Synopsys' Gandharv Bhatara notes that successfully deploying high-NA EUV will rely on computational lithography to provide accurate modeling of aberrations, compact 3D mask modeling, and expand inverse lithography to full-chip processing. Cadence's John Park argues for using a systematic and automated system for co-design and co-analysis of multi-die packages to reduce the margin for human e... » read more

Optimizing EDA Cloud Hardware And Workloads
By Aharon Etengoff - 04 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 0

Optimizing EDA hardware for the cloud can shorten the time required for large and complex simulations, but not all workloads will benefit equally, and much more can be done to improve those that can. Tens of thousands of GPUs and specialized accelerators, all working in parallel, add significant and elastic compute horsepower for complex designs. That allows design teams to explore various a... » read more

Design Tool Think Tank Required
By Brian Bailey - 29 Feb, 2024 - Comments: 1

When I was in the EDA industry as a technologist, there were three main parts to my role. The first was to tell customers about new technologies being developed and tool extensions that would be appearing in the next release. These were features they might find beneficial both in the projects they were undertaking today, and even more so, would apply to future projects. Second, I would try and ... » read more

2.5D Integration: Big Chip Or Small PCB?
By Brian Bailey - 29 Feb, 2024 - Comments: 1

Defining whether a 2.5D device is a printed circuit board shrunk down to fit into a package, or is a chip that extends beyond the limits of a single die, may seem like hair-splitting semantics, but it can have significant consequences for the overall success of a design. Planar chips always have been limited by size of the reticle, which is about 858mm2. Beyond that, yield issues make the si... » read more
