Embedded systems programs rarely fail because of a lack of execution capability. They fail because critical engineering documentation drifts out of alignment over time and distance. Simply put, the team is correctly following the wrong instructions. This includes requirements, architecture, implementation, verification,… Read More
Technical Paper: FPGA Prototyping That Creates Useful PreSilicon Evidence
As semiconductor designs continue to grow in complexity, FPGA prototyping has become an essential component of modern pre-silicon validation strategies. While FPGA capacity and gate-count equivalence often dominate discussions around prototyping platforms, the true value of an FPGA prototype lies elsewhere: its ability… Read More
