What is spec-driven design? In the digital world it is much easier to answer: digital synthesis. In the analog world, it can mean anything from simply defining specs up front to analog synthesis.

The iterations a specification goes through in a given project. Are chip design and verification specs, and hardware and software specs, separate entities? Automation of the specification process.

Do you need a design or functional specification? It depends on who your audience is and where you are in the product development cycle. People often confuse the purpose and role of functional ...

We propose the use of XML for specifying and designing hardware. Many different methods for the specification of hardware designs are in use. The majority of these are based on either closed markup ...

Chip design is getting more and more challenging in terms of power, performance, area and IP integration. At the same time, competition and time-to-market are forcing much tighter schedules. The ...

Chip design involves translating detailed specifications into RTL code and creating thorough verification environments. This process can be time-consuming and error-prone if done manually. Ensuring ...
