Gaps are widening in the prototyping of large, complex chips because the speed and capacity of the FPGA is not keeping pace with rapid rollout pace of advanced ASICs. This is a new twist for a ...

Not long ago, most industrial control systems had modest software requirements — typically, a few thousand source lines of code. Today, however, an embedded control system may contain hundreds of ...

Semiconductor Engineering sat down to discuss partitioning with Raymond Nijssen, vice president of system engineering at Achronix; Andy Ladd, CEO at Baum; Dave Kelf, chief marketing officer at Breker; ...

Part 1 of this series outlines the CPU time-allocation problem, some constraints, and a hands-free phone simulation model. Part 2 goes into hands-free phone simulation code development. Without using ...
