When System Designers Must Care About Silicon IP

As systems-on-chips move into next-big-thing markets like autonomous vehicles or the Internet of Things (IoT), SoC designers are facing new kinds of requirements—environmental, life-cycle, reliability, and security, for example—completely foreign to their experience in consumer or communications applications. These requirements, in turn, are changing the way SoC developers must evaluate and integrate intellectual property (IP). And more than ever, developers’ IP decisions are directly affecting the success of their customers, the system developers—through issues that might never appear on an SoC data sheet. Papers at this month’s Design & Reuse IP/SoC Conference shone a spotlight on some of these hidden issues.
