Reading for rewards | Read chip design books and participate in Mentor's rewarded knowledge test
I remember that some engineers seem to have plans to read more serious books in 2018. If you haven't started yet, you might as well start here. If you don't have a reading plan, it's always a good idea to read more books
.
✎From now until March 31

Book 1: Mentor Catapult Tool Case Study: Low-power design is the core value of ARM
Since its inception, ARM® has been committed to providing scalable, low-power, high-performance IP. The ARM architecture is the standard for low-power mobile applications, automotive/embedded solutions and Internet of Things (IoT) designs. Most customers who adopt ARM IP are interested in the low-power architecture of their products. Therefore, low power consumption is a core value of ARM, and every team member explores power saving opportunities at every design level. From the application to the transistor level, ARM can support low-power design with a systematic approach (Figure 1).
Every element of a system may generate power consumption, but this article focuses on RTL IP design with high power efficiency, including: setting low power consumption goals, understanding low power consumption design flow, and optimization techniques.
Book 2: Physical IP Exemption Management Using CALIBRE AUTO-WAIVERS
To develop physical IP for chip integration, library and module designers need to be able to identify approved waivers in their data to avoid unnecessary three-way conversations between IP providers, chip integrators, and foundries to review acceptable waivers. The Calibre® Auto-Waivers™ solution provides a repeatable, standardized process for waivers of IP results, streamlining communication and shortening lengthy debug cycles for design implementation teams.
