emulation

Cadence Design Systems has upgraded its Palladium emulators to a maximum capacity of 2.3 billion gates and 50 per cent higher performance.

Leading vendors and users spoke of the challenges in developing today's SoCs when faced with a plethora of prototyping techniques - and the challenges that remain.

The Mentor chief discusses ESL-based low power, emulation, 32nm to 20nm and using tools in the cloud.

The EDA giant fills out its prototyping and verification line-up with a long-mooted acquisition, and is set to become the first of the 'big three' to offer an in-house soup-to-nuts flow.

The EDA giant has accelerated and integrated its tool suites and broadened its verification IP catalog in its new look System Development Suite.

This newsletter highlights recently-added content on the site that addresses the connected areas of verification, prototyping and emulation. We’ve also added more overview EDA Guides on major design flow challenges.

Cutting the cabling to simplify the emulation process.

Mentor Graphics has updated its Veloce emulator, using a newly developed chip to double capacity while, at the same time, developing new software to overcome the traditional handicaps of in-circuit emulation.

Until the software is ready, it's often hard to tell when two neighbouring units on an SoC could combine to push the package past its maximum thermal point. Docea Power aims to help.
