For the past decade, the semiconductor industry has been moving in one direction: shift-left, specifically, shifting more validation into the pre-silicon phase. The idea was straightforward: if software ultimately determines how a system behaves, then software should become a primary vehicle for verification.
The industry… Read More
Last week, Synopsys announced an expansion of their Hardware-Assisted Verification (HAV) portfolio to accelerate semiconductor design innovations. These advancements are designed to meet the increasing demands of semiconductor complexity, enabling faster and more efficient verification across software and hardware… Read More
SoC designs use many levels of design abstraction during their journey from ideation to implementation, and now it’s possible to perform power analysis quite early in the design process. I had a call with William Ruby, Director of Porduct Marketing – Synopsys Low Power Solution to hear what they’ve engineered… Read More
