ARM’s Cortex-M4 processor core represented quite a breakthrough in digital signal controller technology when launched in 2010. Adding a single-cycle multiplier and SIMD instructions enabled basic DSP algorithms while retaining the low power benefits of an MCU. New technology circa 2016 – embedded programmable logic – can… Read More
DVCon Sponsored Workshop: Verification of Inferencing Algorithm Accelerators
This short workshop will cover the verification of a custom AI accelerator as it is migrated from a machine learning framework in Python to RTL. Using High-Level synthesis provides a C++ version of the algorithm being verified. We will show how the original Python can be verified, and subsequent implementations, C++ and RTL, can… Read More
