Are You Virtually Fast Enough?
By Malte Doerper - 26 Oct, 2017 - Comments: 0

During high school my class was divided into two camps: Ayrton Senna and Michael Schumacher fans. Regardless of either camp, the real heated question was whether the driver or the race car is more important. Over the years I lost track and I don’t remember if any of those discussions ever concluded. So now, 25 years later, let me try to engage in a slightly similar but hopefully more balanced... » read more

The Week In Review: Design

M&A Synopsys acquired Sidense, a provider of antifuse one-time programmable (OTP) non-volatile memory (NVM) for standard-logic CMOS processes. Sidense was founded in 2004 in Canada. Terms of the deal were not disclosed. ArterisIP acquired the software and intellectual property rights of iNoCs, a provider of network-on-chip IP and design tools. Founded in 2007, the Swiss company was spun... » read more

Fast Models, Cycle Models
By Jason Andrews - 27 Jul, 2017 - Comments: 0

There has been a lot of coverage since the launch of new CPU and graphics cores at Computex 2017, including some information about early software development. The public announcement of new ARM IP is a milestone for ARM Models because it means we can now talk about available models and share additional information about the new IP. ARM Fast Models and Cycle Models enable virtual prototyping ... » read more

Semiconductor Engineering sat down to discuss the growing usage of hybrid verification approaches with Frank Schirrmeister, senior group director of product management & marketing for [getentity id="22032" e_name="Cadence"]; Russ Klein, program director for pre-silicon debug products at [getentity id="22017" e_name="Mentor, a Siemens Business"]; [getperson id="11027" comment="Phil Moorby"],... » read more

Formal Verification’s Continental Divide
By Dave Kelf - 25 May, 2017 - Comments: 0

Formal verification is picking up steam with engineering groups worldwide doing complex functional verification for bug-free and reliable digital chips. In fact, many difficult verification challenges are solved with formal verification, given its flexibility in targeting a broad range of verification challenges. Recent advances in formal verification’s ease of use and capacity has made it an... » read more

Whatever Happened To HLS?
By Brian Bailey - 24 May, 2017 - Comments: 1

A few years ago, [getkc id="105" comment="high-level synthesis"] (HLS) was probably the most talked about emerging technology that was to be the heart of a new [getkc id="48" kc_name="Electronic System Level"] (ESL) flow. Today, we hear much less about the progress being made in this area. Semiconductor Engineering sat down to discuss this with Bryan Bowyer, director of engineering for high-lev... » read more
