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 ...

Using a combination of simulation and emulation can be beneficial to an SoC design project, but it isn’t always easy. As electronic products shift from hardware-centric to software-directed, design ...

This is part 2 of a 3-part series called, Hardware Emulation: Realizing its Potential. This is part 2 of a 3-part series called, Hardware Emulation: Realizing its Potential. Approaching the new ...

HENDERSON, Nev.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aldec, Inc., a pioneer in mixed-HDL language simulation and hardware-assisted verification for ASIC and FPGA designs, has introduced a HES-DVM™ simulation ...

“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 ...

Debugging today’s advanced systems-on-chip (SoCs) is anything but simple. SoC verification environments require tests spanning billions of cycles (Fig. 1). 1. Many classes of bugs become visible only ...
