Is Your Voltage Drop Flow Obsolete?
By Marc Swinnen - 13 Nov, 2023 - Comments: 0

Voltage drop at advanced nodes is a deadly serious problem that has become unmanageable with the methodologies used by most chip designers today. This article will cover the reasons why power integrity has risen to a top-of-mind concern and why it has become almost impossible for today’s EDA tools to measure and fix it. We will then look at some radical methodology rethinking that is needed t... » read more

Damage Detection For Reliable Microelectronics
By Jens Michael Warmuth - 09 Nov, 2023 - Comments: 0

Over the past few years, the reliability and safety of electronic systems have become increasingly more important. Ongoing digitalization has made these systems an integral part of many items of daily use. This means that failures are becoming more and more critical as they can cause considerable disruption – even when they occur in consumer electronics. Today, electronics are also indispensa... » read more

Neural Network Model Quantization On Mobile
By Roberto Lopez Mendez - 09 Nov, 2023 - Comments: 0

The general definition of quantization states that it is the process of mapping continuous infinite values to a smaller set of discrete finite values. In this blog, we will talk about quantization in the context of neural network (NN) models, as the process of reducing the precision of the weights, biases, and activations. Moving from floating-point representations to low-precision fixed intege... » read more

Reduce Data Center Over-Provisioning And Stranded Capacity For Sustainability
By Hassan Moezzi - 09 Nov, 2023 - Comments: 0

In the ever-evolving landscape of data centers, the issue of stranded capacity has become a significant concern for operators. Stranded capacity refers to the underutilization of resources. It is best referred to as the elephant in the data center due to the enormity of its impact. The losses are even more significant for the enterprise data center categories at above 40%. This outcome n... » read more

Let’s take a closer look at this important... » read more

RTL Optimization Best Practices Help To Achieve Power Goals And Identify Reliability Issues Earlier
By Qazi Faheem Ahmed - 09 Nov, 2023 - Comments: 0

Designers face enormous challenges for low-power designs. Whether it is IoT at the edge, AI in the datacenter, robotics or ADAS, the demand for increased functionality and higher performance in SoCs is rapidly stretching power budgets to their breaking point. Power must be considered at every stage of chip design. Waiting to address power until late in the design cycle – post-netlist or durin... » read more

Can Software Testing Deliver ROI?
By Mike Wager - 09 Nov, 2023 - Comments: 0

Innovation happens at a lightning pace, where software applications must follow suit or risk obsolescence. Consequently, quality assurance (QA) teams face a constant battle to ensure functionality, quality, and speed of release for their digital products. Software testing is critical to deliver in the face of this ever-increasing pressure. However, it is often seen as a burden, a cost center th... » read more
