Intent Meets Implementation


Power efficiency has become a must-have in today’s ASIC and SoC designs. It’s no longer just about squeezing out more performance. It’s about doing so without draining the battery, wasting energy or overheating the system. Whether the chip is headed for a smartphone, a server rack in an AI datacenter or the control system of an autonomous vehicle, managing power wisely is as critical as m... » read more

An Inside Look At UPF 4.0


Energy and power efficiency are increasingly important in today’s products, and the additional complexity in new architectures to incorporate competitive power management schemes has magnified the need for newer and better methodologies for the verification, implementation, and reuse of power intent specifications. This is the focus of the new IEEE 1801-2024 Unified Power Format (UPF) 4.0 ... » read more
