To keep up with time-to-market demands when SoCs keep increasing in size and complexity requires the adoption of better DFT flows and technologies. One of the most successful changes in ...

Fort Worth, TX. Designs keep scaling and taking on a lot of complexity, according to Ron Press, technology enablement director at Mentor Graphics. Delivering a corporate presentation Wednesday on the ...

Knowing where the electrons are within a molecule can go a long way to explaining its structure, its properties, and its reactivity. Chemists use density functional theory (DFT) methods, ...

Reading Dan Strassberg’s 1988 article “Pioneering engineers begin to adopt board-level automatic test generation” (PDF) made me realize that there are two DFT-related rules for success that are as ...

Why isolated flows negatively impact design schedule and PPA. Benefits of unified DFT, synthesis, and physical design flows. Physical implementation optimization methods for test compression and scan ...

Modern SoCs are experiencing continued growth in capabilities and design sizes with more and more subsystem IPs being implemented. These large, complex, multi-core SoCs need strategies for DFT and ...
