The OSS CAD Suite is a collection of open-source tools for electronic design automation (EDA). It integrates several powerful tools into one package, making it easy to work on various stages of ...

Learn how to design ASICs as an FPGA engineer with these best practices, such as choosing the right technology, planning the design flow, verifying the functionality, and testing the quality.

Moreover, a common RTL code base must work inboth the eventual ASIC design flow and in the FPGA “IP demonstration”design flow, as shown in Figure 3. Figure 3. IP needs to be implemented on multiple ...

As a result, while the initial cost and time investment for ASIC design is higher, it typically offers a much better ROI on for larger or longer production volumes. Performance. While a reprogrammable ...

This paper describes the ENERSAVE research project, which is funded by the German ministry of research. The project target is a 30 percent power reduction for network nodes via introduction of a ...

FPGA design flow to look like Asic flow, says Cadence. Cadence Design Systems is bidding to tackle the issue of closer interaction between hardware and software development. The design tool firm has ...

FPGA design starts are on the rise due to the lower startup costs and re-programmability that FPGA devices can provide. However, large, complex FPGA devices pose significant challenges to an FPGA ...

Moreover, a common RTL code base must work in both the eventual ASIC design flow and in the FPGA “IP demonstration” design flow, as shown in Figure 3. Figure 3. IP needs to be implemented on multiple ...
