However, many attributes of the ASIC design process remain, so it's worthwhile looking at which design techniques and tools are relevant for SoPC use. Can the fast prototyping it offers replace ...

A co-design flow of packaging and ASIC design allows customers to evaluate and balance the many factors at play. A co-design flow also helps ensure that the final product delivers the required ...

The design specification is the most important step in the design flow as it details anything that needs to be considered or strict requirements that need to be met when designing the ASIC, these ...

The prototyping of a device requires information from earlier processes such as verification in addition to silicon from the neighboring fabrication process. Figure 1 – ASIC Design Flow This reactive ...

Turns out silicon design isn’t nearly as out of reach as it used to be and Matt Venn shows us the ropes in his Zero to ASIC workshop ... process. Part of a massive logic flow chart for an ...

A COT flow generally means that the system house ... The question of what must happen at the RTL stage of the ASIC design process is much clearer. More physical information must be accounted ...

Dedicated ASIC ... mature process, where the gate count may range in the 10s of 1000s, and most of the analogue circuits are IP blocks provided by the foundry and used many times before. Low cost ...

Alchip’s silicon-proven 3DIC design flow has optimized selected 3DIC ... for SoC design at mainstream and advanced process technology. Alchip has built its reputation as a ...

And, ASIC design complexities are getting more intense ... A qualified IDM will ensure that the IP can be incorporated easily into its process flow while reducing costs and time-to-market.
