In today’s fast-paced silicon industry, hardware design is under constant pressure to innovate, iterate, and ship faster. Traditional Register Transfer Level (RTL) design processes—though foundational ...

Commercial power analysis tools have been available now for over 10 years, operating at the gate and transistor level of abstraction. For analog, mixed-signal, and custom designs, transistor-level ...

With the increasing size and complexity of FPGA devices, there is a need for more efficient verification methods. Timing simulation can be the most revealing verification method; however, it is often ...

Fifteen years ago, designers were buzzing about a new design approach: Register Transfer Level (RTL) Design. There was a fundamental change underway in how chip designs were created and implemented.
