Bronco AI builds AI agents for chip design and verification. Our goal is to get teams from spec to RTL-freeze as fast as possible by surfacing the nastiest bugs sooner and fixing them faster.
Our agents work the way strong engineers do: they read the spec, form hypotheses, run experiments, and chase a problem until it is root-caused,… Read More
Automated debugging – starting from an unexpected behavior to find a bug root-cause or a small set of possible root-causes – is a hot topic now that agentic systems are playing a bigger role in automation. Unsurprising since debug remains the most time and resource-consuming aspect of verification, in turn the most time/resource-consuming… Read More
Si2 is conducting quite a few sessions at DAC this year covering everything from power model standards to agentic AI. There is one session that is a bit different, focusing on LLM benchmarking. Since AI is popping up everywhere, the ability to accurately assess and measure the quality of new models becomes more important. That’s… Read More
Dan Fritchman is an electrical engineer and semiconductor-software entrepreneur. He is the founder and CEO of Generation Alpha Transistor, a San Francisco startup developing AI-based tools for integrated-circuit design.
He earned a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences from UC Berkeley in 2023. His dissertation,… Read More
When considering best-fit applications for RISC-V, the appeal of extending the instruction set and competitive pricing for storage and edge applications has been pretty clear. But I have always struggled to understand the appeal in head-on competition with Arm in premium applications such as servers and infrastructure systems.… Read More
As architects push toward advanced nodes and increasingly demanding workloads, modern silicon design has entered an era of unprecedented complexity. A single design respin can cost millions of dollars and delay market entry. Against this backdrop, designs must be balanced for performance, bandwidth, power efficiency, security… Read More
AI-powered platform identified four critical SoC bugs and helped prevent up to two weeks of potential development delays
Semiconductor verification is increasingly constrained not by simulation capacity, but by the engineering effort required to understand why a simulation failed. Modern ASIC and system-on-chip designs… Read More
I have had the pleasure of working with Defacto Technologies for the past 10 years on SemiWiki and I am always impressed with their professionalism and ability to quickly address the challenges of complex SoC design.
From my perspective, Defacto’s technology is designed to improve productivity and design quality by enabling … Read More
Keysight Technologies returns to 2026 DAC, The Chips to Systems Conference this year as a Silver Sponsor and an “I LOVE DAC” sponsor, bringing its Design Engineering Software portfolio to Booth #927 at DAC 2026, which runs July 26-29 in Long Beach, Calif. The Keysight team will be on-site Monday through Wednesday … Read More
Agentrys is pioneering Agentic Design Automation (ADA), a new paradigm for semiconductor engineering. Electronic Design Automation (EDA) has transformed the industry by automating engineering algorithms. Today, frontier AI can automate many engineering tasks by understanding specifications, generating RTL and … Read More
