For simple circuits, it’s easy enough to grab a breadboard and start putting it together. Breadboards make it easy to check your circuit for mistakes before soldering together a finished product. But ...

Driven by the explosion of big data and expanding applications, chip design complexity is increasing. Applications such as high-performance computing (HPC), the Internet of Things (IoT), automotive, ...

QSPICE is an analog and mixed-signal simulator characterized by high simulation speed, accuracy and reliability. It is a new program and can be downloaded here. QSPICE is still in the demonstration ...

Many aspects of semiconductor design and verification have an ever-growing “need for speed” that has outpaced the performance improvements available by running on CPUs. Electronic design automation ...

A joint research team between the Center for Quantum Information and Quantum Biology (QIQB) at The University of Osaka and Fixstars Corporation has demonstrated one of the world's largest classical ...

In our previous tutorial, How to Build a Hydraulic Circuit in Automation Studio, we looked at the most basic steps to build your simulation. In this tutorial, let’s show you how to use it. Let’s start ...

Verification had always been an important part of SOC design flow. As SOCs are getting more and more complex, so is their verification. Verification of a design involves simulating the all possible ...

If you want to play old Commodore games, there are C-64 emulators available for just about any platform– but most of them are so high level, they’re really meant for just that: playing games. [antirez ...
