SAN MATEO, Calif. — To achieve first-pass timing closure on complex ASICs, designers must ensure their chip architecture design and RTL design are physical synthesis-friendly. That was the bottom-line ...
The preferred high-level design methodology proceeds from high-level code to RTL code. Good verification practice requires that the input to High-level Synthesis (HLS) be verified first, via ...
Every design team is looking to reduce RTL verification time in order to meet aggressive schedules. Successful teams have moved their level of design abstraction up to the C++ or SystemC level and ...
HARDWARE DESIGN is a process of refining an idea from a highly abstract form to a concrete, physical implementation. Along the way, a design is continually transformed from a given state of ...
When you think about it, logic synthesis is a vital but rather intimidating part of modern chip design. This process takes a high-level description of intended functionality, written in an RTL ...
Thanks to a fast, built-in synthesis engine, Atrenta's SpyGlass 3.0 predictive-analysis tool detects very complex structural problems in register transfer level (RTL) code that would otherwise only ...
Mentor Graphics has acquired certain assets of Oasys Design Systems, which supplies the Oasys RealTime RTL physical synthesis platform for complex SoCs, ASICs, and IP blocks. The Oasys team led by its ...
WILSONVILLE, Ore. -- October 11, 2007-- Mentor Graphics Corporation (Nasdaq: MENT) and Altera (Nasdaq: ALTR) today announced a design flow that enables users to implement complex DSP algorithms in ...
