Engineering documentation has always been difficult to produce, maintain, and scale. But with the rise of generative AI, many organizations are asking a reasonable question: can a general-purpose large language model (LLM) like Claude automate the work? At first glance, the answer appears to be yes.
Modern LLMs can generate… Read More
Let’s face it, powerful, highly trained AI is making it easier to find security flaws in many systems. When the attack surface becomes the underlying hardware, the risks grow exponentially. Unlike software, hardware can’t easily be “patched”. Early, advanced security verification is the way to mitigate these risks, but doing… Read More
The semiconductor industry is entering a transformative new phase, driven by the convergence of artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and increasingly complex chip architectures. That message took center stage during the keynote talks at the Siemens EDA User2User 2026 North America conference. Executives from Siemens,… Read More
Quick recap: verification is checking that your implementation of a design matches the in-house design/test specification. In contrast, validation means checking that the implementation matches design intent as defined by a customer specification, use cases, etc. Let’s focus on verification; for simplicity I’ll use “design… Read More
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
I was born in the UK (then still a part of Europe), so always eager to see them succeed. But I must admit that past behavior has reinforced the view that the EU’s only active “contribution” to progress is regulation. However this seems to be changing in multiple interesting ways. On a grand scale, the Nordic economic model is taking … Read More
The semiconductor industry has achieved extraordinary mastery in silicon signoff. Modern EDA environments can now optimize timing closure, physical verification, IR/EM behavior, routing density, thermal interaction, and increasingly even design-space exploration through AI-assisted implementation flows. Crossing… Read More
At CES 2026, Samsung called it a “companion.” Lenovo called it “ambient intelligence.” OpenAI spent $6.4 billion on a screenless device designed to be a continuous presence in your pocket. Meta acquired Limitless, the AI pendant that had been tracking everything its wearers said and heard. Every major consumer electronics company… Read More
Nagesh has built a career spanning multiple aspects of system design and development at companies including Hewlett-Packard, Cadence, Xilinx, and Lattice Semiconductor.
He is also a serial entrepreneur. Nagesh founded Taray, Inc., which developed memory interface generators for Xilinx designs and was later acquired by … Read More
With the launch of its new P570 Gen 3 processor family, SiFive is making a broader statement about the future of edge computing and the growing role of RISC-V in mainstream application processors. Rather than simply unveiling another CPU core, the company is positioning the P570 as a balanced-performance processor built specifically… Read More
