Beyond Von Neumann: Toward a Unified Deterministic Architecture
By Thang Tran
For more than half a century, the foundations of computing have stood on a single architecture: the Von Neumann or Harvard model. Nearly all modern chips—CPUs, GPUs, and even many specialized accelerators—rely on some variant of this design. Over time, the industry has layered on complexity and specialization to… Read More
Static Timing Analysis Signoff – A comprehensive and Robust Approach
By Zameer Mohammed
Once a chip is taped out, changes in design are not possible – Silicon is unforgiving, does not allow postproduction modifications. In contrast, software can be updated after release, but chips remain fixed. Static Timing Analysis (STA) signoff serves as a crucial safeguard against silicon failures.
In modern… Read More
