New eBook shows how to avoid conflict among embedded test access ports when integrating SoC IP blocks

Wednesday, April 8, 2015

Cores and other blocks of intellectual property (IP) often feature a test access port (TAP). When multiple such IP blocks are integrated into a system-on-a-chip (SoC), their TAPs become embedded. Such embedded TAPs (eTAP) are prone to conflict with each other, which can prevent engineers from accessing IP blocks…

How to do at-speed functional verification of serial interfaces without functional software is described in new eBook

Tuesday, March 11, 2014

Richardson, TX – Historically, verifying the at-speed functionality of serial interfaces on prototype circuit boards has required the system’s functional software. But the functional software is often not ready yet when prototypes arrive. That means delaying the product’s migration into manufacturing. A new eBook published by ASSET® InterTech describes…
