Automotive Functional Safety (FuSa) Challenges
Modern vehicles have become quite sophisticated, like a supercomputer on wheels. They integrate a vast number of electronic components, including thousands of chips, to deliver advanced functionalities ranging from infotainment to critical safety systems. This increasing complexity necessitates a robust approach to … Read More
Predictive Load Handling: Solving a Quiet Bottleneck in Modern DSPs
When people talk about bottlenecks in digital signal processors (DSPs), they usually focus on compute throughput: how many MACs per second, how wide the vector unit is, how fast the clock runs. But ask any embedded AI engineer working on always-on voice, radar, or low-power vision—and they’ll tell you the truth: memory stalls … Read More
TRNG for Automotive achieves ISO 26262 and ISO/SAE 21434 compliance
The security of a device or system depends mainly on being unable to infer or guess an alphanumeric code needed to gain access to it or its data, be that a password or an encryption key. In automotive applications, the security requirement goes one step further – an attacker may not gain access per se, but if they can compromise vehicle… Read More

Sigasi at the 2024 Design Automation Conference
Sigasi® will demonstrate its Sigasi Visual HDL™ (SVH™) portfolio during DAC, showing how it supports the shift-left methodology for chip design, catching specification errors early in the design cycle and fixing the inefficient HDL-based design flow.
The traditional HDL workflow cannot accommodate the massive amounts of… Read More
Something new in High Level Synthesis and High Level Verification
As SoC complexities continue to expand to billions of transistors, the quest for higher levels of design automation also rises. This has led to the adoption of High-Level Synthesis (HLS), using design languages such as C++ and SystemC, which is more productive than traditional RTL design entry methods. In the RTL approach there… Read More
The Transformation Model for IP-Centric Design
Semiconductor designs have been progressing over time to address wider product varieties and designs with increasing complexity. Organizations have been addressing intense time-to-market pressures by leveraging globally dispersed team resources. The project-centric design methodology, which once worked well with … Read More
