At 0.18 micron and below, handling crosstalk becomes a significant design challenge. Historically safe and pervasive design techniques may now increase crosstalk, and must be reviewed for suitability.

SANTA CRUZ, Calif. — Chip designers are divided when it comes to choosing synchronous or asynchronous resets, according to postings in the latest E-Mail Synopsys Users Group (ESNUG) 409 bulletin. An ...

To meet low-power and high-performance requirements, system on chip (SoC) designs are equipped with several asynchronous and soft reset signals. These reset signals help to safeguard software and ...
