Chiplet IP Standards Are Just The Beginning


Experts at the Table: Semiconductor Engineering sat down to talk about chiplet standards, interoperability, and the need for highly customized AI chiplets, with Frank Schirrmeister, vice president solutions and business development at Arteris; Mayank Bhatnagar, product marketing director in the Silicon Solutions Group at Cadence; Paul Karazuba, vice president of marketing at Expedera; Stephen S... » read more

Blog Review: Mar. 6


Synopsys' Gandharv Bhatara notes that successfully deploying high-NA EUV will rely on computational lithography to provide accurate modeling of aberrations, compact 3D mask modeling, and expand inverse lithography to full-chip processing. Cadence's John Park argues for using a systematic and automated system for co-design and co-analysis of multi-die packages to reduce the margin for human e... » read more

Ensure Zero Functional CDC Signoff Defects With VC SpyGlass Integrated Solution


This whitepaper will explain how designers can ensure zero defects seamlessly using Synopsys VC SpyGlass as a single cockpit for not just structural CDC analysis but also for complete functional analysis. We will also cover how designers can utilize a single dashboard for tracking the functional CDC signoff progress over the course of the project. Click here to read more. » read more

Optimizing EDA Cloud Hardware And Workloads


Optimizing EDA hardware for the cloud can shorten the time required for large and complex simulations, but not all workloads will benefit equally, and much more can be done to improve those that can. Tens of thousands of GPUs and specialized accelerators, all working in parallel, add significant and elastic compute horsepower for complex designs. That allows design teams to explore various a... » read more

Chip Industry Week In Review


By Adam Kovac, Karen Heyman, and Liz Allan. India approved the construction of two fabs and a packaging house, for a total investment of about $15.2 billion, according to multiple sources. One fab will be jointly owned by Tata and Taiwan's Powerchip. The second fab will be a joint investment between CG Power, Japan's Renesas Electronics, and Thailand's Stars Microelectronics. Tata will run t... » read more

2.5D Integration: Big Chip Or Small PCB?


Defining whether a 2.5D device is a printed circuit board shrunk down to fit into a package, or is a chip that extends beyond the limits of a single die, may seem like hair-splitting semantics, but it can have significant consequences for the overall success of a design. Planar chips always have been limited by size of the reticle, which is about 858mm2. Beyond that, yield issues make the si... » read more

Commercial Chiplet Ecosystem May Be A Decade Away


Experts at the Table: Semiconductor Engineering sat down to talk about the challenges of establishing a commercial chiplet ecosystem with Frank Schirrmeister, vice president solutions and business development at Arteris; Mayank Bhatnagar, product marketing director in the Silicon Solutions Group at Cadence; Paul Karazuba, vice president of marketing at Expedera; Stephen Slater, EDA product mana... » read more

Navigating IoT Security


By Dana Neustadter (Synopsys), Ruud Derwig (Synopsys), and Martin Rösner (G+D) IoT expansion requires secure and efficient connectivity between machines. Integrated SIM technology and remote SIM provisioning can make this possible. Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) cards have been around for a long time, with Giesecke+Devrient (G+D) developing and delivering the first commercial SIM car... » read more

Blog Review: Feb. 28


Synopsys' Emilie Viasnoff suggests that employing virtual sensors when developing an autonomous driving system helps aid in sensor design and minimizes the hazards associated with extensive real-world driving. Cadence's Anthony Ducimo introduces a methodology for embedded BootROM verification that relies only on standard RTL verification toolchains to reveal bugs, identify unused sections of... » read more

Advanced Design Planning In IC Compiler II


By Rajiv Dave, CAE Manager, Synopsys. Design exploration and planning is becoming an increasingly critical step of the design creation process as growing constraints and requirements are placed upon it. IC Compiler II has been architected from the ground up with the express focus to address the three key challenges of design planning: Capacity to handle the largest design optimally yet ... » read more
