Managing IP, Chiplets, and Design Data

Managing IP, Chiplets, and Design Data

Managing IP min

Design re-use has enabled IC design teams to create billion-transistor designs where hundreds of IP blocks are pre-built from internal or external sources. Keeping track of where each of these IP blocks came from, what their version status is, managing IP, or even discerning their license status can be a full-time job if tracked… Read More

The Path to Chiplet Architecture

If you have anything to do with the semiconductor industry, you already know that one of the hottest areas for both manufacturing and EDA are systems designed with advanced packaging, basically putting more than one die (aka chiplets) in the same package.

When 3D packaging was first introduced, there were not really any effective… Read More

The 15th TSMC Open Innovation Platform® (OIP) was held last week. In preparation we did a podcast with one of the original members of the TSMC OIP team Dan Kochpatcharin. Dan and I talked about the early days before OIP when we did reference flows together. Around 20 years ago I did a career pivot and focused on Strategic Foundry Relationships.… Read More

Intel Ushers a New Era of Advanced Packaging with Glass Substrates


Intel recently issued a press announcement that has significant implications for the future of semiconductors.  The release announces Intel’s new glass substrate technology. The headline states: Glass substrates help overcome limitations of organic materials by enabling an order of magnitude improvement in design rulesRead More


Chiplets and IP and the Trust Problem

Chiplets and IP and the Trust Problem
by Bernard Murphy on 09-12-2023 at 6:00 am

Trust min

Perforce recently hosted a webinar on “IP Lifecycle Management for Chiplet-Based SoCs”, presented by Simon Butler, the GM for the Methodics IPLM BU. The central theme was trust, for IPs as much as chiplets. How can an IP/chiplet consumer trust that what they receive has not been compromised somewhere in the value chain from initial… Read More

IF 2018 2027no$

We have shown in the “Design IP Report” 2022 that the market share of the wired Interface IP category is a growing part of the total IP, and that this trend is confirmed year after year. The interface IP category has moved from 18% share in 2017 to 25% in 2022.

During the 2010-decade, smartphone was the strong driver for the IP industry,… Read More
