ASML High-NA EUV is Not Ready for High-Volume Production
Contrary to the popular press, ASML High-NA EUV is not ready for logic production yet—and it may never be, at least not in the form originally envisioned. If you remember how long it took conventional EUV to become production-worthy—arguably 5–10 years—this should not come as a surprise. More importantly, this is no longer just… Read More
What Winemakers and Chip Designers Have in Common
Consider this a standout presentation at the Silicon Catalyst Spring Portfolio Update Meeting held yesterday at the Computer History Museum. Mahesh Tirupattur, CEO of Analog Bits, is a modern-day, multidimensional semiconductor hero and one of my trusted few. Analog Bits is a premier member of the semiconductor ecosystem,… Read More
Bronco AI Webinar: Full-Chip SoC Debug in 15 Minutes
A single bug on a full-chip SoC can pull engineers off roadmap work for days or even weeks. It involves massive waveforms, thousands of files of RTL and UVM, and dense specs that aren’t always perfect. Finding these bugs have always been a matter of engineer-hours and how well knowledge diffuses through the organization.
