For most system-on-chip (SoC) designs, the most critical task is not RTL coding or even creating the chip architecture. Today, SoCs are designed primarily by assembling various silicon intellectual ...

The evolution of semiconductor design has driven modern systems-on-chip (SoCs) to unprecedented levels of complexity. Today’s leading-edge SoCs often integrate hundreds of intellectual-property (IP) ...

Many people have heard the term cache coherency without fully understanding the considerations in the context of system-on-chip (SoC) devices, especially those using a network-on-chip (NoC). To ...

Just to get the ball rolling, let’s start by reminding ourselves that system-on-chip (SoC) devices are composed of functional units called intellectual property (IP) blocks or cores. A modern SoC can ...

How advanced IC designs are replacing board-level systems. How an eFPGA can empower a system’s design. Designers continue to face greater challenges in the development of advanced embedded systems.

Excluding the simplest offerings, almost every modern system-on-chip (SoC) device will implement its on-chip communications utilizing a network-on-chip (NoC). Some people question whether it is ...

Vehicles can do much more than they were capable of a decade ago. Today’s modern connected vehicles have many convenient capabilities, from lane departure warnings to automated braking and ...

In an era where technology permeates every aspect of our lives, the semiconductor industry serves as the backbone of innovation. From IoT devices to data centers, every piece of technology relies on ...

L+R's pursuit of SOC 2 certification was complicated by hardware inadequacies and its early adoption of AI, but a successful audit has provided security and business benefits. In today’s rapidly ...
