A critical stage in creating a custom ASIC is verifying that it does what it is supposed to do and in the best way possible. Typically, this is done by synthesising RTL and running it to see how well it performs against the performance specification that was defined at the start of the design. By […]

Quad-core platform targets video/data processing at the edge
Sondrel has created a powerful, quad-core IP platform, the SFA 200, that is ideal for ASIC solutions for remote gathering and processing of video and data at the Edge with secure onwards transmission of the results. The resulting, single-channel ASICs can be arrayed together to form scalable processing solutions and additional features can be added […]
Software cuts ASIC modelling time from months to days
It is important to model an SoC well in advance to avoid costly over-design or insufficient performance and to create a hardware emulation on which representative end-user applications can be run. Detailed architectural modelling provides reasonable estimates of the performance, power, memory resources, and the NoC (Network on Chip) configuration that will be required along […]
Arm-based platform incorporates machine learning engine for IoT edge device designs
Designed to be the solution for an AI computing device right at the Edge, Sondrel’s new SFA 100 IP reference platform makes creating high-performance, battery-powered IoT devices easy and fast. The design has an onboard Arm CPU to locally process data gathered from its associated sensors for onward transmission via wired or wireless connection for […]
IP platform speeds development of ADAS ASICs
Bringing a new chip to the automotive market can be daunting due to the high safety standards required – ISO 26262. Sondrel has made this much easier for customers with the launch of its new, quad-channel, IP reference platform that has been architected with ISO26262 applications and the fast integration of customer IP in mind […]
Semi-custom SoC design excels at high-performance data processing
The success of so many SoCs rests in their ability to process huge amounts of data or signals efficiently turning raw data into knowledge. The latest addition to Sondrel’s family of IP platforms is a semi-custom SoC design to which a customer’s IP is added to create a bespoke solution for high-performance data processing. Each […]
ASIC reference design aimed at Functional Safety apps contains independent FuSa monitor
Sondrel has announced the second in its family of reference designs for ASICs that provide a framework to support a customer’s own IP, which results in a faster time to market and lower risk. The SFA250A is aimed at Functional Safety (FuSa) applications such as Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and contains an independent FuSa […]
