Tiempo selects IC'Alps for silicon implementation
Tiempo Secure and IC’Alps have announced a strategic collaboration to widespread silicon implementation of Common Criteria (CC) EAL5+ grade Secure Element cores for IoT applications. Specifically, Tiempo Secure is relying on IC’Alps’ expertise in physical design implementation to develop the hard macro of its Secure Element named TESIC, from netlist to GDSII.
Free ISS for RISCV-V CORE-V developers in OpenHW
Imperas Software has made available the first release of riscvOVPsimCOREV as free ISS (Instruction Set Simulator) based on the Imperas reference models of the OpenHW Groups processor RISC-V core IP.
Mobile battery life vs Moore’s law – a survival guide
The end of Moore’s law has been signaled for some time, but without a doubling of the number of transistors, battery-powered mobile devices rely on it to increase computing complexity. Gordon Allan offers a survival guide to life outside Moore’s law
FPGA simulation IDE adds VHDL-2019 support
Aldec has enhanced Active-HDL to support new features within VHDL-2019 (IEEE 1076-2019). These features simplify the language, lift certain restrictions that were present in earlier versions and introduce new application programming interfaces (APIs).
Digi-Key adds 1.5 million CAD models to aid engineers
Digi-Key Electronics is collaborating with SnapEDA, to provide over 1.5 million verified and high-quality symbols, footprints, and 3D models for Digi-Key parts.
Reference flow for ASIL D-compliant SoC design
Synopsys and Samsung Foundry has announcedthe release of a validated automotive reference flow to streamline SoC hardware design for in-system test, implementation, verification, timing and physical signoff for ISO 26262 compliance. This reference flow is targeted for automotive safety integrity level (ASIL) D autonomous driving and advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) applications.
Deca and ADTEC partner to enhance adaptive patterning
Deca has announced the signing of an agreement with ADTEC Engineering to join its new AP Live Network. The partnership allows ADTEC to embed an AP Connect module into its new 2µm Laser Direct Imaging (LDI) system to natively process unique Adaptive Patterning (AP) designs in real-time.
New Synopsys General Manager of the Digital Design Group
Synopsys has announced that Shankar Krishnamoorthy has been promoted to GM of the Digital Design Group. Krishnamoorthy, who rejoined Synopsys in 2017, is an electronic design automation veteran with 25 years of experience bringing to market high-value, market-leading physical design and logic synthesis solutions.
EDA software support for 5/4nm process technologies
Mentor has announced that Calibre nmPlatform and Analog FastSPICE (AFS) custom and analogue/mixed-signal (AMS) circuit verification platform are now qualified for Samsung Foundry’s newest process technologies. Customers can now use these offerings on Samsung’s 5/4-nanometer FinFET processes for the verification and sign-off of production tapeouts for their most advanced IC designs.
How distributors can aid design engineers in IoT
Modern design techniques have evolved substantially to allow for today’s engineer to focus on their unique value add, rather than need to reinvent the wheel for every new invention. And yet it’s widely accepted that nearly 75% of Internet of Things (IoT) projects fail. By Robbie Paul, Director, IoT business development for Digi-Key Electronics
