System Power Tool Supports SystemC This year, one of DAC's hottest topics was low-power design. Only a few system-level tool suites are geared toward low-power design. One of them hails from ChipVision, which is noteworthy because of its development of a design tool called ORINOCO.... — John Blyler June 2003 [New Products] AMS And MEMS Verification Get Boost In the wireless-device arena, both MEMS and analog/mixed-signal designs are seeing significant growth. But layout and verification tasks are particularly tricky. Tanner EDA has made this job easier with the latest release of L-Edit Pro, Version 10.... — John Blyler June 2003 [New Products] Real-Time Speeds Reach Embedded Using virtual platforms, VaST Systems Technology Corp. announced that the cycle-accurate development of embedded systems can now be performed at real-time speeds. For developers of software-rich chips, such as wireless devices and automotive... — John Blyler June 2003 [New Products] SystemVerilog Supports Verification To enable an advanced design-for-verification (DFV) methodology, Synopsys has announced broad support for the Accellera SystemVerilog language. By integrating verification throughout the development process, designers can improve quality and... — John Blyler June 2003 [New Products] SystemC Converges For Design The importance of system-level design was one of the recurring themes at this year's DAC. Many people see the SystemC language as the way to achieve high-level hardware and software design parity. To support this goal, CoWare announced the... — John Blyler June 2003 [Design Application] Keep A Close Eye On 1xEV-DO Some people believe that the wireless Internet may very well be the "killer application" for 3G. After all, it is a valuable medium for the transmission of many types of communication, including data, voice, streaming content, e-commerce, and news.... — Ebrahim Kal Kalbasi June 2003 [New Products] Library Targets High-Frequency Designs A new device library is available for use within the Ansoft Designer software. It is based on NEC Compound Semicon-ductor Devices' low-noise bipolar transistors. This high-performance electronic-design-automation (EDA) software allows engineers to... — Staff June 2003 [New Products] C-Based Design Support Emerges For 90-nm FPGAs As nanometer-scale circuits become more prevalent, tools will be needed to deal with these designs. One such tool is the DK Design Suite—a design tool for software-compiled system design. It provides designers with a C-based language design... — Staff May 2003 [Cover Story] Design Suite Bridges System/Circuit Gap Over the course of the past 10 years, wireless-communications-system design has become increasingly difficult. The old way of doing it required engineers to deal with measurements based on things like S-parameters and third-order intercepts.... — Cheryl Ajluni April 2003 [News] Schema Is Devised For SoC Design And IP Reuse Wireless devices are truly embedded wonders. The embedded systems within handsets and other devices propel these devices toward a smaller, more feature-rich future. To the engineers working on embedded design projects, however, their tasks don't... — Nancy Konish April 2003 [Column] Catch The Assertion-Based Design Wave For today's chip designers, integrating many different functions within a wireless device poses a severe challenge. The difficulty is not so much the design part. After all, the intellectual-property (IP) blocks that implement wireless functions are... — Dino Caporossi January/February 2003 [Design Application] WCDMA Baseband Design Faces Challenges > Third-generation (3G) wireless access will soon make its way into products like portable game consoles. This evolution will enable users to play interactively with friends anywhere and anytime. Compared to previous-generation wireless systems,... — Harald Elders-Boll January/February 2003 [New Products] Software Tools Accelerate Development > Hoping to advance the capabilities of digital-signal-processor (DSP) software development, Texas Instruments, Inc. and The MathWorks have announced two software tools. Both tools work to simplify development while speeding time-to-market for... — Staff January/February 2003 [New Products] IP Solution Pushes Bluetooth Adoption > As a cable-replacement technology, Bluetooth remains popular. Yet it has been hindered by limits in cost, power, and designer expertise. Synopsys, Inc. hopes to solve this problem by enabling designers to quickly add Bluetooth capability to... — Staff November 2002 [Cover Story] Prototyping Takes Center Stage Prototyping is a well-understood practice these days, especially in the wireless arena. Using multi-FPGA pre-silicon prototypes (PSPs), wireless engineers can simulate a system-on-a-chip (SoC) device at near-real-world speeds and under real-world... — Cheryl Ajluni October 2002 [Cover Story] Offering Merges Design And Test Many design-automation vendors have sought to ease wireless-product development through a streamlined design and verification process. Luckily for wireless engineers, Agilent Technologies has succeeded. This month, the Agilent EEsof EDA division comes... — Cheryl Ajluni October 2002 [Show Coverage] Interest Widens In Analog Mixed-Signal Tools In the relentless march toward smaller, lighter, and better mobile wireless devices, the ever-increasing integration of analog and digital circuits has been essential. This trend toward tighter integration is evidenced by the shift in importance from... — John Blyler October 2002 [New Products] Management Suite Zeroes In On Low Power PowerTheater is a power-management design suite that includes accurate register-transfer and gate-level full-chip power analysis, as well as flexible power optimization. Now, it has been powerfully enhanced. Each new function has been specifically... — Staff August 3, 2007 [News] Wireless Sensor Nodes Replace Inductive Loops For Vehicle Detection Utilizing their SureCross Wireless Network and their M-GAGE Wireless Sensor Node, Banner Engineering Corp managed to create an efficient and reliable vehicle sensing system. The M-GAGE detects three-dimensional changes in the earth’s natural magnetic field caused by the presence of large ferrous objects. — Staff February 7, 2006 [Wireless Systems Design UPDATE] Wireless Systems Design UDPATE: February 7, 2006 — Louis E.
