How To Justify A Data Center
By Ann Mutschler - 24 Mar, 2022 - Comments: 0

The breadth of cloud capabilities and improvements in cost and licensing structures is prompting chipmakers to consider offloading at least some of their design work into the cloud. Cloud is a viable business today for semiconductor design. Over the past decade, the interest in moving to cloud computing has grown from an idea that was fun to talk about — but which no one was serious about ... » read more

The Value Of RF Harmonic Balance Analyses For Analog Verification
By Pradeep Thiagarajan - 24 Mar, 2022 - Comments: 0

By Pradeep Thiagarajan and Scott Guyton The world we live in is intricately connected by electronic systems that are expected to function flawlessly to satisfy consumer needs. Functionality violations beyond certain tolerance levels are frowned upon and negatively impact the quality level of products. These systems are required to function accurately, in tandem with other interdependent syst... » read more

Improve Your Verification Methodology: Hunt Bugs Flying In Squadrons
By Philippe Luc - 24 Mar, 2022 - Comments: 0

After analyzing bugs on several generations of CPUs, I came to the conclusion that “bugs fly in squadrons.” In other words, when a bug is found in a given area of the design, the probability that there are other bugs with similar conditions, in the same area of the design, is quite high. Processor bugs don’t fly alone Finding a CPU bug is always satisfying, however it should not be an e... » read more

Radar For Automotive: Why Do We Need Radar?
By Marta Martinez Vazquez - 24 Mar, 2022 - Comments: 0

Communications and sensing technologies have transformed the automotive industry. More and more, cars include features and systems to interact with their environment, gaining awareness of the surrounding space, networking with each other and with the infrastructure, and detecting possible sources of danger. We can consider that vehicles have acquired their own “senses”: they know where they... » read more

Planning EDA’s Next Steps

Anirudh Devgan, Cadence's new CEO, and the recipient of the Phil Kaufman Award in December, sat down with Semiconductor Engineering to talk about what's next in EDA, the underlying technology and business challenges and changes, and new markets that are unfolding for floor-planning, verification, CFD, and advanced packaging. SE: Where does EDA need to improve? Devgan: We have made it much... » read more

Siemens EDA’s Full-Flow Portfolio Helps Engineers Achieve Optimum IC Design Verification Efficiency
By Siemens EDA - 24 Mar, 2022 - Comments: 0

A quick overview of the front-end flow using the S-Edit schematic capture environment will be covered in this white paper, followed by a more detailed description and steps for using the Analog FastSPICE (AFS) platform simulator to go through the verification of a basic amplifier design. Greater efficiency in analog design verification can now be achieved using our enhanced inter-tool commun... » read more

The resurrection of tellurium as an elemental two-dimensional semiconductor
By Technical Paper Link - 23 Mar, 2022 - Comments: 0

Abstract "The graphene boom has triggered a widespread search for novel elemental van der Waals materials thanks to their simplicity for theoretical modeling and easy access for material growth. Group VI element tellurium is an unintentionally p-type doped narrow bandgap semiconductor featuring a one-dimensional chiral atomic structure which holds great promise for next-generation electronic, ... » read more

Rotating neurons for all-analog implementation of cyclic reservoir computing
By Technical Paper Link - 23 Mar, 2022 - Comments: 0

Abstract "Hardware implementation in resource-efficient reservoir computing is of great interest for neuromorphic engineering. Recently, various devices have been explored to implement hardware-based reservoirs. However, most studies were mainly focused on the reservoir layer, whereas an end-to-end reservoir architecture has yet to be developed. Here, we propose a versatile method for implemen... » read more

Using Periodic Calibration Of Antennas to Ensure the Ongoing Performance Of OTA Systems
By Keysight - 23 Mar, 2022 - Comments: 0

Seen or unseen, antennas are essential to virtually every aspect of our connected world. In any over-the-air application—communication, navigation, radar, and so on—signal quality is heavily dependent on the performance of the transmitting and receiving antennas. In addition, when testing any of today’s electronic devices for electromagnetic interference (EMI) and electromagnetic compatib... » read more
