complex SoC — and all of that needs to be integrated and work as one system, something that can require a lot of effort and time. Insaf Meliane, product management and marketing director at Arteris, talks about how the new v... » 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

Data Coherence Across Silos And Hierarchy
By Brian Bailey - 27 Jun, 2024 - Comments: 0

Shift left has become a rallying cry for the chip design industry, but unless coherent data can flow between the groups being impacted, the value may not be as great as expected. Shift left is a term that encompasses attempts to bring analysis and decision-making forward in the development process. The earlier an issue can be found, the less of a problem it ultimately becomes. But in many ca... » read more

Promises And Pitfalls Of SoC Restructuring
By Ed Sperling - 12 Jun, 2024 - Comments: 0

As chips become more complex and increasingly heterogeneous, it's becoming more difficult to keep track of different methodologies, tools, and blend data from different sources to create a chip. Tim Schneider, staff application engineer at Arteris, explains why IP-XACT has become so critical, why it took so long to gain a solid foothold in chip design, and how the new IP-XACT standard interface... » read more

Design Complexity In The Golden Age Of Semiconductors
By Frank Schirrmeister - 24 Aug, 2023 - Comments: 0

While writing last month's blog that used some of the trend charts we have seen, I noticed that a lot of the data ends in 2020 or earlier, but I was too close to the deadline to sit down and make orderly updates to some of the charts. Working day-to-day in the area of SoC integration and networks-on-chips (NoCs), the classic chart based on Karl Rupp's now 50 years of processor data that overlay... » read more

The Design Automation Conference Turns 60! What’s Hot? What’s Next?
By Frank Schirrmeister - 06 Jul, 2023 - Comments: 0

This coming week from July 9th to July 13th, experts from all over the world will descend on the Moscone Center in San Francisco to discuss aspects of what we call "Electronic Design Automation" (EDA) and typically associate with hardware development. There will be many celebratory elements this year, given the milestone of 60 years. Industry luminary Alberto Sangiovanni Vincentelli will give o... » read more

A New Breed Of EDA Required
By Brian Bailey - 23 Jun, 2022 - Comments: 1

While doing research for one of my stories this month, a couple of people basically said that applying methodologies of the past to the designs of today can be problematic because there are fundamental differences in the architectures and workloads. While I completely agree, I don't think these statements go far enough. Designs of today generally have one of everything — one CPU, one accel... » read more
