VLSI KoreaWorkload and traffic model
Turn core counts and clock targets into a workload model with dependencies, cache misses and sharing. Core count alone does not establish instructions per cycle or application throughput.
AMD / SPECIMEN
AMD Ryzen 3 1200 · Summit Ridge
Polysilicon / lower-layer view of AMD Ryzen 3 1200 · Summit Ridge, photographed by Fritzchens Fritz from Berlin. Identification follows the linked photographer's caption. This is a documented photographic specimen, not a claim that every product with this name uses identical silicon. The original page contains the preparation, microscopy and capture details.

Contracts before RTL
Choose a representative producer/consumer path and specify acceptance, ordering, backpressure, outstanding capacity and reset recovery. Turn these contracts into assertions and test scenarios before optimizing the datapath.
A feasible physical plan
Obtain macro abstracts, pin maps, timing libraries and activity-based power estimates. Explore macro proximity, routing channels and power-grid reachability together. An annotated die photograph can suggest study questions, but cannot supply a netlist, PDK or signoff constraints.
