Click on the blue text to follow us 01 Preface The author has worked at an application-oriented technical university for nearly ten years. During this time, many students have learned new skills by running various examples on development boards, such as blinking an LED or driving a screen. When they successfully run these examples, they … Read more
Source: Content from IP and SOC design, thank you! @Mark: The biggest change in the past decade is low power design. Ten years ago, low power design mainly focused on reducing dynamic power, employing various clock gating techniques, and preventing unused modules from toggling. In the last ten years, static power leakage has become a … Read more
Due to the complexity of ASIC design functions, various IPs are needed during the design process. When designing IPs or using IPs, important considerations are based on IO requirements as well as the functionality and timing requirements of the design. In this context, understanding the various available IPs is very helpful for the design team. … Read more
You’ve Come This Far Don’t You Want to Know More? Recently, I’ve seen many people in the industry asking how to verify CPUs and what SOC verification involves. Today, I will briefly introduce IP, FPGA, SOC, and CPU verification. A typical chip team is composed of several departments: the Architecture department, IP designer department, IP … Read more
Source: Content from Automotive Electronics and Software, Author: Zheng Wei, Thank you! Introduction The functional safety of chips was once a very niche field, attracting only a few chip and system developers in the automotive, industrial, aerospace, and similar markets. However, with the rise of various applications in the automotive industry over the past few … Read more
The professional audio field is moving towards the IT era of networking. Standardized and open audio IP technologies represent a brand new direction for the future development of Audio over IP (AoIP). The two major standards of the International Audio Engineering Society (AES) regarding network audio applications—AES67 and AES70—lay the technical specifications for future networked … Read more
With the arrival of high-level intelligent driving, smarter cars need to process larger amounts of images, videos, and other unstructured data. Traditional MCU chips cannot meet the computational demands, while AI chips can achieve fast, accurate, and efficient calculations. We focus on data from Horizon, where L3 level autonomous driving generates a data volume of … Read more
E Course Network Integrated Editing Integrated circuits (ICs) are a type of microelectronic device or component. By using a specific process, various components required in a circuit, such as transistors, resistors, capacitors, and inductors, are interconnected and fabricated on a small piece or several pieces of semiconductor wafers or dielectric substrates, and then encapsulated in … Read more
The MCU chip refers to the Microcontroller Unit (Microcontroller Unit; MCU), also known as a microcontroller or single-chip microcomputer. It appropriately reduces the frequency and specifications of the central processing unit and integrates memory, counters, USB, A/D conversion, UART, PLC, DMA, and other peripheral interfaces, even the LCD driver circuit, into a single chip, forming … Read more
