The greatest challenge facing embedded system developers is debugging software. Embedded systems have become highly complex, running real-time operating systems, connectivity stacks, USB, and security ...

Editor’s Note: Lauro Rizzatti went to Russell Klein, director of engineering at Mentor Graphics and a hardware emulation expert, to learn more about hybrid emulation. This column is co-authored by the ...

In a typical system-on-a-chip (SoC) development project, chip architects will make a given SoC’s initial specification available to design teams years in advance of the silicon. As requirements change ...

Scandump is an advanced silicon debugging technique that ingeniously repurposes DFT (Design For Testability) scan chains for functional debugging. This method allows for the extraction of states from ...
