Routing Congestion Returns
By Ed Sperling - 26 Jul, 2012 - Comments: 0

By Ed Sperling Routing congestion has returned with a vengeance to SoC design, fueled by the advent of more third-party IP, more memory, a variety of new features, as well as the inability to scale wires at the same rate as transistors. This is certainly not a foreign concept for IC design. The markets for place and route tools were driven largely by the need to automate this kind of operat... » read more

SoC Platforms Gain Steam
By Ed Sperling - 26 Jul, 2012 - Comments: 0

By Ed Sperling Platforms are attracting far more attention from makers of SoCs because they are pre-verified and can speed time to market, but the shift isn’t so simple. It will spark major changes in the way companies design and build chips, causing significant disruption across the entire SoC ecosystem. Platforms are nothing new in the processor and software world. Intel, IBM AMD, and N... » read more

The Power Of Dark Silicon
By Frank Ferro - 26 Jul, 2012 - Comments: 0

By Frank Ferro Even though the cloud is permeating everything we do today, I was recently reminded that it's even omnipresent far outside the walls of tech. With all the TV ads, as well as our most prominent airports and U.S. highways peppered with cloud-based billboards, even our parents know how to properly use cloud in sentence today. But to hear about the cloud from the pulpit at church on... » read more

Increasing Certainty For 20nm Design
By Frank Schirrmeister - 25 Jul, 2012 - Comments: 0

By Frank Schirrmeister At the recent Design Automation Conference two topics were getting very special attention: Design at 20nm and System-Level Design. This is very indicative of the very opposite trends we have been facing in semiconductor designs for the last couple of decades. On the one hand, the actual design units get smaller and smaller, and we are today happily designing for technolo... » read more
