Read MoreIntroduction to Physical Design
There are numerous steps that are involved in the design of digital (or mixed signal) circuits starting from system specifications right till the chip is manufactured. One of these steps is a process of transforming a functionally described circuit (normally in netlist) into physical layout at the lowest level (normally
Read MoreThe Ultimate Guide to Power Gating
Power gating is a technique used to reduce ASIC and SoC power consumption by turning off parts of the design that are not being used or in inactive mode. Also, it is a very efficient technique to reduce leakage power in ASIC designs.
The basic concept is to have
Sondrel explains the vital coordinating role of Systems Architects
Reading, UK 11 January 2021. Leading edge digital ASIC design becomes more complex every year needing teams of dozens of people working on all the different aspects of it. According to Sondrel, who specialises in these advanced chip designs, there is a growing need for Systems Architects who coordinate every
Read MoreSoC Development Overview
This article focuses on the various stages of SoC development. In a typical SoC development, there are many steps that are highly dependent and linked to each other. SoC design flow works on multiple optimization goals and constraints and therefore requires various SoC development skills and EDA tools.
