The series looks at the progression of hardware emulation from the early days to far into the new millennium. The series looks at the progression of hardware emulation from the early days to far into ...

The EDA industry has evolved into a case study on specialization. This was not true in the early days, when the MDV (Mentor, Daisy, Valid) trio dashed onto the world stage. All three were one-stop ...

Power hardware emulation and drive systems represent a critical confluence of power electronics, control theory and digital simulation techniques. This field involves the real‐time replication of the ...

Despite the third adjustment to Moore’s Law, which now sets the doubling of transistors in an integrated circuit to about two years, the march continues on toward larger and larger designs/devices.

My [LR’s] first exposure to hardware emulation happened circa 1995 upon visiting a major processor firm in Austin, Texas. Its lab was jam-packed from floor to ceiling with monstrous hardware emulators ...

As designs move beyond System-on-Chip (SoC) to more complex System-of-Systems (SoS), it’s essential for design teams to effectively verify that these systems function together as intended.

It has been proposed for some time that virtual platforms could be linked to emulation hardware in order to co-verify the software and hardware components of an SoC. However, that proposal now has ...

If you know anything about hardware emulation, you'll expect that emulating the Nintendo Switch is a pretty tall task, and as far as it goes for "all hardware," you'd be right. However it's now ...
