Building Better Cars Faster
By John Koon - 02 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

Carmakers are accelerating their chip and electronic design schedules to remain competitive in an increasingly fast-changing market, but they are encountering gaps in the tooling, the supply chain, and in the methodologies they use to create those cars. While it's easy to envision how CAD software could be used to create the next new vehicle’s 3-D look, and how simulation software helps de... » read more

Design And Verification Methodologies Breaking Down
By Brian Bailey - 12 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 0

Tools, methodologies and flows that have been in place since the dawn of semiconductor design are breaking down, but this time there isn't a large pool of researchers coming up with potential solutions. The industry is on its own to formulate those ideas, and that will take a lot of cooperation between EDA companies, fabs, and designers, which has not been their strong point in the past. It ... » read more

A new technical paper titled "Advanced Embedded System Modeling and Simulation in an Open Source RISC-V Virtual Prototype" was published by researchers at DFKI GmbH and University of Bremen. Abstract "RISC-V is a modern Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) that, by its open nature in combination with a clean and modular design, has enormous potential to become a game changer in the Internet o... » read more

Embedded Software: Sometimes Easier, Often More Complex
By Ann Mutschler - 25 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

Embedded software, once a challenge to write, update, and optimize, is following the route of other types of software. It is abstracted, simpler to use, and much faster to write. But in some cases, it's also much harder to get right. From a conceptual level, the general definition of embedded software has not changed much. It's still low-level drivers and RTOSes that run close to the hardwar... » read more

RISC-V: Advanced Virtual Prototyping Solutions
By Technical Paper Link - 23 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

New technical paper titled "Advanced virtual prototyping for cyber-physical systems using RISC-V: implementation, verification and challenges" from researchers at Institute of Computer Science, University of Bremen and Cyber-Physical Systems, DFKI GmbH. Abstract "Virtual prototypes (VPs) are crucial in today’s design flow. VPs are predominantly created in SystemC transaction-level modelin... » read more

Accelerating Software Development With Fast Virtual Prototypes
By Synopsys - 12 Jan, 2022 - Comments: 0

Most of today's largest semiconductor devices are highly complex system on chip (SoC) designs, which means that they include one or more embedded processors. This indicates that software provides some of the key functionality of the chip. The system cannot be fully verified or validated without both hardware and software. However, software development generally takes more time and resources to ... » read more

Shifting Vehicle System Development Left With Virtual ECUs
By Marc Serughetti - 04 Nov, 2021 - Comments: 0

Developing electrical and electronic content for vehicles has always been an engineering and manufacturing challenge. The road is an exceptionally rough environment for components: temperature and humidity change constantly while noise and vibration pummel all parts of the vehicle. The nature of high-speed travel requires safety and reliability, which must be achieved in the presence of the dif... » 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

Virtual Prototyping For Power Electronics Systems
By Alan Courtay - 24 Nov, 2020 - Comments: 0

By Alan Courtay and Gobi Kengara Palayam Appavoo Every day, power electronics systems play a bigger role in our lives. All-electric and hybrid vehicles are now common on our streets. Electrification of the aerospace industry is accelerating, and observers expect hybrid and electric aircraft to make an impact over the next decade or two. Many industrial systems rely increasingly on electronic... » read more

Electric Vehicle Development From System To Software
By Kevin Brand - 27 Aug, 2020 - Comments: 0

There is perhaps no higher profile electronic product category today than electric vehicles (EVs). Aggressive startups pioneered the market, but many major automobile manufacturers are now participating as well. Rising fuel costs, improved battery technology and increased environmental sensitivity have all helped to drive public enthusiasm for EVs. In response, developers are driving continuous... » read more
