半导体工艺的进步促使制造成本不断降低,但却使设计和验证成本直线上升,因此利用标准IP加快开发速度已成为必然的行业发展趋势。Gartner公司的报告显示,全球半导体IP市场规模在2006年达18亿美元,其增长率为24%。目前,模拟和混合信号IP市场是半 Advances in semiconductor technology have led to the continuous reduction of manufacturing costs, but the design and verification costs have risen linearly. Therefore, using standard IP to speed up development has become an inevitable trend in the industry. Gartner’s report shows that the global semiconductor IP market in 2006 reached 1.8 billion US dollars, its growth rate of 24%. Currently, the analog and mixed-signal IP market is half
