A significant paradigm shift in design methodology is taking place with RTL design handoff. Shrinking process nodes, increasing SoC design complexities, and tightened purse strings have made the ...

The RTL Architect product represents the industry's first physically aware RTL analysis, optimization, and signoff system built on a fast, multi-dimensional prediction engine for superior RTL handoff ...

Generally speaking, there are only so many books I can read on RTL design before my eyes start to glaze over. Having said this, there’s the occasional gem that’s well worth a read, such as Principles ...

The Tessent RTL Pro enables analysis and insertion of a large majority of their DFT logic very early in the design flow, performing quick synthesis and then running ATPG (automatic test pattern ...

This solution provides users with actionable intelligence to accelerate the register transfer level (RTL) design and implementation process. Front-end designers can access digital design analysis and ...

Chip architects are faced with many decisions when designing a system on a chip (SoC). The chip often contains some number of control processors, signal processors and peripheral cores. In addition to ...

Designers face enormous challenges for low-power designs. Whether it is IoT at the edge, AI in the datacenter, robotics or ADAS, the demand for increased functionality and higher performance in SoCs ...

Amid the inevitable "post-DAC" war stories and EDA industry buzz this year, one message comes through loud and clear: We're definitely on track to deliver on the promise of using electronic system ...

Siemens Digital Industries Software has unveiled the Tessent RTL Pro, a software solution developed to help integrated circuit (IC) design teams streamline and accelerate a broad array of critical ...

The standard approach for testing IC logic is the use of scan chains, with embedded compression as the standard approach for applying scan patterns. Embedded compression enables the same test quality ...
