Post-Silicon Consistency Checking. Innovation in Verification

Post-Silicon Consistency Checking. Innovation in Verification
by Bernard Murphy on 10-26-2022 at 6:00 am

Innovation New

Many multi-thread consistency problems emerge only in post-silicon testing. Maybe we should take advantage of that fact. Paul Cunningham (Senior VP/GM, Verification at Cadence), Raúl Camposano (Silicon Catalyst, entrepreneur, former Synopsys CTO and now Silvaco CTO) and I continue our series on research ideas. As always,… Read More

1 Cadence Joint Enterprise Data and AI JedAI Platform

Without data, there is no computing field to talk about, no technology world to awe at and not much of a semiconductor industry to work in. There is no argument that data is the foundational piece for everything, has been to date and will continue to be. While processing an application’s input data is essential to serve the intended… Read More

Test Ordering for Agile. Innovation in Verification
by Bernard Murphy on 09-29-2022 at 6:00 am

Innovation New

Can we order regression tests for continuous integration (CI) flows, minimizing time between code commits and feedback on failures? Paul Cunningham (Senior VP/GM, Verification at Cadence), Raúl Camposano (Silicon Catalyst, entrepreneur, former Synopsys CTO and now Silvaco CTO) and I continue our series on research ideas.… Read More


Finally, A Serious Attack on Debug Productivity

Finally, A Serious Attack on Debug Productivity
by Bernard Murphy on 09-20-2022 at 6:00 am

Verisium min

Verification technologies have progressed in almost all domains over the years. We’re now substantially more productive in creating tests for block, SoC and hybrid software/hardware verification. These tests provide better coverage through randomization and formal modeling. And verification engines are faster – substantially… Read More

Innovation New

Modeling and verifying asynchronous systems is a constant challenge. Petri net models may provide an answer. Paul Cunningham (GM, Verification at Cadence), Raúl Camposano (Silicon Catalyst, entrepreneur, former Synopsys CTO and now Silvaco CTO) and I continue our series on research ideas. As always, feedback welcome.

Formal at System Level. Innovation in Verification
by Bernard Murphy on 07-27-2022 at 6:00 am

Innovation New

Formal verification at the SoC level has long seemed an unapproachable requirement. Maybe we should change our approach. Could formal be practical on a suitable abstraction of the SoC? Paul Cunningham (GM, Verification at Cadence), Raúl Camposano (Silicon Catalyst, entrepreneur, former Synopsys CTO and now Silvaco CTO) and… Read More


DSPs in Radar Imaging. The Other Compute Platform

DSPs in Radar Imaging. The Other Compute Platform
by Bernard Murphy on 07-20-2022 at 6:00 am

Radar Trends

In the flood of CPU and GPU announcements in pursuit of new technology advances, it is easy to lose track of another kind of platform – DSPs. Digital signal processors, once a niche platform for specialized applications, are now front and center in some of the hottest technologies. Because their strength in signal processing has… Read More

Clocking for High-Speed SerDes
by Tom Dillinger on 07-18-2022 at 6:00 am

SerDes architecture

The incessant demand for faster data rates across a wide range of end applications has led to the development of the most recent generation of SerDes hardware, achieving 112Gbps.  For example, network switches in datacenter architectures are starting to provide 51T throughput utilizing these new 112Gbps implementations (51.2Tbps… Read More


Using AI in EDA for Multidisciplinary Design Analysis and Optimization

Using AI in EDA for Multidisciplinary Design Analysis and Optimization
by Daniel Payne on 07-04-2022 at 10:00 am

Optimality min

Most IC and system engineers follow a familiar process when designing a new product: create a model, use parameters for the model, simulate the model, observe the results, compare results versus requirements, change the parameters or model and repeat until satisfied or it’s time to tape out. On the EDA side, most tools perform… Read More
