Fort Worth, TX. Designs keep scaling and taking on a lot of complexity, according to Ron Press, technology enablement director at Mentor Graphics. Delivering a corporate presentation Wednesday on the ...

To keep up with time-to-market demands when SoCs keep increasing in size and complexity requires the adoption of better DFT flows and technologies. One of the most successful changes in ...

One of the key factors in the design and development of submicron chip designs is the setting of good physical and timing constraints, no matter what type of design methodology you use. Constraints ...

Traditionally, printed circuit board (PCB) design engineers – and, more recently, designers of System-in-Package (SiP) assemblies – have captured their hardware designs using pages in a flat schematic ...

Hierarchical design methodologies that introduce concurrency into the design flow are the answer to burgeoning circuit complexity. Synopsys's Steve Kister discusses various challenges to design ...

With the increasing need for real time complex applications, number of processors in the same MPSOC design is becoming a critical parameter to evaluate its performance. As a first step, we design a ...
