Picture AI webinar blog

Front-end SoC design has always been a balancing act between speed, accuracy, and the large amount of manual work required to get RTL, IPs, and collaterals to be aligned. In a recent webinar, Defacto CEO and founder Chouki Aktouf joined by product manager Valentin Boyer, walked through how the company is bringing AI directly into… Read More


Temperature Does Not Only Age Hardware — It Moves the System

Temperature Does Not Only Age Hardware — It Moves the System

Temp not age HW Moves ys semiAug2

Temperature is often treated as a reliability clock.

Increase the temperature, accelerate the failure mechanism, and estimate the equivalent field life.

That approach can be useful—but only when the dominant failure mechanism is known, its thermal activation behavior is understood, and the same mechanism remains active … Read More

ChipAgents Funding Round SemiWiki

In my 45 years experience in the semiconductor industry, 43 of that in EDA and IP, I have never seen such a meteoric rise of an EDA company. I do remember money being raised for EDA in the early days but never have I seen such a customer success in such a short amount of time.

I first met ChipAgents at DVCon Silicon Valley in 2025. It was an … Read More
