Last week, I interviewed two designers at Broadcom for a customer success story. This was another very interesting project and the empirical results of their story are quite impressive.
The focus of the Broadcom story is I/O Designer. If you’re not familiar with “IOD” and you design boards incorporating FPGAs, ASICs or any large-pin-array IC, you really should take a look at our I/O Designer webpage.

And you know what that means? DesignCon is next week.
I’ve probably been to a couple hundred trade shows in my career, and except for boat shows and fishing shows, I really can’t say I’ve been this excited to attend one in a long, long time! The panels that Leslie Van Grove put together will be very fun, and I’m especially looking forward to the SciFi panel. I know…I’m kind of running this topic … Read More

You’ll recall a couple of posts ago that Mentor is sponsoring what promises to be a very fun panel at DesignCon in less that two weeks. The panel, “Science Fiction; Is It Really Fiction” will be Tuesday afternoon.
We have arranged a unique opportunity as well. Following the panel, I will interview panel member Gentry Lee. Lee is chief engineer for the Planetary Flight Systems Directorate at the JPL, … Read More

In my last post, I alluded to some prizes that Mentor will be giving away at DesignCon 2010. We are giving away THREE of these great Planet HyperLynx leather jackets (unless I can get my hands on one; then it would be two!) These are great looking jackets that anyone would be happy to own.
But wait! You can’t buy these in any store. You must come by the Mentor Graphics booth at DesignCon and register … Read More
