Arm Total Compute: Engineering For Tomorrow’s Workloads
By Arm - 09 Aug, 2023 - Comments: 0

As consumers seek richer and more immersive experiences from their devices, the way compute systems are engineered must continually evolve to keep up. Arm Total Compute takes a solution-focused approach to system-on-chip design, moving beyond individual IP elements to design and optimize the system as a whole to enable more digital immersion experiences. Not only does this white paper dis... » read more

Large-Scale Integration’s Future Depends On Modeling
By Karen Heyman - 27 Jul, 2023 - Comments: 0

VLSI is a term that conjures up images of a college textbook, but some of the concepts included in very large-scale integration remain relevant and continue to evolve, while others have fallen by the wayside. The portion of VLSI that remains most relevant for semiconductor industry is "integration," which is pushing well beyond the edges of a monolithic planar chip. But that expansion also i... » read more

An Automated Method For Adding Resiliency To Mission-Critical SoC Designs
By Synopsys - 21 Jun, 2023 - Comments: 0

Adding safety measures to system-on-chip (SoC) designs in the form of radiation-hardened elements or redundancy is essential in making mission-critical applications in the Aerospace and Defense (A&D), cloud, automotive, robotics, medical, and Internet-of-Things (IoT) industries more resilient against random hardware failures that occur. Designing for reliable and resilient functionality doe... » read more

Advanced RISC-V Verification Methodology Projects
By Imperas - 24 May, 2023 - Comments: 0

The open standard of RISC-V offers developers new freedoms to explore new design flexibilities and enable innovations with optimized processors. As a design moves from concept to implementation new resources are appearing to help with standards for testbenches, verification IP reuse, and coverage analysis. RISC-V offers every SoC team the possibility to design an optimized processor, but this a... » read more

Pinpointing Timing Delays Can Improve Chip Reliability
By Anne Meixner - 09 May, 2023 - Comments: 0

Growing pressure to improve IC reliability in safety- and mission-critical applications is fueling demand for custom automated test pattern generation (ATPG) to detect small timing delays, and for chip telemetry circuits that can assess timing margin over a chip's lifetime. Knowing the timing margin in signal paths has become an essential component in that reliability. Timing relationships a... » read more

Design Considerations and Recent Advancements in Chiplets (UC Berkeley/ Peking University)
By Technical Paper Link - 10 Apr, 2023 - Comments: 0

A new technical paper titled "Automated Design of Chiplets" was published by researchers at UC Berkeley and Peking University. Abstract: "Chiplet-based designs have gained recognition as a promising alternative to monolithic SoCs due to their lower manufacturing costs, improved re-usability, and optimized technology specialization. Despite progress made in various related domains, the des... » read more

How Low Can You Go? Pushing The Limits Of Transistors
By Synopsys - 08 Mar, 2023 - Comments: 0

Deep low voltage enablement of embedded memories and logic libraries to achieve extreme low power: Rising demand for cutting-edge mobile, IoT, and wearable devices, along with high compute demands for AI and 5G/6G communications, has driven the need for lower power systems-on-chip (SoCs). This is not only a concern for a device’s power consumption when active (dynamic power), but also when... » read more
