This webinar looks at the challenges a Design Engineer could face, such as when various IP blocks within an SoC are required to work in different clock domains to satisfy the power constraints.

Abstract:
Various IP blocks within an SoC are often required to work in different clock domains in order to satisfy the power constraints.… Read More

Siemens Digital Industries Software Collaborates with AWS and ARM To Deliver an Automotive Digital Twin

 

According to McKinsey & Company, a digital twin is a digital representation of a physical object, person, or process, contextualized in a digital version of its environment. Digital twins can help an organization simulate real situations and their outcomes, ultimately allowing it to make better decisions. Anyone… Read More

Generative AI for Silicon Design 4

In the complex world of silicon design, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of our designs is paramount. As our chips become more sophisticated, the process of bug hunting—identifying and rectifying errors in our designs—becomes even more critical. Generative AI has the potential to revolutionize the silicon design industry… Read More


Handling metastability during Clock Domain Crossing (CDC)

Handling metastability during Clock Domain Crossing (CDC)

synchronizer min

SoC designs frequently have lots of different clock domains to help manage power more efficiently, however one side effect is that when the clock domains meet, i.e., in a Clock Domain Crossing (CDC), there’s the possibility of setup and hold time violations that can cause a flip-flop to become metastable. Synchronizer … Read More


Cadence Integrates Power Integrity Analysis and Fix into Design

Cadence Integrates Power Integrity Analysis and Fix into Design
by Bernard Murphy on 11-21-2023 at 6:00 am

Voltus Insight AI min

As integration levels increase, clock frequencies rise, and feature sizes shrink it is not surprising that all or most aspects of semiconductor design become more complex and demand more from design technologies. One example where the traditional approach is breaking down is in optimizing power distribution networks (PDNs)… Read More

AI pipeline min

I wrote previously that the debate over which CPU rules the world (Arm versus RISC-V) somewhat misses the forest for the trees in modern systems. This is nowhere more obvious that in intelligent audio and vision: smart doorbells, speakers, voice activated remotes, intelligent earbuds, automotive collision avoidance, self-parking,… Read More
