What Goes Where in a High-Speed SoC Design

In this opening chapter of Part 2 of this book, you will learn about the SoC architecture definition phase, which precedes the design and implementation phase of the required SoC. This phase is performed by the system architects, who translate a certain set of product requirements into a high-level description of the SoC design to accomplish. We will also detail the criteria that will be used during the functional decomposition stage in which a trade-off is reached between what is better suited for implementation in hardware and what is rather a good target for software implementation. Finally, we will provide an overview of the SoC system modeling, which can use many available tools and environments.

In this chapter, we’re going to cover the following main topics:
