How complex is your chip design?
November 8, 2010
When planning new IC design projects, such as SoCs or complex analog or RF chips, R&D organizations that have a firm grasp on the complexity of implementing the design wield a powerful competitive advantage. Complexity is a measure of engineering difficulty and provides the foundation for reliably estimating engineering resource requirements and development cycle time for projects, which is the essence of good project planning. Can anyone disagree that consistently reliable project plans, which means projects finish on-time and within budget, translate to higher revenue and profits? But how does one get an accurate, quantitative calculation of design complexity?
