In a previous article, Getting started in structured assembly in complex SoC designs, an unexceptional system-on-chip (SoC) design was shown to contain hundreds of intellectual property (IP) blocks.

For most system-on-chip (SoC) designs, the most critical task is not RTL coding or even creating the chip architecture. Today, SoCs are designed primarily by assembling various silicon intellectual ...

U.S. District Judge Charles Breyer in Northern District of California has ruled that avoiding an IP address block to connect to a Website is a breach of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA). Some ...

Cache memory significantly reduces time and power consumption for memory access in systems-on-chip. Technologies like AMBA protocols facilitate cache coherence and efficient data management across CPU ...

In today’s complex system-on-chip (SoC) design flows, intellectual property (IP) blocks are everywhere—licensed from third parties, leveraged from internal libraries, or hand-crafted by expert teams.
