As mask costs skyrocket for SOC designs on advanced process geometries, designers must develop new approaches for reducing multiple chipsets into a single SOC platform solution. Such a Platform SOC must support multiple product feature sets, interface variations, and individual feature functionality. Additionally, application-specific functionality can be configured through programmable firmware, firmware parameters, and configurable hardware, utilizing embedded non-volatile memory (NVM). more>>
