S2C Image for SoC Prototyping Blog

FPGA-based prototyping offers advantages such as high-speed operation, real-world environment testing, and parallel execution that cannot be matched by software simulations alone. It enables developers to validate their designs and initiate software development long before the final silicon is ready. At the same time,… Read More


MCUs Are Now Embracing Mainstream NoCs

MCUs Are Now Embracing Mainstream NoCs
by Bernard Murphy on 01-16-2025 at 6:00 am

MCU applications

The moral of today’s story is that to succeed in a late-adopter market, sometimes you just have to wait for the market to catch up (assuming you have a strong early adopter market to buy your product today). I have been working with Arteris for 6+ years now promoting their NoC technology, and there was never any question that they offer… Read More
