Benefits of a Common Methodology for Emulation and Prototyping

Overview Many design teams have used some form of hardware verification throughout their verification cycle for years now. Some engineering teams prefer to use emulation, some prefer to use prototyping, and some even use both. Why would engineering teams invest in both platforms? Join our experts to understand why you should consider bridging emulation and… Read More »Benefits of a Common Methodology for Emulation and Prototyping

UVM for FPGAs (Part 2): Solving FPGA Verification Challenges with UVM

Abstract: Today’s FPGAs have become larger in logic density and can handle complex designs with multi-million system logic cells. The traditional verification techniques of simple simulations combined with a detailed validation in the lab simply do not scale up any longer. Even to map a large logic design to a modern-day FPGA takes many hours.… Read More »UVM for FPGAs (Part 2): Solving FPGA Verification Challenges with UVM

A Novel Reversible Scan Chain Technology that Improves Chain Diagnosis Resolution by 4X

If you can’t make the live session, please register anyway and you’ll get the link to the recorded session afterward. The complicated silicon defect types and defect distribution for advanced technologies can lead to initially very low yield for new design with new technology. To ramp up yield as quickly as possible to meet the market window,… Read More »A Novel Reversible Scan Chain Technology that Improves Chain Diagnosis Resolution by 4X

Formal 101 – Exhaustive Scoreboarding and Data Integrity Verification Made Easy

Verifying the correct passage of data through a DUT in constrained-random simulation is easy to do for basic I/O cases – data loss, obvious corruption, and 1-1 data passage. But what about verifying out-of-order cases? Or intermittently dropped bytes? Granted, a testbench can be written to look out for these issues, but as the layers… Read More »Formal 101 – Exhaustive Scoreboarding and Data Integrity Verification Made Easy

Agile Planning for SoC Design

Missed milestones, lack of traceability, and costly respins. These are examples of what you risk if you do not take planning seriously during semiconductor design. A rock-solid planning process in the SOC Design process is a must. At the same time, the era of innovation is changing the way teams organize their work. Driven by… Read More »Agile Planning for SoC Design

Common Challenges when Designing IoT PCBs – And How to Solve Them with Cadence

While IoT devices may seem simple to the end users (which is good), the electrical design complexity of these devices is often very high. Designers are required to work with limited board space while functionality and speed requirements continue to increase. These tight spaces, combined with the required highspeed signaling, leads to increased susceptibility to… Read More »Common Challenges when Designing IoT PCBs – And How to Solve Them with Cadence
