Siemens Introduces Questa Verification IP Solution Support for CXL 3.0 Protocol
August 30, 2022 | Siemens Digital Industries SoftwareEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Siemens Digital Industries Software announced that its simulator-independent Questa™ Verification IP solution now supports the new Compute Express Link (CXL) 3.0 protocol for high-performance computing (HPC) applications. CXL 3.0 is based on the Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) networking protocol, which facilitates the rapid transfer of data between the world’s highest performance cloud computing servers as well as billions of smart connected devices around the world.
Available immediately, Siemens’ Questa Verification IP solution for CXL 3.0 integrates seamlessly into all advanced verification environments on any simulator. For customers looking to incorporate the new CXL 3.0 protocol into their next-generation designs, the solution helps customers optimize productivity and flexibility for the verification of block-level, subsystem, and system-on-a-chip (SoC) designs, which can speed time-to-market.
“By offering early support for the new CXL 3.0 protocol, Siemens can help customers differentiate and win in highly competitive HPC markets around the world,” said Mark Olen, product management director, IC Verification Solutions, Siemens Digital Industries Software. “Available now for early adopters of the CXL 3.0 protocol, our new Questa Verification IP solution provides a proven, robust and comprehensive verification platform that allows our customers to validate their next-generation designs with speed and confidence.”
Engineered to expedite verification closure and expose complex design issues, Siemens’ Questa™ Verification IP solution supports detailed functional verification across all layers of the CXL 3.0 specification. This latest offering from Siemens includes ready-to-use verification components and exhaustive stimuli that can help increase productivity and accelerate verification signoff. In addition, the solution can eliminate design biases found in many competing solutions.

Podcast Review: On the Line with… Designing for Reality
05/09/2024 | Duane Benson, Positive Edge LLCAs a technologist, if I were forced to come up with just one recurring theme that I might call a professional “nemesis,” it would be the difference between theory and reality. A lot of technology we have at our disposal works well in theory but falls short when reality hits. That’s not the only reason I chose to listen to and review On the Line with… Designing for Reality, featuring a series of conversations with ASC Sunstone’s Matt Stevenson, but it certainly helped that the title caught my eye.

Connect the Dots: Designing for Reality—The Pre-Manufacturing Process
05/08/2024 | Matt Stevenson -- Column: Connect the DotsI have been working with Nolan Johnson on a podcast series about designing PCBs for the reality of manufacturing. By sharing lessons learned over a long career in the PCB industry, we hope to shorten learning curves and help designers produce better boards with less hassle and rework. Episode 2 deals with the electronic pre-manufacturing process. Moving from CAD (computer-aided design) to CAM (computer-aided manufacturing) is a key step in PCB manufacturing. CAM turns digital designs into instructions that machines can use to actually build the PCB.
