Recently, in one of my regular check-ins with AMIQ EDA, I was pleased that they linked me up with an active customer. The resulting post summarized my discussion with three engineers from Kepler Communications Inc. They talked about using one of the AMIQ EDA products in the design of FPGAs for space-borne Internet connectivity.… Read More

Podcast: Will Arm Risk RISC-V?
What’s at stake? A candid discussion between Junko Yoshida, Editor in Chief of the Ojo-Yoshida Report, and Frank Lin, CEO of Andes.
Will Arm RISC-V? from the Ojo-Yoshida Report
Andes Technology, a Taiwanese CPU core IP company, began phasing out its proprietary processing architecture in favor of RISC-V in 2015, as it prepared… Read More
Truechip’s Network-on-Chip (NoC) Silicon IP
Driven by the need to rapidly move data across a chip, the NoC IP is already a very common structure for moving data with an SoC. And various implementations of the NoC IP are available in the market depending on the end system requirements. Over the last few years, the RISC-V architecture and the TileLink interface specification … Read More
RISC-V embedded software gets teams coding faster
RISC-V processor IP is abundant. Open-source code for RISC-V is also widely available, but typically project-based code solves one specific problem. Using only pieces of code, it’s often up to a development team integrate a complete application-ready stack for creating an embedded device. A commercial embedded software development… Read More
Scaling is Failing with Moore’s Law and Dennard
Looking backward and forward, the white paper from Codasip “Scaling is Failing” by Roddy Urquhart provides an interesting history of processor development since the early 1970s to the present. However it doesn’t stop there and continues to extrapolate what the chip industry has in store for the rest of this decade. For the last… Read More

Dr Ali El Kaafarani is the founder and CEO of PQShield, a British cybersecurity startup specialising in quantum-secure solutions. A University of Oxford spin-out, PQShield is pioneering the commercial roll-out of a new generation of cryptography that’s fit for the quantum challenge, yet integrates with companies’ legacy
IP Subsystems and Chiplets for Edge and AI Accelerators
From a business viewpoint we often read in the technical press about the virtues of applying AI, and in the early days most of the AI model building was done in the cloud, because of the high computation requirements, yet there’s a developing trend now to use AI accelerators at the Edge. The other mega-trend in the past decade… Read More

Visual Debug for Formal Verification
Success with Open-Source Formal Verification
The dream of 100% confidence is compelling for silicon engineers. We all want that big red button to push that magically finds all of our bugs for us. Verification, after all, accounts for roughly two-thirds of logic design effort. Without that button, we have to create reference models,… Read More
