Cswitch’s CS90 Configurable Switch Array device has an interconnect structure, the dataCrossconnect network, that delivers bandwidth at 40- 100Gbps for packet-based applications. For packet handling tasks, the chip includes embedded configurable blocks, Configurable Packet Engines, that support functions such as frame parsing, CRC and hashing, and fast address look-ups, all at up to 1GHz. For […]
ARC International is one of the largest suppliers of configurable processor technology. It licenses patented configurable multimedia subsystems and CPU/DSP processors that are used to design differentiated products. They are optimized for use in systemson- chip (SoCs) that consume less power, are less expensive to produce and require protection from cloning. The ARC Energy PRO […]
Although no EDA company counts among its membership (for good practical reasons), it is fair to describe the US Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) as one of technology’s most broadly representative trade bodies. From retailers and brand holders to the hardware and software companies that directly supply components for CE products, the CEA has a position […]
The real objective of design for manufacturability (DFM) is to improve a product’s profitability and manufacturing predictability for its market window and unit volume by optimizing tradeoffs between design costs and manufacturing improvements according to a holistic, lifetime view of the product. Current DFM practice often falls far short of that goal. For instance, the […]
