A significant paradigm shift in design methodology is taking place with RTL design handoff. Shrinking process nodes, increasing SoC design complexities, and tightened purse strings have made the ...

San Mateo, Calif. – Not every body of RTL code will result in a workable physical design. When it comes to physical design, codes that are logically correct may be: incapable of achieving timing ...

Paving the way for students, researchers, and startups alike, India’s chip designers can now turn ideas into real silicon using open source tools.

The RTL Architect product represents the industry's first physically aware RTL analysis, optimization, and signoff system built on a fast, multi-dimensional prediction engine for superior RTL handoff ...

If you are one of the more than 2 billion smartphone users today, it is hard to imagine life without one! Breaking new frontiers, wearable smart devices and the Internet of things are the latest buzz.

Commercial power analysis tools have been available now for over 10 years, operating at the gate and transistor level of abstraction. For analog, mixed-signal, and custom designs, transistor-level ...

Front-end designers can access digital design analysis and debugging capabilities from a single, unified cockpit, enabling fully optimized RTL design prior to implementation handoff. With this tool, ...

The Tessent RTL Pro enables analysis and insertion of a large majority of their DFT logic very early in the design flow, performing quick synthesis and then running ATPG (automatic test pattern ...
