Functional specifications provide Web developers with a blueprint of how the website or Web component will behave or function. This means that the functional specifications should not detail technical ...

The iterations a specification goes through in a given project. Are chip design and verification specs, and hardware and software specs, separate entities? Automation of the specification process.

What is spec-driven design? In the digital world it is much easier to answer: digital synthesis. In the analog world, it can mean anything from simply defining specs up front to analog synthesis.

Do you need a design or functional specification? It depends on who your audience is and where you are in the product development cycle. People often confuse the purpose and role of functional ...

SPECIFICATIONS are the means with which procurement functions communicates the requirements of the organisation to the market in general. They are descriptions of user requirements and form the basis ...

What is an executable spec? In the context of an IP and/or SoC design and development, a specification consists of a complete description of the concerned IP/SoC or any subsystem. It consists of ...

Chip design is getting more and more challenging in terms of power, performance, area and IP integration. At the same time, competition and time-to-market are forcing much tighter schedules. The ...

This paper presents an approach to power design specification intent and associated enabled design methodologies that allow a scalable implementation of voltage islands. From a single holistic power ...

When reviewing power-supply specification requirements and supporting design proposals, we often see the minimum load identified as 0 A loading. Although not an issue in and of itself, this no-load ...
