Nano Silicon
HQ: Australia
Founded in 1999, Nano Silicon provides solutions, specializing in the fast growing area of high speed connectivity and data converters. We have resources in Brisbane (Australia), Wuxi and Chengdu (China) to facilitate design services and customer support, in addition to the availability of cost-effective Intellectual Property (IPs) for licensing. Nano Silicon's high speed connectivity products are made available as Intellectual Property (IP) licenses, designed to meet the demands for faster and more reliable data transmission. We provide "royalty-plus-fee" based technology licensing. Customers may license and integrate silicon IP from Nano Silicon, or have IP designed to meet their specific requirements. We offer mixed-signal IP licensing, particularly in high-speed connectivity with up to several gigabits of throughput capability. Our designs adhere to world-class design methodology utilizing state-of-art sign-off tools. We accept design specification(s) as design input(s), GDSII and/or packaged chip/module can be design output(s). Where necessary, we are also able to support silicon verification evaluation board(s).

An Effective way to drastically reduce bug fixing time in SoC Verification

Many times we are not aware of very useful EDA tool options which are already available. Even if such options are very well documented, we don't look at them and try them. But some options are very useful and if you know them, it makes job of design engineer and/or verification engineer very easy. Here, I am going to talk about one very powerful and useful VSIM option of QuestaSim. It is VCDSTIM option of VSIM.

Designing Around an Encrypted Netlist: Is The Pain Worth the Gain?

Oftentimes, in order to save on the cost of IP, a company will select an encrypted netlist as the deliverable instead of the RTL source code. This is especially common among companies looking to develop in FPGA devices where they can often get the necessary IP from their FPGA vendor.

STBus complex interconnect design and verification for a HDTV SoC

To support High Definition Television (HDTV) application, the System on Chip (SoC) presented in this paper has to support multiple and concurrent internal processes. Most of these operations read data from memory, process them and store the resulting data into memory. Each functional unit of the system is responsible for a specific data processing, but all the data are stored in the same shared external memories.
