IP companies have heralded a new age in platform-based design for years – ever since semiconductor integration capacity reached the point where entire systems could theoretically be integrated into a ...

Advances in both the physical properties of chips and in design tools allow us build huge systems into “just a few” square millimeters. The problem is that modeling these systems at the ...

With design complexity always on the rise and an increasing amount of embedded software encapsulation in designs today, engineering teams need to be concerned with power consumption in the initial ...

SLD: How long has NXP designed at the system-level for production chips? Frans Theeuwen: It depends on what you call ‘system-level design.’ We have been doing hardware/software co-verification ...
