Silicon real estate advances have inevitably led to the complete integration of microprocessor subsystems together with custom hardware and software on single devices. This advancement has brought ...

Of course I will be in trouble once this blog is posted. This post is about hardware/software debug, and I tried to layer a set of different levels for the scope and applicability of debug. I counted ...

Debugging embedded designs is becoming increasingly difficult as the number of observed and possible interactions between hardware and software continue to grow, and as more features are crammed into ...

This is a bit of a laugh. I just saw a “tongue in cheek” David Letterman style “Top 10 Reasons” explaining why it’s a good idea to debug your circuit boards and systems using your OS and application ...

The concurrent design and verification of hardware and software has become a reality thanks to a plethora of resources in ESL flows, emulation, modeling and standards, and more. There once was a time ...

Hardware emulation continues to prove itself as a handy tool for hardware/software co-verification, where the objective is testing the integration of hardware and software. Part 1 of this series ...

New dynamic duo delivers 2X capacity and 1.5X higher performance compared to previous-generation Palladium Z1 and Protium X1 systems Palladium Z2 emulation based on a new custom emulation processor ...
