RTH0 extraction

High-fidelity models incorporating real-world, cross-domain effects are essential for accurate RF system simulation. The surging popularity of gallium nitride (GaN) technology in 5G base stations, satellite communication, defense systems, and other applications raises the bar for transistor modeling. Keysight dives… Read More

Anirudh keynote at CadenceLive 2024

The great things about CEO keynotes, at least from larger companies, is that you not only learn about recent advances but you also get a sense of the underlying algorithm for growth. Particularly reinforced when followed by discussions with high profile partner CEOs on their directions and areas of common interest. I saw this recently… Read More


Will my High-Speed Serial Link Work?

Will my High-Speed Serial Link Work?
by Daniel Payne on 04-30-2024 at 10:00 am

traditional flow min

PCB designers can perform pre-route simulations, follow layout and routing rules, hope for the best from their prototype fab, and yet design errors cause respins which delays the project schedule. Just because post-route analysis is time consuming doesn’t mean that it should be avoided. Serial links are found in many PCB designs,… Read More

Design Stage Verification Gives a Boost for IP Designers

The concept of shift left is getting to be quite well-known. The strategy involves integrating various checks typically performed later in the design process into earlier stages. The main benefit is to catch and correct defects or errors at an earlier stage when it’s easier and faster to address. For complex SoC design, … Read More

Lifecycle Management for Automotive Electronics min

Synopsys recently hosted an information rich-webinar, modestly titled “Improving Quality, FuSa, Reliability, and Security in Automotive Semiconductors”. I think they undersold the event; this was really about managing all of those things through the lifecycle of a car, in line with auto OEMs strategies for the future of the… Read More
