What: DesignCon TecForum (SA-TF6) The Aptix TecForum addresses what's new in an RTL-to-PCB mapping and debugging flow that uses multiple state-of-the-art FPGAs. The following topics will be addressed: hardware/software testing, design checking, partitioning, co-emulation, debug To correct a problem in hardware or software. Debugging software means locating the errors in the source code (the program logic). Debugging hardware means finding errors in the circuit design (logical circuits) or in the physical interconnections of the circuits. , FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) A type of gate array that is programmed in the field rather than in a semiconductor fab. Containing up to hundreds of thousands of gates, there are a variety of FPGA architectures on the market. synthesis and place-and-route encapsulation (1) In object technology, the creation of self-contained modules that contain both the data and the processing. See object-oriented programming. (2) The transmission of one network protocol within another. , IP encryption, printed circuit-board targeting, and hardware self-test.
