Part 2 of this 4-part series reviews the role of virtual prototypes as stand-alone tools and their use in hybrid emulation for early software validation, a practice known as the “shift-left” methodology. It assesses the differences among these approaches, focusing on their pros and cons.
As the demand for higher performance computing solutions grows, so does the need for faster, more efficient data communication between components in complex multi-die system-on-chip (SoC) designs. In response to these needs, Synopsys has introduced the world’s fastest UCIe-based IP solution, capable of operating at a groundbreaking… Read More
Accellera invited me to attend their #61DAC panel discussion about the new Portable Stimulus Standard (PSS) v3.0, and the formal press release was also just announced. The big idea with PSS is to enable seamless reuse of stimulus across simulation, emulation and post-silicon debug and prototyping.
