As you can see by comparing figure 1 with figure 2, manual work that is often required to insert I/O buffers, boundary scan and test-related multiplexing at the top level of an ASIC's RTL code is not ...

But FPGA designers don't need to reinvent the wheel when developing a process. By borrowing proven practices from the ASIC design playbook they can achieve their project objectives without incurring ...

Historically, exploiting FPGA or ASIC implementation of DSP algorithms has been the domain of companies with highly-skilled designers and large budgets. Now, a new generation of tools is bringing ...

Many designers from the ASIC world are turning to FPGAs for new designs. According to research firm Gartner Dataquest in its Market Trends report “ASIC and FPGA Suppliers Answer the Call,” more than ...

SAN JOSE, Calif. — Making its fourth run at FPGA synthesis, Synopsys Inc. has tweaked its Design Compiler ASIC synthesis tool to enable designers to use the same tools and potentially the same design ...

Incremental design flow FPGA design software has borrowed from asic design methodology and introduced an incremental design flow (fig 2). In this flow, users can partition their designs based on ...

DESIGN ANALYSIS An ASIC-like flow for FPGA design demands ASIC-like design analysis, and both FPGA vendors and EDA vendors have stepped up to the plate in this respect.

SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 4, 2005--ProDesign USA, a leading supplier of high-speed FPGA-based ASIC verification platforms, today announced that it has joined the Synopsys in-Sync(R ...

Simulation acceleration techniques have been around for about two decades, but most products are based on FPGAs from one or two leading FPGA vendors. Usually, it does not matter which FPGA family is ...
