Addressing Silicon Lifecycle Scaling Demands
By Marc Hutner - 10 Jul, 2025 - Comments: 0

In today’s competitive business landscape, navigating complexity can be a decisive advantage, but it also presents significant challenges. Three crucial trends driving the rise of complexity are technology scaling, design scaling and system scaling. Traditionally, Design for Test (DFT) solutions have focused on the die level; however, these challenges present opportunities at the package and ... » read more

Distributing Intelligence Inside Multi-Die Assemblies
By Ed Sperling - 26 Jun, 2025 - Comments: 0

The shift from SoCs to multi-die assemblies requires more and smarter controllers to be distributed throughout a package in order to ensure optimal performance, signal integrity, and no downtime. In planar SoCs, many of these kinds of functions are often managed by a single CPU or MCU. But as logic increasingly is decomposed into chiplets, connected to each other and memories by TSVs, hybrid... » read more

EDA’s Top Execs Map Out An AI-Driven Future

Artificial intelligence is permeating the entire semiconductor ecosystem, forcing fundamental changes in AI chips, the design tools used to create them, and the methodologies used to ensure they will work reliably. This is a global race that will redefine nearly every domain over the next decade. In presentations and interviews over the past several months, top EDA executives converged on th... » read more

Simplify Simulation With Reduced-Order Modeling
By Jennifer Procario - 12 Jun, 2025 - Comments: 0

One of the biggest challenges in engineering and design is striking a balance between accuracy and speed. Development teams strive for precision but must often accelerate their simulation and computational workflows to meet production demands. Although physics-based, high-fidelity simulations are highly accurate, they are computationally expensive in terms of time and resources due to their com... » read more

From Tool Agents To Flow Agents
By Brian Bailey - 30 Apr, 2025 - Comments: 0

Experts At The Table: AI is starting to impact several parts of the EDA design and verification flows, but so far these improvements are isolated to single tool or small flows provided by a single company. What is required is a digital twin of the development process itself on which AI can operate. Semiconductor Engineering sat down with a panel of experts to discuss these issues and others, in... » read more

New Ways To Improve EDA Productivity
By Ann Mutschler - 24 Apr, 2025 - Comments: 0

EDA vendors are taking aim at new ways to improve the productivity of design and verification engineers, who are struggling to keep pace with exponential increases in chip complexity in tight time-to-market windows and with constrained engineering talent pipelines. In the past, progress often was as straightforward as improving algorithms or parallelizing computations in a linear flow. But w... » read more

Need For Speed Drives Targeted Testing
By Gregory Haley - 23 Apr, 2025 - Comments: 0

As packaging complexity increases and nodes shrink, defect detection becomes significantly more difficult. Engineers must contend with subtle variations introduced during fabrication and assembly without sacrificing throughput. New material stacks degrade signal-to-noise ratios, which makes metrology more difficult. At the same time, inspection systems face a more nuanced challenge — how t... » read more

AI Agents Need Goals
By Brian Bailey - 16 Apr, 2025 - Comments: 0

Experts At The Table: Definitions and goals matter when it comes to using AI effectively, and it has to be tightly reined in to be effective. Semiconductor Engineering sat down with a panel of experts to discuss these issues and others, including Johannes Stahl, senior director of product line management for the Systems Design Group at Synopsys; Michael Young, director of product marketing for ... » read more

Discovering Digital Twins: A Complete Guide
By Ansys - 09 Apr, 2025 - Comments: 0

As artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) continue to revolutionize industries, their integration with simulation is amplifying the capabilities of digital twins. AI/ML, simulation, and reduced-order modeling (ROM) technologies combine to create hybrid digital twins—virtual replicas that blend data-driven insights with the accuracy of physics-based models. This powerful approa... » read more
