Sometimes good ideas take a while to catch on in engineering practice. The use of in-line assertions to document assumptions and check for problems in RTL code is one such idea. Long ago proposed for ...

SystemC 2.1 supports all hardware concepts introduced by HDLs such as Verilog and VHDL. V2SC proposes a methodology for automatic conversion of Verilog 2001 constructs into SystemC 2.1 language. This ...

Designers today find themselves adding more and more analog and mixed-signal content to their creations. And at nanometer geometries and gigabit speeds, digital circuits begin to look more analog than ...

All of the tools you need to work with the FPGA Arduino — the Vidor — are now in the wild! We reported earlier that a series of French blog posts finally showed how all the pieces fit together to ...

You finally finish writing the Verilog for that amazing new DSP function that will revolutionize human society and make you rich. Does it work? Your first instinct, of course, is to blow it into your ...
