Shifting Left Using Model-Based Engineering
By Karen Heyman - 25 Jan, 2024 - Comments: 0

As heterogenous integration increases design complexity and forces engineers out of long-standing silos, model-based systems engineering (MBSE) is becoming essential for improving quality and reducing failures in the field. While it may seem like a new buzzword, MBSE's principles date back to the 1990s. In essence, it's a process of building models that enable early decisions, which pays off... » read more

Chip Industry Silos Are Crimping Advances
By Brian Bailey - 11 Jan, 2024 - Comments: 0

Change is never easy, but it is more difficult when it involves organizational restructuring. The pace of such restructuring has been increasing over the past decade, and often it is more difficult to incorporate than technological advancements. This is due to the siloed nature of the semiconductor industry, both within the industry itself, and its relationship to surrounding industries. Inc... » read more

Glitch Power Issues Grow At Advanced Nodes
By Ann Mutschler - 11 Jan, 2024 - Comments: 0

An estimated 20% to 40% of total power is being wasted due to glitch in some of the most advanced and complex chip designs, and at this point there is no single best approach for how and when to address it, and mixed information about how effective those solutions can be. Glitch power is not a new phenomenon. DSP architects and design engineers are well-versed in the power wasted by long, sl... » read more

AI-Driven Macro Placement Boosts PPA
By Janet Attar - 11 Jan, 2024 - Comments: 0

In the era of EDA 4.0, artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are transforming what electronic design automation tools are capable of. For many of the challenges of physical IC design, AI can provide significant benefits to both the turnaround time and the quality of the design, as measured by performance, power, and area (PPA) metrics. One implementation step due for improve... » read more

Pressure Builds On Failure Analysis Labs
By Laura Peters - 09 Jan, 2024 - Comments: 0

Failure analysis labs are becoming more fab-like, offering higher accuracy in locating failures and accelerating time-to-market of new devices. These labs historically have been used for deconstructing devices that failed during field use, known as return material authorizations (RMAs), but their role is expanding. They now are becoming instrumental in achieving first silicon and ramping yie... » read more

Plugging Gaps In The IC Supply Chain
By Anne Meixner - 09 Jan, 2024 - Comments: 0

Multiple touch points in manufacturing and packaging are exposing gaps in the data used to track different components, making it difficult to identify the source of issues that can affect yield and reliability, and opening the door to counterfeit or sub-standard parts. This involves more than just assigning a simple identifying code to a chip. At different points in a device's lifecycle, new... » read more
