How machine learning helps improve PPA (power, performance, area) tradeoffs.
Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are emerging as powerful new ways to do old things more efficiently, which is the benchmark that any new and potentially disruptive technology must meet. In chip design, results are measured in many different ways, but common metrics are power (consumed), performance (provided), and area (required), collectively referred to as PPA. These measures can be applied at almost any level, from a single transistor to blocks containing millions of cells. If AI and ML can help push the dial on these figures of merit, they are delivering on their promise.
