Uniquely Understanding Challenges of Chip Design and Verification

Uniquely Understanding Challenges of Chip Design and Verification
by Daniel Nenni on 11-14-2023 at 6:00 am

Jean Marie Brunet (1)

Jean-Marie Brunet is Vice President and General Manager of Siemens Hardware-Assisted Verification. He and I spoke recently about how different his hardware group is from the rest of the software-centric EDA product space and why a hardware-oriented EDA vendor like Siemens fully understands the challenges of the chip design… Read More


Successful 3DIC design requires an integrated approach

Successful 3DIC design requires an integrated approach
by Kalar Rajendiran on 11-13-2023 at 6:00 am

Siemens EDA 3DIC Graphics

While the leap from traditional SoC/IC designs to Three-Dimensional Integrated Circuits (3DICs) designs brings new benefits and opportunities, it also introduces new challenges. The benefits include performance, power efficiency, footprint reduction and cost savings. The challenges span design, verification, thermal… Read More


Make Your RISC-V Product a Fruitful Endeavor

Make Your RISC-V Product a Fruitful Endeavor
by Daniel Nenni on 11-06-2023 at 6:00 am

RISC V Chip

Consider RISC-V ISA as a new ‘unforbidden fruit’. Unlike other fruits (ISAs) that grow in proprietary orchards, RISC-V is available to all, i.e. open-source. Much like a delicious fruit can be transformed into a wide array of delectable desserts, so can RISC-V be utilized to create a plethora of effective applications across … Read More

3D IC Cross Section Illustration

One of the most promising advancements in the semiconductor field is the development of 3D Integrated Circuits (3D ICs). 3D ICs enable companies to partition semiconductor designs and seamlessly integrate silicon Intellectual Property (IP) at the most suitable process nodes and processes. This strategic partitioning yields… Read More

The Path to Chiplet Architecture

If you have anything to do with the semiconductor industry, you already know that one of the hottest areas for both manufacturing and EDA are systems designed with advanced packaging, basically putting more than one die (aka chiplets) in the same package.

When 3D packaging was first introduced, there were not really any effective… Read More

cts

You are probably familiar with the acronym PPA, which stands for Power/Performance/Area. Sometimes it is PPAC, where C is for cost, since there is more to cost than just area. For example, did you know that adding an additional metal layer to a chip dramatically increases the cost, sometimes by millions of dollars? It requires a … Read More


AI for the design of Custom, Analog Mixed-Signal ICs

AI for the design of Custom, Analog Mixed-Signal ICs
by Daniel Payne on 09-28-2023 at 10:00 am

high sigma verifier min

Custom and  Analog-Mixed Signal (AMS) IC design are used when the highest performance is required, and using digital standard cells just won’t meet the requirements. Manually sizing schematics, doing IC layout, extracting parasitics, then measuring the performance only to go back and continue iterating is a long, tedious… Read More


Optimizing Shift-Left Physical Verification Flows with Calibre

Optimizing Shift-Left Physical Verification Flows with Calibre
by Peter Bennet on 09-26-2023 at 6:00 am

Shift-left with Calibre

Advanced process nodes create challenges for EDA both in handling ever larger designs and increasing design process complexity.

Shift-left design methodologies for design cycle time compression are one response to this. And this has also forced some rethinking about how to build and optimize design tools and flows.

SemiWiki… Read More
