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 ...

In a previous article, Getting started in structured assembly in complex SoC designs, an unexceptional system-on-chip (SoC) design was shown to contain hundreds of intellectual property (IP) blocks.

You just signed the lease on a new office. It’s in a great location, and you got a good deal. But on moving day, you find out ...

If you want to use a display or camera with an FPGA, you will often end up with a MIPI-based solution. As of the Xilinx Vivado 2020.1 release, the MIPI DSI (display serial interface) and CSI (camera ...

Cache memory significantly reduces time and power consumption for memory access in systems-on-chip. Technologies like AMBA protocols facilitate cache coherence and efficient data management across CPU ...

In today’s complex system-on-chip (SoC) design flows, intellectual property (IP) blocks are everywhere—licensed from third parties, leveraged from internal libraries, or hand-crafted by expert teams.
