This article is one of the series in the “RISC-V CPU Design” column. Note: This article is excerpted from the first domestic book that systematically introduces CPU and RISC-V design, titled “Hands-on Guide to CPU Design: RISC-V Processor Edition” by “Silicon Farmer Alexander” (expected to be released in March-April 2018). The phrase “dynamic as a … Read more
The History of MediaTek: From Establishment in 1997 to Global Leadership July 1995: United Microelectronics Corporation (UMC) announced its exit from the IC design business, transforming into a pure wafer foundry. Cai Mingjie took the integrated circuit design department of UMC to establish the predecessor of MediaTek – the Multimedia Group. May 28, 1997: Cai … Read more
Chip packaging, simply put, is the process of placing the integrated circuit die produced by the foundry onto a substrate that serves as a carrier, then bringing out the pins and securing the package into a whole. It protects the chip, acting as its shell, not only fixing and sealing the chip but also enhancing … Read more
RTL is an essential part of IC system design. How important is RTL design? Essentially, the logical functions of IC systems are implemented in RTL, so many IC projects are closely tied to RTL design. Today, let’s discuss how to excel in RTL design. Generally, once the preparatory work and product requirements are determined, engineers … Read more

In ASIC or FPGA system design, we often encounter the issue of data transmission across multiple clock domains, and timing issues become increasingly severe as the system grows more complex. Cross-clock domain processing technology is a crucial part of IC design. We need to learn and apply some common processing methods to enhance the stability … Read more
Chips are one of the greatest inventions of our time. Without the advent of chips, it is hard to imagine what today’s electronic era would look like. Everyone operates a “computer” the size of a house, carrying a huge “phone” while talking to friends far away, and the sound quality is terrible. It is precisely … Read more
Everyone in the electronics industry has a good understanding of chips and various packages, but do you know how a chip is designed? Do you know how the designed chip is produced? After reading this article, you will have a general understanding. Complex and Tedious Chip Design Process The chip manufacturing process is like building … Read more
