Semiconductors Up Over 20% in 2025 3

The world semiconductor market was $208 billion in third-quarter 2025, according to WSTS. This marks the first time the market has been above $200 billion. 3Q 2025 was up 15.8% from 2Q 2025, the highest quarter-to-quarter growth since 19.9% in 2Q 2009. 3Q 2025 was up 25.1% from 3Q 2024, the highest growth versus a year earlier since… Read More

square 3 (1)

The explosive growth of AI and accelerated computing is placing unprecedented demands on system-on-chip (SoC) design. Modern AI workloads require extremely high bandwidth, ultra-low latency, and energy-efficient data movement across increasingly heterogeneous architectures. As SoCs scale to incorporate clusters of… Read More

Modern chip design verification often encounters challenges when connecting peripherals, primarily due to drastic differences in operating speed or hardware limitations. Designs running on hardware emulators or FPGA prototyping platforms typically operate at clock frequencies of tens of megahertz, and in some cases even… Read More


An Insight into Building Quantum Computers

An Insight into Building Quantum Computers

Quantum processor courtesy IBM

Given my physics background I’m ashamed to admit I know very little about quantum computers (QC) though I’m now working to correct that defect. Like many of you I wanted to start with the basics: what are the components and systems in the physical implementation of a quantum “CPU” and how do they map to classical CPUs? I’m finding the… Read More

I Have Seen the Future with ChipAgents Autonomous Root Cause Analysis

I have seen a lot of EDA tool demos in my time. More than I want to admit. The perceived quality of the demo usually came down to a combination of the speed of the tool, quality of results and the ease of navigating through the graphical user interface. For the last item, how easy the interface was on the eyes, how clear were the relationships… Read More

AI driven car

I have written before about an inter-chiplet communication challenge to realizing the dream of multi-die designs built around open-market chiplets. Still a worthy dream but it’s going to take a journey to get there. Arm recently donated their Foundation Chiplet System Architecture (FCSA) to the Open Compute Project (OCP) as… Read More


Boosting SoC Design Productivity with IP-XACT

Boosting SoC Design Productivity with IP-XACT
by Daniel Payne on 11-17-2025 at 10:00 am

IP XACT min

IP-XACT, defined by IEEE 1685, is a standard that pulls together IP packaging, integration, and reuse. For anyone building modern SoCs (Systems on Chip), IP-XACT isn’t just another XML schema: it is a productivity multiplier and a risk-reduction tool that brings order to your electronic system design.

What is IP-XACT?

IP-XACT… Read More
