High-Quality Test And Embedded Analytics Are Vital For Secure SoCs
By Lee Harrison - 02 Sep, 2021 - Comments: 0

Applications such as smart cards and devices used in the defense industry require security features to ensure that sensitive data is inaccessible to outside agents. This used to be a niche requirement met through custom solutions. However, now that automotive and cyber-physical systems are proliferating, the requirements around secure test and monitoring are becoming mainstream. The current bes... » read more

Why TinyML Is Such A Big Deal
By Bryon Moyer - 02 Sep, 2021 - Comments: 1

While machine-learning (ML) development activity most visibly focuses on high-power solutions in the cloud or medium-powered solutions at the edge, there is another collection of activity aimed at implementing machine learning on severely resource-constrained systems. Known as TinyML, it’s both a concept and an organization — and it has acquired significant momentum over the last year or... » read more

The Early Bird Gets More Secure Hardware
By Rob van Blommestein - 02 Sep, 2021 - Comments: 0

I’m sure you’ve heard the expression “The early bird gets the worm.” This proverb emphasizes the importance of starting something early to maximize the potential outcome. In terms of hardware security, this idiom is spot on. Cybersecurity shouldn’t only be about protecting the software from attacks. Hardware is just as important. Cyberattacks continue to advance significantly, prog... » read more

Consistent Test Reuse Across MIL, SIL, And HIL In A Model-Driven Development Workflow
By Siemens EDA - 01 Sep, 2021 - Comments: 0

This paper presents a standards-based, systematic, and automated generative MDD/XIL workflow that helps automotive developers develop their production ECU V&V suites early during software modeling and re-use them throughout the overall systems engineering project. The test cases developed during design can be re-used through to production ECU testing and ultimately for automated regression V&V ... » read more

Blog Review: Sept. 1
By Jesse Allen - 01 Sep, 2021 - Comments: 0

Arm's Fernando Garcia Redondo, Pranay Prabhat, and Mudit Bhargava continue their exploration of MRAM simulation by explaining stochasticity experiments and a characterization framework that focuses on the MRAM behavior statistical analysis. Siemens EDA's Neil Johnson shows how performance profiling can be used to identify testbench code that could slow down simulation and when to start using i... » read more

Modeling Chips From Atoms To Systems
By Ann Mutschler - 26 Aug, 2021 - Comments: 1

Complexity in hardware design is spilling over to other disciplines, including software, manufacturing, and new materials, creating issues for how to model more data at multiple abstraction levels. Challenges are growing around which abstraction level to use for a particular stage of the design, when to use it, and which data to include. Those decisions are becoming more difficult at each ne... » read more

Steering The Semiconductor Industry
By Brian Bailey - 26 Aug, 2021 - Comments: 2

Progress in semiconductors has been one of the most successful engineering feats, and the industry has ridden an exponential curve longer than anything else in history. It is also a highly conservative industry that has pushed away many disruptive changes in favor of small incremental changes that minimize risk. There have been significant changes over the decades, and they often required a ... » read more

Connecting Teams With A Collaboration Hub In The Cloud
By Siemens EDA - 25 Aug, 2021 - Comments: 0

Given the complexities inherent in both next-generation products and the underlying components used, effective collaboration is fundamental to successfully navigating the product creation journey. Teams that are better synchronized and aligned are far more likely to deliver a successful product to market on time and on budget. Explore how the Connect application extends the power of PADS Pro... » read more

Blog Review: Aug. 25
By Jesse Allen - 25 Aug, 2021 - Comments: 0

Arm's Fernando Garcia Redondo, Pranay Prabhat, and Mudit Bhargava introduce an open source framework and compact model for the simulation, characterization, and analysis of MRAM magnetic tunnel junctions. Siemens EDA's Chris Spear continues the tutorial on SystemVerilog class variables with a look at how to use the $cast() system task to copy between base and derived class variables. Syno... » read more
