Webinar: RF design success hinges on enhanced models and accurate simulation

Webinar: RF design success hinges on enhanced models and accurate simulation
by Don Dingee on 02-19-2025 at 10:00 am

Modelithics 3D Library for RFPro increases the chances for RF design success

Traditional RF board design strategies based on circuit simulation worked at lower frequencies and relatively large spacing between components. Higher frequencies and densification dominate RF designs now, where corresponding wider bandwidths and tighter layouts with closely spaced components produce more complex 3D… Read More

Embracing the Chiplet Journey: The Shift to Chiplet-Based Architectures

Embracing the Chiplet Journey: The Shift to Chiplet-Based Architectures
by Kalar Rajendiran on 02-12-2025 at 6:00 am

Chiplets A New Abstraction Layer

The semiconductor industry is facing a paradigm shift. Traditional scaling, once driven by Moore’s Law, is slowing down. For years, moving to smaller process nodes led to lower transistor costs and better performance. However, scaling from node to node now offers fewer benefits as wafer costs rise much more than the historical… Read More

Getting Faster DRC Results with a New Approach

Getting Faster DRC Results with a New Approach
by Daniel Payne on 02-04-2025 at 10:00 am

Run time improvements using Calibre nmDRC Recon

As IC designs become increasingly complex, traditional Design Rule Checking (DRC) methods are struggling to keep up. The old “construct by correction” approach, initially developed for simpler, custom layouts, is creating substantial runtime and resource bottlenecks. Traditional DRC relies on an iterative, sequential… Read More
