Bronco AI Webinar: Full-Chip SoC Debug in 15 Minutes

Bronco AI Webinar: Full-Chip SoC Debug in 15 Minutes
by Daniel Nenni on 08-13-2026 at 2:00 pm

Bronco AI Webinar SemiWiki

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.

ChipAgents Funding Round SemiWiki

In my 45 years experience in the semiconductor industry, 43 of that in EDA and IP, I have never seen such a meteoric rise of an EDA company. I do remember money being raised for EDA in the early days but never have I seen such a customer success in such a short amount of time.

I first met ChipAgents at DVCon Silicon Valley in 2025. It was an … Read More

Mach42 Delivers a Different Take on AI in the Design Flow at DAC 2026

I believe DAC 2026 will be remembered as the turning point for AI assisted design. There has been discussion about AI infusion in EDA for a while now. Most of it was about how AI can be added to traditional tools to make existing methodologies better. This year, that changed. There were several new companies that highlighted a fundamentally… Read More
