Aldec Design and Verification Blog

Introduction This blog post continues on from  “Development of real-time SDR systems with Aldec HES” which was written by Mariusz Grabowski and recounted how the early development phases of a Software Defined Radio (SDR) were achieved using our HES platform....

During the development of a system on chip (SoC), hardware emulation and FPGA prototyping play distinct and essential roles.   ● Emulation is used to verify that a design meets its functional requirements, where the verification is performed by emulating the hardware and simulating (using a testbench) the environment in which it must perform....

While immunization vaccines are rolling out at an impressive pace, and as society slowly reopens, our best defense against the Coronavirus continues to be early detection and rapid response (such as self-isolation)....

These days verification teams no longer question whether hardware assisted verification should be used in their projects. Rather, they ask at which stage they should start using it.   Contemporary System-on-Chip (SoC) designs are already sufficiently complex to make HDL simulation...

Achieving higher resolution is a never-ending race for camera, TV and display manufacturers. After the emergence of 4K ultra high definition (Ultra HD) imaging in the market, it became the main standard for today’s multimedia products....

Have you ever worked on a group project where you had to combine your work with that of a colleague of a different engineering discipline but the absence of an efficient means of doing so affected the project’s overall outcome?...

At the beginning of September, Aldec announced the new version of HES.Proto-AXI software, our host to FPGA bridge solution. This tool supports QEMU for Co-Verification purposes which is considered as one of the main features....

At this year’s Design Automation Conference, held on June 3, 4 and 5 in Las Vegas and about 10 miles away from our head office in Las Vegas, Nevada, we celebrated our 35th anniversary with a resounding reaffirmation of our raison d’etre: the provision of verification solutions for some of industry’s most pressing challenges....

Will the world be a better place in which to live by having autonomous cars driving around us? Or would it be unsafe and scary? Maybe someone was asking such a question even when the first steam-powered automobile capable...

When should we use the term “Vision for Everything”, as vision-based applications are entering various industries? It’s been a few years since the emergence of...
