Getting the most from system-on-a-chip (SoC) designs requires optimal design of the logic surrounding the embedded processor. As SoCs have increased in complexity, optimizing the interfaces between ...

SANTA CLARA, Calif. — Japan's Advantest Corp. here has established a new U.S. R&D center that will help develop a future line of automatic test equipment (ATE) for system-on-a-chip (SoC) designs, ...

Pain points of the existing floorplan designing process. How artificial intelligence can optimize this process to reduce the time taken from weeks to just hours. Potential applications of expanding ...

For most system-on-chip (SoC) designs, the most critical task is not RTL coding or even creating the chip architecture. Today, SoCs are designed primarily by assembling various silicon intellectual ...

The purpose of electronic design automation (EDA) software is to solve SoC design problems and simplify the entire process. For design for test (DFT), this means aiming to streamline the DFT ...

In today’s complex system-on-chip (SoC) design flows, intellectual property (IP) blocks are everywhere—licensed from third parties, leveraged from internal libraries, or hand-crafted by expert teams.
