As AI adoption accelerates across markets, including automotive ADAS, large-scale compute, multimedia, and edge intelligence, the foundations of system-on-chip (SoC) designs are being pushed harder than ever. Modern AI engines generate tightly coordinated, … Read More
SoC projects are running behind schedule as design and verification complexity has increased dramatically, so just adding more engineers, more tests and more compute aren’t the answer. The time is ripe to consider smarter ways to improve verification efficiency. The added complexity of multiple embedded processors, multiple… Read More
The explosive growth of AI and accelerated computing is placing unprecedented demands on system-on-chip (SoC) design. Modern AI workloads require extremely high bandwidth, ultra-low latency, and energy-efficient data movement across increasingly heterogeneous architectures. As SoCs scale to incorporate clusters of… Read More
IP-XACT, defined by IEEE 1685, is a standard that pulls together IP packaging, integration, and reuse. For anyone building modern SoCs (Systems on Chip), IP-XACT isn’t just another XML schema: it is a productivity multiplier and a risk-reduction tool that brings order to your electronic system design.
What is IP-XACT?
IP-XACT… Read More
