TCAD Simulation Challenges For Gate-All-Around Transistors
By Victor Moroz - 17 Dec, 2024 - Comments: 0

By Victor Moroz and Shela Aboud The transition from finFET technology to Gate-All-Around (GAA) technology helps to reduce transistor variability and resume channel length scaling. It also brings several new challenges in terms of transistor design that need to be addressed. One of the challenges is handling the thin Si layers that come with GAA technology, where Si channel thickness scale... » read more

Automotive Design: How AI Is Transforming The Art Of Simulation
By Ansys - 11 Dec, 2024 - Comments: 0

The automotive sector is about to experience a major wave of innovation as artificial intelligence (AI) is applied to design simulation, according to experts. The technology makes it possible to reduce the time needed to run the analyses for crash-test simulations — one of the most data-heavy exercises in automotive design — from several days to minutes.

Simulating Multiple DSPs As Multiple x86 Processes
By Nayan Gaywala - 14 Nov, 2024 - Comments: 0

An increasing number of embedded designs are multi-core systems. At the pre-silicon stage, customers use a simulation platform for architectural exploration and software development. Architects want to quantify the impact of the number of cores, local memory size, system memory latency, and interconnect bandwidth. Software teams wish to have a practical development platform that is not excrucia... » read more

Accelerating Verification Of Computational Storage Designs Using Avery NVMe Verification IP
By Siemens EDA - 14 Nov, 2024 - Comments: 0

Computational storage is an emerging paradigm that integrates processing capabilities directly within storage devices. This paper outlines how this approach addresses the limitations of traditional NVM Express (NVMe) SSDs and the performance characteristics of the newly introduced compute and subsystem local memory (SLM) namespaces. The paper also focuses on the verification framework provided ... » read more

How to Accelerate Multiphysics Simulation Software with Turnkey Hardware Systems
By Ansys - 13 Nov, 2024 - Comments: 0

Complicated problems take longer to solve. In engineering, it’s a given that simulation drastically accelerates the development cycle, enabling engineers to digitally test ideas and optimize products exponentially faster than physical testing. However, today’s complex products and systems require simulation of many different physics—the thermal, structural, and electromagnetic forces in a... » read more

Managing Reflections With Terminations
By John Golding - 04 Nov, 2024 - Comments: 0

Have you heard recommendations to use a particular termination in particular situations for good signal integrity? Have you ever wondered how to incorporate terminations in your design? While there are typical use cases for various terminations, sometimes engineers use termination techniques based on a recommendation or assumption that may not work, or at least may not be optimal, for their par... » read more

Four Real-World Applications for Electromagnetic Simulation
By Keysight - 30 Oct, 2024 - Comments: 0

With the complexity of integrated circuit (IC) components increasing, electromagnetic (EM) circuit simulation is now critical for accurate and efficient design. The EM effects on a circuit can drastically alter voltage levels and damage semiconductor devices. With EM simulation, designers can account for EM effects on their circuit to avoid costly problems before they happen. EM simulation e... » read more

Simulation Replay Tackles Key Verification Challenges
By Robert Ruiz - 12 Sep, 2024 - Comments: 0

Simulation lies at the heart of both verification and pre-silicon validation for every semiconductor development project. Finding functional or power problems in the bringup lab is much too late, leading to very expensive chip turns. Thorough simulation before tapeout, coupled with comprehensive coverage metrics, is the only way to avoid surprises in silicon. However, the enormous size and comp... » read more

Challenges and Best Practices for TCO Models of Technical Computing Resources for Engineering Modeling and Simulation Workflows
By Ansys - 11 Sep, 2024 - Comments: 0

Many organizations focus heavily on the system’s initial capital cost when developing criteria and reviewing proposals for new procurements. While this is crucial for evaluating ROI, research shows that the initial purchase cost accounts for only half of the total expenses over the system’s useful life. This data point highlights the importance of understanding the total cost of ownership (... » read more
