Cadence Janus NoC System IP
By Cadence - 17 Jul, 2024 - Comments: 0

The Cadence Janus Network on Chip (NoC) is a new highly configurable soft IP designed to speed up the system-on-chip (SoC) and full system design cycle by reducing some of the problems associated with large SoCs. With many more processing nodes, as well as memory and I/O nodes designed into the SoC, the interconnect becomes a major design hurdle. Wiring congestion and wire loads introduce ch... » read more

Streamlining SoC Design With Advanced IP And Integration Solutions
By Andy Nightingale - 27 Jun, 2024 - Comments: 0

As system-on-chip (SoC) complexity grows, so does the necessity for products that seamlessly connect IP and streamline integration processes, minimize manual errors, and enhance productivity. The emphasis on physical awareness across solutions significantly reduces the iterative cycles of NoC placement and routing. By ensuring low latency and high efficiency, these advanced integration solution... » read more

Use of NoC IP Facilitates Tailoring SoC Platform Design into Bespoke SoC Devices
By Arteris - 27 Jun, 2024 - Comments: 0

Customer Overview Dream Chip Technologies is a German company that originated from a research think tank initiative comprised of private companies and government-funded organizations in the beginning of 1990. The results from this effort were foundational in establishing German mastery of microelectronics. Dream Chip Technologies started as a design services provider, developing intellectua... » read more

Turbocharging Cost-Conscious SoCs With Cache
By John Min - 30 May, 2024 - Comments: 0

Some design teams creating system-on-chip (SoC) devices are fortunate to work with the latest and greatest technology nodes coupled with a largely unconstrained budget for acquiring intellectual property (IP) blocks from trusted third-party vendors. However, many engineers are not so privileged. For every “spare no expense” project, there are a thousand “do the best you can with a limited... » read more

NoCs In 3D Space
By Brian Bailey - 03 Apr, 2024 - Comments: 0

A network on chip (NoC) has become an essential piece of technology that enables the complexity of chips to keep growing, but when designs go 3D, or when third-party chiplets become pervasive, it's not clear how NoCs will evolve or what the impact will be on chiplet architectures. A NoC enables data to move between heterogeneous computing elements, while at the same time minimizing the resou... » read more

Cache Coherency In Heterogeneous Systems
By Ed Sperling - 01 Apr, 2024 - Comments: 0

Until recently, coherency was something normally associated with DRAM. But as chip designs become increasingly heterogeneous, incorporating more and different types of compute elements, it becomes harder to maintain coherency in that data without taking a significant hit on performance and power. The basic problem is that not all compute elements fetch and share data at the same speed, and syst... » read more

Automotive Semiconductor March Madness 2024
By Frank Schirrmeister - 28 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 0

As the US is amid "Basketball March Madness" – hard to ignore when you live in Silicon Valley – it also felt like the month of "Automotive Madness." We saw numerous announcements and events across the design chain, from semiconductor IP to software and IP providers to automotive OEMs. And in all of them, data-transport architectures, and with that networks-on-chips (NoCs), are critical. Ma... » read more

NoC Development – Make Or Buy?
By Frank Schirrmeister - 29 Feb, 2024 - Comments: 0

In the selection and qualification process for semiconductor IP, design teams often consider the cost of in-house development. Network-on-Chip (NoC) IP is no different. In “When Does My SoC Design Need A NoC?” Michael Frank and I argued that most of today’s designs – even less complex ones – can benefit from NoCs. In the blog “Balancing Memory And Coherence: Navigating Modern Chip A... » read more

SoC Integration And Data Transport Architecture Requirements Surge In 2023
By Frank Schirrmeister - 30 Nov, 2023 - Comments: 0

As the holiday season is in full swing, it's retrospection and prediction time! Let's look at what I thought 2023 would look like, review how it turned out, and take a first stab at 2024 predictions. As a spoiler, my biggest surprise was the intensity with which artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) accelerated since Generative AI was put on the mainstream adoption map last year,... » read more

A Survey Of Recent Advances And Research Activities In Wireless NoC Security
By Technical Paper Link - 07 Nov, 2023 - Comments: 0

A technical paper titled “Wireless Network-on-Chip Security Review: Attack Taxonomy, Implications, and Countermeasures” was published by researchers at Macquarie University (Sydney). Abstract: "Network-on-chip (NoC) is a critical on-chip communication framework that underpins high-performance multicore computing and network system architectures. Its adoption has become widespread due to t... » read more
