Designer's Corner

Tip of the Month

Integrating TLM with RTL - By Kunal Shah


 

1. Mentor VP highlights growing need for systems design reuse
Electronics companies all over the world are looking for new system design methodologies that will allow them to reuse as much of a design as possible in order to help them meet the challenge of trying to reduce design cycle times while simultaneously coping with increasing design complexity. More...
- By Dylan McGrath, EE Times

2. New semiconductor markets ensure continued growth
Within five years, the number of digital homes will match or surpass the number of homes with computer networks today. More...
- By Morry Marshall, Semico Research Corp

3. A Bevy of Boards Selecting for Success
The problem with the incredible expanding board was the incredible expanding price tag. The more options, interfaces, connectors and peripherals that went on the board, the more expensive, expansive and complicated the systems became. More...
- By Kevin Morris, FPGA and Programmable Logic Journal.

4. Semiconductor options for real-time signal processing
Designers face myriad core technologies, all of which claim to be the best for executing real-time operations for a given application. An engineer's task is choosing what delivers the best mix of performance, size, power consumption, features, and development tools-all without breaking the budget. More...
- By Leon Adams, Texas Instruments.

5. Cutting a fast path to semiconductors
Neither a magical nor 100 percent pushbutton solution exists. Most often, the move to higher levels of abstraction means making trade-offs in area, performance or quality-of-results and learning new methodologies and tools More... 
- By Richard Goering, EE Times

Technology Showcase
There are a plethora of new tools, methodologies and languages in the semiconductor industry today. Each user segment has it's own preference. The combination of languages, tools, IPs and methodologies has morphed traditional verification into a "Hybrid Model" process Read More..
