Today’s chips are no longer just processors, they are entire systems. A System-on-Chip (SoC) brings together CPU clusters, accelerators, memories, interconnects and dozens of peripherals, often coming from many different teams and vendors. With AI, high-performance computing and IoT driving demand for … Read More
Front-end SoC design has always been a balancing act between speed, accuracy, and the large amount of manual work required to get RTL, IPs, and collaterals to be aligned. In a recent webinar, Defacto CEO and founder Chouki Aktouf joined by product manager Valentin Boyer, walked through how the company is bringing AI directly into… Read More
I have had the pleasure of working with Defacto Technologies for the past 10 years on SemiWiki and I am always impressed with their professionalism and ability to quickly address the challenges of complex SoC design.
From my perspective, Defacto’s technology is designed to improve productivity and design quality by enabling … Read More
The real promise of AI in EDA is not to replace EDA tools or reinvent design flows, it is to help engineers accomplish existing tasks even more complex design tasks faster, more safely, and with far less tool expertise than was previously required.
The webinar explores what a truly effective AI-powered EDA tool should look like, … Read More
As SoC design flows grow increasingly complex, IP-XACT has become a cornerstone standard throughout the entire development lifecycle: from architecture specification to design assembly and verification. Its growing adoption is reflected in the standard’s continuous evolution, from the 2009 release through 2014… Read More
With over a trillion chips manufactured every year and application requirements evolving faster than ever (across automotive, HPC, and AI), the pressure on SoC design teams has never been higher with design space keeps growing and schedules keep shrinking.
Indeed, for a complex SoC project, the number of possible configurations… Read More
Modern chip design has reached unprecedented levels of complexity. Today’s System-on-Chip (SoC) designs integrate multiple processors, complex memory hierarchies, sophisticated interconnects, and much more. All requiring orchestration using complex EDA tool flows. Months are routinely lost to configuration… Read More
Defacto has been a leading provider of SoC integration tools for large-scale designs for years. Most major semiconductor companies already use their solutions, and several customers will be presenting how they leverage the Defacto solution (SoC Compiler) at the upcoming DAC conference.
This year, Defacto is announcing a major… Read More
Modern SoCs can be complex with hundreds to thousands of IP blocks, so there’s an increasing need to have a front-end build and assembly methodology in place, eliminating manual steps and error-prone approaches. I’ve been writing about an EDA company that focuses on this area for design automation, Defacto Technologies, and … Read More
In this episode of the Semiconductor Insiders video series, Dan is joined by Chouki Aktouf, CEO and Founder of Defacto Technologies. Dan explores the challenges of building complex SoCs with Chouki, who describes challenges around managing complexity at the front end of the process while staying within PPA requirements and … Read More
