How 25G Ethernet, PCIe 5.0, and Multi-Protocol PHYs Enable Scalable Edge Intelligence

How 25G Ethernet, PCIe 5.0, and Multi-Protocol PHYs Enable Scalable Edge Intelligence
by Kalar Rajendiran on 02-03-2026 at 6:00 am

Ethernet Links Enabling In Vehicle Network and ADAS

Physical AI is changing how intelligent systems interact with the real world. These systems must sense, process, and respond to data in real time. Unlike cloud AI, Physical AI depends on fast local processing and reliable distributed communication. This shift creates a new challenge. Systems must move large volumes of sensor… Read More


Advances in ATPG from Synopsys

Advances in ATPG from Synopsys
by Daniel Payne on 02-02-2026 at 10:00 am

Synopsys TestMAX family

I first learned about ATPG – Automatic Test Program Generation in the 1980s at Silicon Compilers, then continued in the 90s at Viewlogic with the Sunrise tools, so it was illuminating to get an update from Synopsys on their ATPG technology by attending a webinar. Synopsys over the years has developed a family of test tools, shown … Read More

DAC 2026 Long Beach

The Design Automation Chips to Systems Conference is the preeminent international event for professionals involved in electronic design, system architecture, and EDA.  Formerly known simply as the Design Automation Conference or DAC has evolved over more than six decades into a forward-looking forum that spans the entire… Read More


Taming Advanced Node Clock Network Challenges: Jitter

Taming Advanced Node Clock Network Challenges: Jitter
by Mike Gianfagna on 01-30-2026 at 6:00 am

Taming Advanced Node Clock Network Challenges Jitter

Clock jitter rarely fails in obvious ways. In advanced-node designs, its impact is often indirect, emerging through subtle timing uncertainty, interaction with power delivery noise, and compounding effects across large clock networks. These behaviors can quietly erode margin and predictability, even when conventional… Read More

Synopsys AMD Agentic AI Honor

Synopsys and AMD were recently selected by the World Economic Forum for inclusion in the WEF’s MINDS (Meaningful, Intelligent, Novel, Deployable Solutions) AI program, recognizing their leadership and real-world impact in applying generative and agentic AI to semiconductor design and engineering. This distinction places… Read More


2025 Retrospective. Innovation in Verification

2025 Retrospective. Innovation in Verification
by Bernard Murphy on 01-29-2026 at 6:00 am

Innovation New

As usual in January we start with a look back at the papers we reviewed last year. Paul Cunningham (GM, Verification at Cadence), Raúl Camposano (Silicon Catalyst, entrepreneur, former Synopsys CTO and lecturer at Stanford, EE292A) and I continue our series on research ideas. As always, feedback welcome.

Looking back at 2025

2026 Outlook with Shelly Henry of MooresLabAI

2026 Outlook with Shelly Henry of MooresLabAI
by Daniel Nenni on 01-28-2026 at 8:00 am

Shelly Henry MooresLabAI
Tell us a little bit about yourself and your company.

I’m Shelly Henry, CEO and co-founder of MooresLabAI. After two decades of building chips for Xbox, HoloLens, and Azure, I reached a point where I knew the industry needed a reset. So I teamed up with fellow engineers, Shashank Chaurasia and Sirish Munipalli to create MooresLabAI—a… Read More


Synopsys’ Secure Storage Solution for OTP IP

Synopsys Secure Storage Solution for OTP IP

For decades, One-Time Programmable (OTP) memory has been viewed as a foundational element of hardware security. Because OTP can be written only once and cannot be modified afterward, it has traditionally been trusted to store cryptographic keys, secure boot code, device identity, and configuration data. Permanence was often… Read More


Hierarchical Device Planning as an Enabler of System Technology Co-Optimization

Hierarchical Device Planning as an Enabler of System Technology Co-Optimization
by Kalar Rajendiran on 01-27-2026 at 6:00 am

Connectivity in a Hierarchical IC Package Floorplan

AI, hyperscale data centers, and data-intensive workloads are driving unprecedented demands for performance, bandwidth, and energy efficiency. As the economic returns of traditional transistor scaling diminish, advanced IC packaging and heterogeneous integration have become the primary levers for system-level scaling.… Read More


Taming Advanced Node Clock Network Challenges: Duty Cycle

Taming Advanced Node Clock Network Challenges: Duty Cycle
by Mike Gianfagna on 01-23-2026 at 6:00 am

Taming Advanced Node Clock Network Challenges – Duty Cycle Distortion

As process nodes advance, circuit behavior becomes progressively more challenging to analyze and predict. Few systems reflect this challenge more clearly than the clock network. These large, complex networks no longer behave as ideal digital signals. Instead, they operate as distributed electrical systems shaped by non-linear… Read More
