7nm Design Success Starts With Multi-Domain Multi-Physics Analysis
By Arvind Vel - 28 Nov, 2016 - Comments: 1

Companies can benefit from advancements in the latest semiconductor process technology by delivering smaller, faster and lower power products, especially for those servicing mobile, high performance computing and automotive ADAS applications. By using 7nm processes, design teams are able to add a lot more functionality onto a single chip and lower the power consumption by scaling operating volt... » read more

Managing Electrical Communications Better
By Ann Mutschler - 14 Feb, 2013 - Comments: 0

By Ann Steffora Mutschler Managing the electrical components of signal paths between IC, package, board and system is no small task, and it’s only growing in complexity. Understanding how to correctly optimize the communications within a system is critical given that the I/O power is becoming a significant portion of the overall chip power as the number of bits and the speed at which t... » read more
