Chiplets continue to be a hot topic on SemiWiki, conferences, white papers, webinars and one of the most active chiplet enabling vendors we work with is Synopsys. Synopsys is the #1 EDA and #1 IP company so that makes complete sense.
As you may have read, I moderated a panel on Chiplets at the last SNUG which we continue to write about.

S2C has been shipping FPGA prototyping platforms for SoC verification for almost two decades, and many of its customers are developing SoCs and silicon IP for Bluetooth applications. Prototyping Bluetooth designs before silicon has yielded improved design efficiencies through more comprehensive system validation, and… Read More
Last week TSMC announced the opening of an advanced backend fab for the expansion of the TSMC 3DFabric System Integration Technology. It’s a significant announcement as the chip packaging arms race with Intel and Samsung is heating up.
Fab 6 is TSMC’s first all-in-one advanced packaging and testing fab which is part of the… Read More
In the 3D-IC (Three-dimensional integrated circuit) chip design method, chiplets or wafers are stacked vertically on top of each other and are connected using Through Silicon Vias (TSVs) or hybrid bonding.
The 2.5D-IC design method places multiple chiplets alongside each other on a silicon interposer. Microbumps and interconnect… Read More

TSMC clarified CAPEX and revenue for 2023 last night at the Annual Shareholders Meeting. Last year TSMC guided up during this meeting but this year they guided down. CAPEX was guided down to the lower end of $36B-$32B. Revenue was guided down from low-single to mid-single digit so maybe down another percent or two. The TSMC Jan… Read More
Join this webinar and see UCIe in action! This webinar presents the SystemVerilog models of a Universal Chiplet Interconnect Express (UCIe) interface, including both the analog circuits in the electrical layer and digital FSMs in the logical layer. The whole physical layer (PHY) model can be efficiently simulated in SystemVerilog,… Read More
The rapid advancement of UWB (Ultra-Wideband) wireless technology has garnered significant attention and interest, thanks to its adoption by leading smartphone brands and its versatile range of applications. Within the automotive industry, UWB has already emerged as the preferred choice for Digital Keys in the premium… Read More
In 2020 TSMC established its Net Zero Project with a goal of net zero emissions by 2050. I remember wondering how could this possibly be done before 2050 or at all for that matter. After working with TSMC for 20+ years I have learned never to bet against them on any topic and green manufacturing is one of them, absolutely.
TSMC presented… Read More
Always-sensing cameras are a relatively new method for users to interact with their smartphones, home appliances, and other consumer devices. Like always-listening audio-based Siri and Alexa, always-sensing cameras enable a seamless, more natural user experience. However, always-sensing camera subsystems require specialized… Read More
