siemens panel on software-defined systems min

Modern EVs are prime examples of software-defined systems, so I attended a #62DAC panel session hosted by Siemens to learn more from experts at Collins Aerospace, Arm, AMD and Siemens. Here’s the list of panelists that span several domains, and what follows is my paraphrase of the discussion topics.

AI was everywhere at DAC. Presentations, panel discussions, research papers and poster sessions all had a strong dose of AI. At the DAC Pavillion on Monday two heavy weights in the industry, Siemens and NVIDIA took the stage to discuss AI for design, both present and future.  What made this event stand out for me was the substantial… Read More

aprisa at #62dac

My first panel discussion at DAC 2025 was all about using AI for digital implementation, as Siemens has a digital implementation tool called Aprisa  which has been augmented with AI to produce better results, faster. Panelists were from Samsung, Broadcom, MaxLinear, AWS and Siemens. In the past it could take an SoC design team… Read More

Calibre is a well-known EDA tool from Siemens that is used for physical verification, but I didn’t really know how AI technology was being used, so I attended a Tuesday session at #62DAC to get up to speed. Priyank Jain, Calibre Product Management presented slides and finished up with a Q&A session.

The Shift to System Technology Co Optimization

The demand for higher performance, greater configurability, and more cost-effective solutions is pushing the industry toward heterogeneous integration and 3D integrated circuits (3D ICs). These solutions are no longer reserved for niche applications—they are rapidly becoming essential to mainstream semiconductor design.… Read More

Scaling 3D IC Technologies – Siemens Hosts a Meeting of the Minds at DAC

3D IC was a very popular topic at DAC. The era of heterogeneous, multi-chip design is here.  There were a lot of research results and practical examples presented. What stood out for me was a panel at the end of day two of DAC that was hosted by Siemens. This panel brought together an impressive group of experts to weigh in on what was really… Read More

Siemens Proposes Unified Static and Formal Verification with AI min

Given my SpyGlass background I always keep an eye out for new ideas that might be emerging in static and formal verification. Whatever can be covered through stimulus-free analysis reduces time that needn’t be wasted in dynamic analysis, also adding certainty to coverage across that range. Still, advances don’t come easily. … Read More

Parasitic extraction is essential in integrated circuit (IC) design, as it identifies unintended resistances, capacitances, and inductances that can impact circuit performance. These parasitic elements arise from the layout and interconnects of the circuit and can affect signal integrity, power consumption,… Read More

SmartCompile

In the race to deliver ever-larger SoCs under shrinking schedules, simulation is becoming a bottleneck. With debug cycles constrained by long iteration times—even for minor code changes—teams are finding traditional flows too rigid and slow. The problem is further magnified in continuous integration and continuous deployment… Read More
