MUNICH, Germany-- March 10, 2008--The SPIRIT Consortiumâ„¢, a global non-profit organization focused on establishing multi-faceted IP/tool integration standards that drive sustainable growth in ...

This document presents an IP-XACT deployment case on a complex IP, called IZARN. IZARN is a digital IP which includes an ARM CPU and is targeted to be used in a SoC (System on Chip) for mobile phones.

The Open Core Protocol's unique flexibility, configurability and scalability characteristics enable integrators to build complex systems for high-performance domains A complete standardization process ...

How IP-XACT enables tool interoperability, multi-level abstraction, and accurate hardware/software interface alignment through structured metadata. Why integration automation is critical as complexity ...

In a previous article, Getting started in structured assembly in complex SoC designs, an unexceptional system-on-chip (SoC) design was shown to contain hundreds of intellectual property (IP) blocks.

Second of two parts: The creation of tools and standards for IP integration is progressing at a snail’s pace, but there is hope. New standards and fabrication methodologies may cause a disruption. IP ...
