Taking the Risk out of Developing Your Own RISC-V Processor with Fast, Architecture-Driven, PPA Optimization

Taking the Risk out of Developing Your Own RISC-V Processor with Fast, Architecture-Driven, PPA Optimization
by Daniel Nenni on 04-12-2023 at 10:00 am

Updated Speaker Slide

Are you developing or thinking about developing your own RISC-V processor? You’re not alone. The use of the RISC-V ISA to develop processors for SoCs is a growing trend. RISC-V offers a lot of flexibility with the ability to customize or create ISA and microarchitectural extensions to differentiate your design no matter your application… Read More

Verification Options SW vs HAV

Modern day chips are increasingly complex with stringent quality requirements, very demanding performance requirement and very low power consumption requirement. Verification of these chips is very time consuming and accounts for approximately 70% of the simulation workload on EDA server farms. As software-based simulators… Read More

Multiphysics simulation is the process of computational methods to model and analyze a system to understand its response to different physical interactions like heat transfer, electromagnetic fields, and mechanical structures. Using this technique, designers can generate physics-based models and analyze the behavior… Read More


Feeding the Growing Hunger for Bandwidth with High-Speed Ethernet

Feeding the Growing Hunger for Bandwidth with High-Speed Ethernet
by Madhumita Sanyal on 04-10-2023 at 6:00 am

Picture2

The increasing demands for massive amounts of data are driving high-performance computing (HPC) to advance the pace in the High-speed Ethernet world. This in turn, is increasing the levels of complexity when designing networking SoCs like switches, retimers, and pluggable modules. This growth is accelerating the need for … Read More

Aart keynote

Synopsys pulled out all the stops for this event. I attended the first full day, tightly scripted from Aart’s keynote kick off to 1×1 interviews with Synopsys executives to a fireside chat between Sassine Ghazi (President and COO) and Rob Aitken (ex-Fellow at Arm, now Distinguished Architect at Synopsys). That’s a lot of … Read More


AI in Verification – A Cadence Perspective

AI in Verification – A Cadence Perspective
by Bernard Murphy on 04-04-2023 at 6:00 am

Opening slide min

AI is everywhere or so it seems, though often promoted with insufficient detail to understand methods. I now look for substance, not trade secrets but how exactly they using AI. Matt Graham (Product Engineering Group Director at Cadence) gave a good and substantive tutorial pitch at DVCon, with real examples of goal-centric optimization… Read More

SysML to VisualSim, Media App min

The Systems Modeling Language (SysML) is used by systems engineers that want to specify, analyze, design, verify and validate a specific system. SysML started out as an open-source project, and it’s a subset of the Unified Modeling Language (UML). Mirabilis Design has a tool called VisualSim Architect that imports your… Read More
