目前的系统级芯片（SoC）的尺寸和复杂性都在不断提升，通常会集成数千个知识产权（IP）模块，每个模块都包含数百万甚至数十亿个晶体管。构建这种规模和精密程度的系统，复杂程度令人咂舌。 为了突破掩模尺寸的限制，并提高良率与可扩展性，目前许多 ...

The Open Core Protocol's unique flexibility, configurability and scalability characteristics enable integrators to build complex systems for high-performance domains A complete standardization process ...

This document presents an IP-XACT deployment case on a complex IP, called IZARN. IZARN is a digital IP which includes an ARM CPU and is targeted to be used in a SoC (System on Chip) for mobile phones.

Network-on-Chip is a very active field of research of the recent years. Compared to classical bus-based communication schemes, it implies innovative mechanisms as well as new ways of wrapping ...

With more IP components and growing time to market pressures, designers are looking for a way to build and update SoC designs easily. IEEE1685 (IP-XACT) was designed to fit this requirement and ...

The integration level of a system-on-chip (SoC) is defined in RTL, just like the rest of the design. Historically, RTL has been built through text editors. However, a decade or more ago, the sheer ...

Second of two parts: The creation of tools and standards for IP integration is progressing at a snail’s pace, but there is hope. New standards and fabrication methodologies may cause a disruption. IP ...
