Because Onex is a startup, our design and verification teams require efficient design flows and methodology to be effective. During the design phase of the company's service processor, the Switch ...

While most of the ASIC industry is focused on solving timing and congestion problems at the netlist level, LSI Logic has developed and deployed an innovative methodology to resolve these physical ...

Engineering Change Order or ECO is the process of inserting logic directly into the gate level netlist corresponding to a change that occurs in the rtl due to design ...

Deep sub-micron effects complicate design closure for very large designs. Top-down hierarchical design methodology combined with physical prototyping increases design productivity and restores ...

True or false: ASIC design follows a very straightforward path that begins with high-level architectural definition. It proceeds through RTL design and preliminary floorplanning. After synthesis, the ...

When you think about it, logic synthesis is a vital but rather intimidating part of modern chip design. This process takes a high-level description of intended functionality, written in an RTL ...

If there's a truism in design debug and test, it's that the earlier you can find a bug, the less costly it is to fix. Thus, finding bugs at RTL is far preferable to finding them after synthesis. With ...
