Digital Twins Target IC Tool And Fab Efficiency
By Laura Peters - 21 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 0

Digital twins have emerged as the hot "new" semiconductor manufacturing technology, enabling fabs to create a virtual representation of a physical system on which to experiment and optimize what's going on inside the real fab. While digital twin technology has been in use for some time in other industries, its use has been limited in semiconductor manufacturing. What's changing is the breadt... » read more

3D-IC Intensifies Demand For Multi-Physics Simulation
By Ann Mutschler - 20 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 0

The introduction of full 3D-ICs will require a simultaneous analysis of various physical effects under different workloads, a step-function change that will add complexity at every step of the design flow, expand and alter job responsibilities, and bring together the analog and digital design worlds in unprecedented ways. 3D-ICs will be the highest-performance advanced packaging option, in s... » read more

Blog Review: March 20
By Jesse Allen - 20 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 0

Synopsys' Kiran Vittal delves into AI chips, including the expansion of chip design beyond traditional semiconductor companies, adoption of RISC-V, and the use of formal equivalence checking to verify complex AI datapaths. Siemens' Patrick McGoff points to a survey that suggests projects deploying design for manufacturing within a PCB design flow are more likely to be completed on-time, on-q... » read more

Optimizing Energy At The System Level
By Brian Bailey - 18 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 0

Power is a ubiquitous concern, and it is impossible to optimize a system's energy consumption without considering the system as a whole. Tremendous strides have been made in the optimization of a hardware implementation, but that is no longer enough. The complete system must be optimized. There are far reaching implications to this, some of which are driving the path toward domain-specific c... » read more

Predicting Warpage in Different Types of IC Stacks At Early Stage Of Package Design
By Technical Paper Link - 15 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 0

A new technical paper titled "Warpage Study by Employing an Advanced Simulation Methodology for Assessing Chip Package Interaction Effects" was published by researchers at Siemens EDA, D2S, and Univ. Grenoble Alpes, CEA, Leti. Abstract: "A physics-based multi-scale simulation methodology that analyses die stress variations generated by package fabrication is employed for warpage study. The ... » read more

The City In The Tower: 3D ICs Transform The Electronics System Landscape
By Keith Felton - 14 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 0

By Keith Felton and Todd Burkholder The time of 3D integrated circuits (3D ICs) is here, and they will revolutionize the semiconductor industry and effect a watershed in the nature of electronics products that can be designed and manufactured. Yet again—as with personal computers, the internet, and smart phones—our increasingly digital world will never be the same. 3D IC architectures... » read more

The Rising Price Of Power In Chips
By Ed Sperling - 14 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 0

Power is everything when it comes to processing and storing data, and much of it isn't good. Power-related issues, particularly heat, dominate chip and system designs today, and those issues are widening and multiplying. Transistor density has reached a point where these tiny digital switches are generating more heat than can be removed through traditional means. That may sound manageable e... » read more

Blog Review: Mar. 13
By Jesse Allen - 13 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 0

Cadence's Geeta Arora explains the Address Translation Service in PCIe 6.0, which allows an I/O device to perform its own virtual to physical address translations without relying on the host's CPU to reduce latency and improve overall system performance. Synopsys' John Swanson, Jon Ames, Priyank Shukla, and Varun Agrawal highlight the upcoming 1.6T iteration of the Ethernet standard and the ... » read more
