2023: A Good Year For Semiconductors
By Brian Bailey - 21 Dec, 2023 - Comments: 0

Looking back, 2023 has had more than its fair share of surprises, but who were the winners and losers? The good news is that by the end of the year, almost everyone was happy. That is not how we exited 2022, where there was overcapacity, inventories had built up in many parts of the industry, and few sectors — apart from data centers — were seeing much growth. The supposed new leaders we... » read more

Siemens' Huw Geddes finds that the flexibility offered by the RISC-V ISA can introduce further verification and validation requirements to ensure that the combination of extensions and customization not just works but does not break anything else while delivering expected performance, plus looks at how processor trace can help. Cadence's Gustavo Araujo explains the various optimizations in t... » read more

Using Real Workloads To Assess Thermal Impacts
By Ann Mutschler - 14 Dec, 2023 - Comments: 0

Thermal analysis is being driven much further left in the design, fueled by demand for increased transistor density and more features on a chip or in a package, as well as the unique ways the various components may be exercised or stressed. However, getting a clear picture of the thermal activity in advanced-node chips and packages is extremely complex, and it can vary significantly by use c... » read more
