In order to speed up design cycles and to reduce development costs, use of external IP is increasingly becoming more popular. However, this IP based design is not free of considerable effort and saves ...

One of the challenges for present SoC designers is to ensure that their SoCs consume least power. Since almost all SoCs use a set of IPs, it’s important for the IP providers to give different power ...

The fastest, most efficient and cost-effective way to design silicon is by leveraging intellectual property (IP) blocks. This methodology reduces risk, allows a design team to focus on its own ...

Despite the work done by various standards groups such as the VSIA, GSA IP group, and SPIRIT, IP integration still remains quite challenging. First, one has to select the right IP business model, ...

Today's SoCs include hundreds of complex IP blocks with millions of transistors each. CSRs are essential for managing these IPs, with some systems having up to a million CSRs. IP-XACT standards help ...
