High-speed data communication applications, such as optical networks, wireless systems, and data centers, require high-performance, low-power, and scalable integrated circuits (ICs) to process, ...

Complex System-on-Chip (SoC) designs are fast becoming commonplace in today’s applications. Hardware designers must overcome many complex and challenging issues regarding cost, time-to-market (TTM), ...

Here, Ross Turnbull, Director of Business Development and Product Engineering at ASIC design and supply specialist Swindon Silicon Systems, explains. ASICs are custom-designed semiconductor chips ...

A full set of Open-Source tools is available to enable digital, analog, and mixed-signal ASIC design from schematic capture through tapeout. Tools installation is simply a matter of installing a VM ...

Here at Keysight Oscilloscope HQ, we talk a lot about ASICs (application-specific integrated circuits). But why? Who cares about the internal architecture of a cheap oscilloscope? All that matters is ...

Many embedded system designs are first implemented using FPGAs. This may be for quicker prototyping or to provide a platform for software development. Sometimes, the FPGAs will remain in the design ...

Verification and design engineers like to talk shop and discuss their experiences and visions. But even though engineers sharing stories around the water cooler (whatever form that takes—conferences, ...

At long last we come to the final installment of our four-part series presenting the findings of the Wilson Research Group Functional Verification 2020 study. In this article we discuss verification ...
