ASIC Prototyping — New Design Realities Demand A New Approach
By Siemens EDA - 14 May, 2026 - Comments: 0

Modern ASIC design pushes prototypes to model vast RTL interactions across many FPGAs, often under high-bandwidth conditions that strain traditional systems. Verification teams also need fluid movement between emulation and at-speed prototyping, exposing any gaps in flow, tooling, or model continuity. This white paper presents an integrated solution that addresses these challenges through a uni... » read more

Enabling A Critical Phase in SoC Development
By Siemens EDA - 06 May, 2026 - Comments: 0

High speed execution of an SoC model on an FPGA-based prototyping system is essential—both to permit development and verification of the full software stack and to understand hardware/software interactions—before silicon is available. But for SoC designs that include high-speed, voluminous I/O, it is equally essential that the prototype be exercised with large amounts of real-world I/O o... » read more

System State Challenges Widen
By Brian Bailey - 30 Nov, 2023 - Comments: 0

Knowing the state of a system is essential for many analysis and debug tasks, but it's becoming more difficult in heterogeneous systems that are crammed with an increasing array of features. There is a limit as to how many things engineers can keep track of, and the complexity of today's systems extends far beyond that. Hierarchy and abstraction are used to help focus on the important aspect... » read more

Designing Vehicles Virtually
By John Koon - 07 Sep, 2023 - Comments: 0

The shift toward software-defined vehicles (SDVs), electric vehicles (EVs), and ultimately autonomous vehicles (AVs) is proving the value and exposing the weaknesses in simulating individual components and complete vehicles. The ability to model this intensely complex maze of real-world interactions and possible scenarios is improving, and it's happening faster than comparable road-testing o... » read more

AI, Rising Chip Complexity Complicate Prototyping
By Karen Heyman - 24 Aug, 2023 - Comments: 0

Prototyping, an essential technology for designing complex chips in tight market windows, is becoming significantly more challenging for the growing number of designs that include AI/ML. Prototyping remains one of the foundational pillars of the whole shift left movement, allowing software to be developed and tested before actual silicon is available. That, in turn, enables multiple teams t... » read more

Challenges Grow For Modeling Auto Performance, Power
By Ann Mutschler - 17 Aug, 2022 - Comments: 0

Rising complexity in automobiles is creating huge challenges about how to add more safety and comfort features and electronics into vehicles without reducing the overall range they can travel or pricing them so high that only the rich can afford them. While the current focus is on modeling hardware and software to understand interactions between systems, this remains a huge challenge. It req... » read more

Researchers from RWTH Aachen University and Otto-von-Guericke Universitat Magdeburg have published a new technical paper titled "EmuNoC: Hybrid Emulation for Fast and Flexible Network-on-Chip Prototyping on FPGAs." Abstract: "Networks-on-Chips (NoCs) recently became widely used, from multi-core CPUs to edge-AI accelerators. Emulation on FPGAs promises to accelerate their RTL modeling co... » read more

The Power Of Virtual Prototyping: From SoC Design To Software Development
By Arm - 13 Jan, 2021 - Comments: 0

Virtual prototypes and hardware design: More powerful and complex integrated circuits and System-on-Chip (SoC) designers have a daunting task at both the hardware and software level. SoC architects need a method for early evaluation of hardware components, known as Intellectual Property (IP) blocks, that will have direct impact on the commercial success of the SoC. There are a range of complex ... » read more
