As digital design workflows increasingly center on modern, text-based development environments, engineers expect the same efficiency from design data management as they do from coding tools. Visual Studio Code (VS Code) has become a preferred platform for developing RTL, HDL, scripts, and verification assets, offering a flexible and extensible workspace that streamlines day-to-day engineering tasks.

The European Union's Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), which becomes mandatory in December 2027, is raising the bar for cybersecurity in connected devices. Rather than relying on software patches to address vulnerabilities after they emerge, manufacturers are under growing pressure to build security into products from the outset. For connected devices, that shift puts flash memory in a new role: alongside storing code and data, it must help protect device identity, data integrity and software updates.
