Hardware-assisted verification (HAV) solutions are the must-have verification tools today as complexity, functionality, and performance requirements grow. They are also mandatory to ensure that design power consumption meets the power budget allocated. This need was obvious at the 2022 Design Automation Conference (DAC), as chip design verification engineers relayed tales of challenges solved by employing … Read more

In a two-part series, Lauro Rizzatti examines why three kinds of hardware-assisted verification engines are a must have for today’s semiconductor designs. To do so, he interviewed Siemens EDA’s Vijay Chobisa and Juergen Jaeger to learn more about the Veloce hardware-assisted verification systems. What follows is part one, a condensed version of his discussion with … Read more

The automotive industry is delivering the first implementations of advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) for Level 2 (foot off the gas or break) and Level 3 (hands off the wheel) vehicles. Though it’s struggling to develop an autonomous driving (AD) system from L4 (eyes off the road) to L5 (completely self-driving and autonomous) vehicles. The challenge … Read more

The Design Automation Conference, as always, is a good barometer on the state of EDA and my area of interest, verification. The recent DAC offered plenty of opportunities to check on trends and the status quo. Remarkably, exhibitors and attendees were upbeat about the chip design landscape despite concerns about supply chain shortages and the … Read more
