At the high end of performance, general-purpose in-circuit emulators can achieve speeds of 100,000 to 1 million cycles/sec but are typically throttled back to only 10,000 to 25,000 cycles/sec when you ...

According to industry pundits, FPGAs take forever to compile and have internal timing problems. ASICs, on the other hand, are power-hungry and require longer development time. When it comes to ...

In regard to network testing, the terms emulation and simulation are often used interchangeably. In most cases, either term will generally get the point across, but there’s a big difference between a ...

Best-in-Class organizations are three times more likely to leverage solutions for network simulation and emulation than Laggards, according to data from Aberdeen Group’s February benchmark report, ...

An increasing number of sophisticated, high-performance security and content-aware devices are at layers 4 through 7. This calls for, among other things, even greater sophistication of network ...

Chip designs today have more functionality, more black-boxed intellectual property (IP) and shorter tape-out schedules. However, they require even more design verification than in the past, which ...

R>epresenting a multifunction verification platform that provides both simulation acceleration and in-circuit emulation capabilities, the Palladium ASIC design ...

Emulation is now the cornerstone of verification for advanced chip designs, but how emulation will evolve to meet future demands involving increasingly dense, complex, and heterogeneous architectures ...

Claiming to be the industry's most advanced simulation acceleration and in-circuit emulation system, the Palladium combines a scalable simulation and emulation hardware architecture with an integrated ...

This paper describes the process and tools used in the verification of a family of Secure Digital (SD) IP cores. The verification process described included SystemC verification, RTL simulation and ...
