ReShape Inc. today entered the EDA software market, claiming to have developed the industry’s first chip implementation system that builds production layouts of multi-million gate SOCs in 24 hours or ...

In 2015, I wrote the blog “Why Implementation Matters To System Design And Software.” At the time, I mused that while abstraction is essential in system design, ... OCP, or PIF the NoC often depend on ...

As systems on chip (SoC) grow in complexity, the traditional on-chip interconnects, such as buses and switches, cannot be used anymore, due to their limited scalability. Networks on chip (NoC) scale ...

Ember has begun sampling the EM250, its ZigBee SOC (system on chip). The EM250 is an 802.15.4- and ZigBee Alliance-compliant single-chip offering that includes a low-power, 16-bit processor, 128 ...

Can fit a forth system (ttl rs232 access) in a single $10 chip these days. (ice40xx1k+ will fit the j1a). I have overclocked one up to 69MHz, usually clocks in at 40 to 48 MHz though.

The fabricated chip has demonstrated how a self-timed network-on-chip can perform all of the functions offered by a more conventional system bus such as allowing test access and debugging of the IP ...

GainSpan’s GS2000 multimode system-on-chip (SoC) implements Wi-Fi and 802.15.4/ZigBee radios in a single IC with an ARM microcontroller along with memory, multiple interfaces, and I/O capabilities.

The 28-nm node demands a holistic approach to design, verification, and design closure. This year's best in EDA from Cadence, Magma, and SpringSoft bring the necessary muscle ...

That raises the question of whether the Kirin 990, now confirmed to be announced at IFA 2019 on September 6, will fix that situation. It could finally be integrated into the system-on-chip itself ...
