System Verilog Assertions Simplified - Design And Reuse
Assertion is a very powerful feature of System Verilog HVL (Hardware Verification Language). Nowadays it is widely adopted and used in most of the design verification projects. This article explains the concurrent assertions syntaxes, simple examples of their usage and details of passing and failing scenarios along with waveform snippets for the ease of understanding.

Advanced Packaging and Chiplets Can Be for Everyone
The chiplet revolution is upon us. What began in laboratories as multi-die science projects has eventually evolved. A giant company like AMD, Intel or Nvidia can produce—either at TSMC or, in Intel’s case, internally—a giant, startlingly expensive CPU or GPU multi-die assembly using advanced packaging to achieve remarkable density, power efficiency and performance.
Scalable, On-Die Voltage Regulation for High Current Applications
The Aeonic Power™ HC is a high-current, on-die voltage regulation solution that delivers local, distributed power, enabling fine-grained Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling (DVFS) for computational cores, clusters, and logic blocks. It can reliably supply core power to processing elements across ...

UPF Constraint coding for SoC - A Case Study - Design And Reuse
Table 1 Power State Tables for SoC. Power switch is created for every switchable power domains. Bottom-Up Approach: A separate UPF constraint file can be created for each subsystem and all the subsystem UPF files are loaded in the SoC Top UPF file using load_upf command with set_scope specifying the corresponding instance name. In Bottom-UP approach each subsystem RTL plus its corresponding ...
Streamlining SoC Design with IDS-Integrate™
System-on-chip (SoC) designers face significant challenges when integrating thousands of IP blocks from various vendors, often presented in different formats. The manual stitching and debugging of these components can result in quality issues, extended time-to-market (TTM), and complex integration hurdles.
Design Rule Checks (DRC) - A Practical View for 28nm Technology
Vipul Patel, einfochips ltd. Abstract. The main objective of this paper is to explain the various types of design rule checks (DRC) violation, their causes and how to fix the various design rule checks (DRC) at lower technology node on block level as well as full chip level implementation while meeting the design rule with respect to latest technology standards.
