In this paper, we present a performance analysis for an MPEG-4 video codec based on the on-chip network communication architecture. The existing on-chip buses of system-on-a-chip (SoC) have some limitation on data traffic bandwidth since a large number of silicon IPs share the bus. An on-chip network is introduced to solve the problem of on-chip buses, in which the concept of a computer network is applied to the communication architecture of SoC. We compared the performance of the MPEG-4 video codec based on the on-chip network and Advanced Micro-controller Bus Architecture (AMBA) on-chip bus. Experimental results show that the performance of the MPEG-4 video codec based on the on-chip network is improved over 50% compared to the design based on a multi-layer AMBA bus.

This paper describes design and fabrication issues of the SiP(System in Package) one-chip for a portable digital broadcasting receiver. It includes RF tuner chip, demodulator chip and passive components for the receiver system. When we apply the SiP one-chip technology to the broadcasting receiver, the system board size can be reduced from $776mm^2$ to $144mm^2$. SiP one-chip has an advantage that the area reduces more 81% than separated chips. Also the sensitivity performance advances -1dBm about 36 channels in the RF weak electric field, the power consumption reduces about 2mW and the C/N keeps on the same level.

A multi-layer design is applied to mitigate single event effect (SEE) in a 28 nm System-on-Chip (SoC). It depends on asymmetric multiprocessing (AMP), redundancy and system watchdog. Irradiation tests utilized 70 and 90 MeV proton beams to examine its performance through comparative analysis. Via examining SEEs in on-chip memory (OCM), compared with the trial without applying the multi-layer design, the test results demonstrate that the adopted multi-layer design can effectively mitigate SEEs in the SoC.

Recently effective system-on-a-chip design methodology is developed, and ASIC chip design is much studied for motor control. This paper investigates the design and implementation of ASIC chip for sensorless speed control of induction motor using VHDL which is a standarded hardware description language. The sensorless control strategy is to design an adaptive state observer for flux estimation and to estimate the rotor speed from the estimated rotor flux and stator current. The presented system is implemented using a simple electronic circuit based on FPGA.

This paper presents a method of constructing the system-on-chip(SoC) based on embedded systems. The proposed method is more compact and effectiveness than former methods. The requirements generation start high level performance simulation and then passes to an executable specification suitable for implementation using a hardware/software co-design tool. The reuse of pre-exiting components is supported, as well as synthesis of the system interface, but only after much work is done to program the hardware/software co-design tool. The actual design flow described allows feedback among all design levels, e.g. from implementation up to requirements, throughout the process. In the future, it is necessary to development the advanced method of constructing system-on-chip based on embedded systems.

In this paper, we have constructed an expert system for semiconductor chip encapsulation which combines a knowledge-based system with CAE software. The knowledge-base module includes heuristic and pre analysis knowledge for evaluation and redesign. Evaluation of the initial design and generation of redesign recommendations can be developed from the rules as applied to a given chip package. The CAE programs can be used for simulating the filling and packing stage of encapsulation process. The expert system is a new tool which enables package design or process conditions with high yields and high productivity.

Dccisions of optimal filling conditions for the chip encapsulation have been done primarily by an ad hoc use of expertise accumulated over the years because the chip encapsulation process is quite complicated. The current CAE systems do not provide mold designers with necessary knowledge of the chip encapsulation for the successful design of optimal filling except flow simulation capability. There have been no attempts to solve the optimal filling problem in the process of the chip encapsulation. In this paper, we have constructed an design system for optimal filling to avoid short shot in the chip encapsulation process which combines an optimization methodology with CAE software.

Silicon semiconductor technology agree that the number of transistors on a chip will keep growing exponentially, and it is pushing technology toward the System-On-Chip. In SoC Design, Specification at system level is key of success. Executable Specification reduce verification time.
