Unleash the Power: NVIDIA GPUs, Ansys Simulation

Unleash the Power: NVIDIA GPUs, Ansys Simulation
by Daniel Nenni on 03-19-2024 at 10:00 am

Electromagnatic PerceiveEM

In the realm of engineering simulations, the demand for faster, more accurate solutions to complex multiphysics challenges is ever-growing.

Simulation is a vital tool for engineers to design, test, and optimize complex systems and products. It helps engineers reduce costs, improve quality, and accelerate innovation. However,… Read More


Synopsys Enhances PPA with Backside Routing

Synopsys Enhances PPA with Backside Routing
by Mike Gianfagna on 03-19-2024 at 6:00 am

Comparison of frontside and backside PDNs (Source IMEC)

Complexity and density conspire to make power delivery very difficult for advanced SoCs. Signal integrity, power integrity, reliability and heat can seem to present unsolvable problems when it comes to efficient power management. There is just not enough room to get it all done with the routing layers available on the top side… Read More


Afraid of mesh-based clock topologies? You should be

Afraid of mesh-based clock topologies? You should be
by Daniel Payne on 03-18-2024 at 10:00 am

mesh-based clock topology

Digital logic chips synchronize all logic operations by using a clock signal connected to flip-flops or latches, and the clock is distributed across the entire chip. The ultimate goal is to have a clock signal that arrives at the exact same moment in time at all clocked elements. If the clock arrives too early or too late from the PLL… Read More


Checking and Fixing Antenna Effects in IC Layouts

Checking and Fixing Antenna Effects in IC Layouts
by Daniel Payne on 03-14-2024 at 10:00 am

Planar CMOS cross-section – antenna DRC

IC layouts go through extensive design rule checking to ensure correctness, before being accepted for fabrication at a foundry or IDM. There’s something called the antenna effect that happens during chip manufacturing where plasma-induced damage (PID) can lower the reliability of MOSFET devices. Layout designers run Design… Read More


Automotive Electronics Trends are Shaping System Design Constraints

Automotive Electronics Trends are Shaping System Design Constraints
by Bernard Murphy on 03-13-2024 at 6:00 am

Electronics in car

Something is brewing in automotive electronics. Within a one-month window most of the product announcements and pitches to which I am being invited are on automotive topics. Automotive markets have long been one of the primary targets for suppliers to system designers, but this level of alignment in announcements seems more … Read More

Siemens Promotes Digital Threads for Electronic Systems Design

Siemens Promotes Digital Threads for Electronic Systems Design
by Bernard Murphy on 03-06-2024 at 6:00 am

Digital threads min

Many years ago, I remember discussions around islands of automation/silos. Within the scope of any given silo there is plenty of automation to handle tasks relevant to that phase. But managing the full lifecycle from concept through manufacturing to field support must cross between silos, and those transitions are not as clean… Read More
