Cloud native EDA tools & pre-optimized hardware platforms
We are in an era of Smart Everything. Our voices can activate an array of functions inside our homes¡ªlights, thermostats, music. Our cars act like a second pair of eyes on the road, taking the controls when they sense an imminent roadway threat. Gadgets that fit in our pockets entertain us with movies and interactive games, wherever we are.
The way that we live, work, and play is being transformed as devices get smarter and connected. High-performance silicon chips and sophisticated software are making all of this possible. Watch this new video to see how Smart Everything touches so many aspects of our lives.
Let¡¯s take a look at five key innovations that are making everything smarter¡ªand see how electronic design automation (EDA) tools, IP, and software integrity solutions are enabling the chips and software inside.
Machines that can learn and solve problems on their own are making factories more productive, vehicles more autonomous, and everyday appliances more responsive. The technology is even enhancing chip design itself. AI is an important differentiator, and it all starts with smart chips and secure software developed with the right tools and solutions.
Today¡¯s vehicles are designed to do more on their own, thanks to how pervasive electronic components, and increasingly software content, have become under the hood (and throughout). Cars can brake on their own, alert drivers ahead of a potential collision, and detect blind spots, all while providing more vehicle performance data, tighter smartphone integration, and a variety of infotainment options. When it comes to safety-critical applications like advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), adaptive cruise control, and even autonomous driving, you need smarter, more secure chips and software.
With the deployment of 5G networks comes high speed, bandwidth, and data throughput that will enhance everything from smartphones to cars and smart cities. Delivering up to 100x the speed, 100x the capacity, and 10x less latency versus 4G LTE, 5G technology will transform a variety of applications. This requires advanced chipsets and telecommunications and network infrastructure. A variety of technologies can help support a seamless, secure 5G experience:
From everyday gadgets to large systems, more of the electronics we use are getting smarter and connected. The next generation of IoT devices will only demand more processing power, energy efficiency, and data security.
As more mission-critical applications migrate to the cloud, data centers need fast, energy-efficient silicon chips to power them. Other growing concerns highlighted by this shift are the needs for data privacy and software security. The EDA world provides just the tools to design and verify chips in the cloud and to migrate software applications there.
With a broad portfolio of advanced technologies for chip design, verification, IP, integration, and application security testing and quality testing, Synopsys is here to help you bring Smart Everything to life.
