Different RTL designs often require different specially designed parallel interfaces. These different interface requirements serve varying needs, such as certain blocks not being ready when the design is under development. To speed up simulation during unit testing, DisplayPort needs to connect to other protocols. Instead of creating a new physical pin interface, this blog introduces a Transaction-Based Customer…

Let's quickly discuss design checks and asserts in the Spectre Simulator Platform. Asserts (also called device checks) help design and verification engineers identify the critical design issues in their circuit, such as extreme voltages, excessive currents and current densities, unreasonable device model parameters (transistor width or length, for example), or erroneous design conditions, with the help of expressions…

In an era where technology evolves at lightning speed, ensuring top-tier system performance in Arm system-on-chip (SoC) architectures is both a challenge and a necessity. The race is on for developers to harness the full potential of these intricate systems to stay ahead of the curve. But how can you assure optimal performance amidst constant change? This post discusses the design, assurance, and verification of Arm-based…

Johanson Technology has collaborated with Cadence to provide customers with encrypted antenna models for Cadence's Clarity 3D Solver electromagnetic analysis solution. Johanson provides antenna models for engineers seeking to include accurate simulation models (Figure 1) to achieve a shorter time to design closure for their end products.

The holiday week is here, and while this is a time for relaxing and re-energizing, it's also a perfect opportunity to continue learning and growing. Whether you're a student looking to stay ahead of the curve or a working professional with a thirst for new knowledge, our customer educational training bytes and online courses provide a fun, flexible way to learn during this holiday season.

With the arrival of Flit Mode, the information hold by the TLP header was reorganized. In addition to the base header, Orthogonal Header Content (OHC) may be added into the TLP. OHC works as an extra header for the TLP, incorporating information fields that are needed depending on the TLP type.

There are multiple OHC types. Each one includes a specific set of information in the TLP packet…
