To meet low-power and high-performance requirements, system on chip (SoC) designs are equipped with several asynchronous and soft reset signals. These reset signals help to safeguard software and ...

In the realm of safety-critical electronic hardware, particularly those governed by DO-254 compliance directives, ensuring design integrity is paramount. One of the most insidious challenges designers ...

SUNNYVALE, CA and TOKYO, JAPAN--(Marketwired - June 23, 2014) - Real Intent, Inc., a leading provider of RTL functional verification solutions, today announced that Hitachi Metals, Ltd. has adopted ...

An increasingly critical area of chip design is that of clock-domain crossings (CDCs). This goes not only for ASICs and systems-on-a-chip (SoCs), but also for FPGAs as well. All the problems designers ...

Metastability is bound to occur in VLSI designs during clock domain crossing. For a robust and reliable design, metastability needs to be mitigated. To understand how to resolve it and how to build a ...
