In Part 1, we reviewed the process of designing a modern hardware emulation platform. Here, we’ll look at the skills and training that are necessary to become a simulation expert and an emulation ...

Electronic system level (ESL) synthesis has a big impact in design. It may have an even bigger impact on the choice of environments for verification and validation. Software simulation remains the ...

Emulation is now the cornerstone of verification for advanced chip designs, but how emulation will evolve to meet future demands involving increasingly dense, complex, and heterogeneous architectures ...

“When defining a product, if you haven’t upset at least one part of the organization, then the product is probably ill defined and tries to address too many things!” That’s what one of my mentors ...

Verifying that a multi-million gate ASIC will function according to its specification prior to being built into a system composed of hundreds or thousands of additional ASICs plus thousands of other ...
