Patent ID: 10503855

Abstract:
Methods and systems for SDA of mixed signal electronic circuitry including embedded software designs for creating ASICs, sub-systems, and SoCs. The SDA system described extends IP reuse beyond the circuit and stand-alone verification capabilities that are common practice today which limit the benefits of reuse. By solving the integration problem first in a loosely coupled manner, complex mixed signal SoC devices may achieve higher levels of IP reuse with push button ease through the cloud, significantly improving time to market, design resource limitations, risks for first time silicon success, and the tasks of managing business multiple relationships of IP providers. SDA generated designs use a multi-agent method of operation, creating powerful and flexible designs that provide both NOC (Network on a Chip) and NBC (Network Beyond the Chip) for distributed system operation, and enhanced non-intrusive in-system monitoring for mission critical and safety related applications.
