Shifting Left

Designing Code, Breaking Code, and the Verification in Between

Like the venerable Kenny Rogers once said, “You have to know when to hold ‘em, know when to fold ‘em…” In the verification game, much is the same. You have to know how to make the code, and you have to know how to break it. In this week’s Fish Fry, David Hsu (Synopsys) joins us to discuss the challenges of static verification and formal verification, how to “shift left”, and how to make code just to break it. Also this week, we investigate how hierarchical timing analysis may solve your sign-off timing troubles once and and for all.

Global Coverage With NTN
In this episode of Chalk Talk, Paul Fadlovich from TE Connectivity and Martin Lesund from Nordic Semiconductor and Amelia Dalton explore the what, why and how of NTN technology. They also explore the role that antennas play in satellite communication systems, and how Nordic Semiconductor’s nRF9151 System-in-Package and TE Connectivity’s broad range of antenna solutions can jump start your next global IoT design.
