Abstract :
With the majority of chip real estate being filled with re-used IP blocks, the process of block assembly has significantly grown in importance. Marketing literature seems to suggest that assembling a chip from IP is as easy as browsing a library of blocks, assembling them in a block diagram and then pushing a button.
