生态系统的重要性 - 调试、跟踪和测试.pdf

The Importance of Ecosystem Debug, Trace and Testing Increasing cost of performance Rock’s Law: Cost of a semiconductor chip fabrication doubles every four years Moore’s Law: Number of transistors in a dense integrated circuit doubles approximately every two years Vendors integrate functionality to create value 2 The evidence and its impact Increasing Complexity SoC Secure FPGA Security FPGA SoC SoC FPGA FPGA Multi- Other Soc core IP Single core Single Core Peripherals Multi-core 3 Complexity is inevitable. Silicon vendors will integrate functionality. Functionality will address different applications. Such integration of functions makes devices complex. You can run but you cannot hide. 4 Complexity complicates debugging.
