Abstract The RISC-V architecture offers unparalleled flexibility in processor design, allowing custom instruction sets, memory hierarchies, and peripheral configurations. This study presents a model-driven approach using VisualSim Architect to explore the performance, power, and functional trade-offs of RISC-V cores in complex system-on-chip (SoC) environments. We simulate multiple RISC-V microarchitectures with configurable pipeline stages, cache hierarchies, […]
ARM corelink, Arteris NoC, UCIe, Bunch-of-wires, CXL and PCIe
ARM CoreLink, Arteris NoC, UCIe, Bunch-of-Wires, CXL, and PCIe – Designing the Interconnect is Not for the Weak-Hearted! In today’s high-stakes world of System-on-Chip (SoC) design, figuring out the best interconnect architecture can feel like navigating a maze. With so many choices—ARM CoreLink CMN700, Arteris FlexNoC, UCIe, Bunch-of-Wires, CXL, and PCIe—it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. […]

Do you really need AI predictions for everything?
We hear a lot of chatter on AI-this and AI-that. Can we take a step back and understand if and why we need AI. I am looking at this from the perspective of EDA tools for electronics and semiconductor designs. The constant challenge from users is the speed of simulation. There was the transition from […]
