Virtual prototyping solutions enable designers to quickly develop fully functional virtual prototypes of complex, multi-core SoCs with moderate effort and minimal risk. With the high level of ...

FPGAs continue to march to the tune of Moore's Law with new devices appearing at approximately 2-year intervals. Today, 65 nm FPGAs are available with capacities equivalent to 2M ASIC gates. At these ...

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., April 23, 2014 -- Synopsys, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNPS), a global leader providing software, IP and services used to accelerate innovation in chips and electronic systems, today ...

Even the most skilled developers and product designers can’t always know exactly what their users want. Software prototyping provides a functional proof-of-concept mock-up that identifies missing ...

Traditional ASIC and IP verification methods cannot adequately exercise the hardware and software components of today's designs. This is due to tool performance limitations, which impose a bottleneck ...

Right now, embedded developers who choose Linux face a bombardment of "what if" questions: What if it doesn't work? What kind of technical support is available? What if it isn't robust enough? What if ...

Virtual prototyping involves using various technologies—from computer-aided design software to simulation tools—to create highly detailed prototypes before making the physical versions. Car ...

In this blog I have been discussing the increasing impact of software on many aspects of our lives. In the past we mostly interacted with a software-driven device when we sat in front of a desktop ...

A critical phase during product design and development is verification of your design. Design verification can be attained either by simulation or prototyping. Prototyping is usually the preferred ...
