The “shift left” of the development cycle is critical for the huge, complex chips used in such applications as AI and high-performance computing (HPC). Identifying design issues at the netlist stage ...

FPGAs, popular as they are these days for prototyping and/or production runs, come with their own little quirks. One of those is the nagging tendency for functional errors to appear in synthesis and ...

In the early days of digital design, all circuits were designed manually. You would draw K-map, optimize the logic and draw the schematics. If you remember, we all ...

True or false: ASIC design follows a very straightforward path that begins with high-level architectural definition. It proceeds through RTL design and preliminary floorplanning. After synthesis, the ...

While most of the ASIC industry is focused on solving timing and congestion problems at the netlist level, LSI Logic has developed and deployed an innovative methodology to resolve these physical ...

Because Onex is a startup, our design and verification teams require efficient design flows and methodology to be effective. During the design phase of the company's service processor, the Switch ...
