RTL coding is a critical step in the development of semiconductors, but many would argue it is not the most difficult. Things become a lot more complex as you get closer to implementation, and as the system context becomes larger than can be comprehended by text alone. In both cases, layout, timing, power, and many other factors come into play, but none is as easily represented by text, and the... » read more

Startup Funding: June 2023


June saw several large funding rounds, with seven of at least $100 million. Over half a billion dollars alone went to a Chinese company manufacturing silicon carbide (SiC) power semiconductors.
