Calibre Shift Left Solutions Enable Reducing TTM

In today’s rapidly evolving semiconductor industry, the design and integration of intellectual property (IP) play a pivotal role in achieving competitive advantage and market success. Whether sourced from commercial IP providers or developed in-house, ensuring that IP designs are compliant with signoff requirements… Read More


Soft checks are needed during Electrical Rule Checking of IC layouts

Soft checks are needed during Electrical Rule Checking of IC layouts

Metal1 Via Metal2 s

IC designs have physical verification applications like Layout Versus Schematic (LVS) at the transistor-level to ensure that layout and schematics are equivalent, in addition there’s an Electrical Rules Check (ERC) for connections to well regions called a soft check. The  connections to all the devices needs to have the most… Read More

Veloce Strato CS min

General purpose CPUs have run most EDA tools quite well for many years now, but if you really want to accelerate something like simulation then you start to look at using specializedhardware accelerators. . Emulators came onto the scene around 1986 and the processing power has greatly increased over the years, mostly in response… Read More

Can you name the EDA vendor that first used AI starting 15 years ago for circuit designers using SPICE simulators? I can remember that vendor, it was Solido, now part of Siemens EDA, and I just read their 8 page paper on how they look at the various levels of AI being used in EDA to help IC designers work smarter and faster than using manual… Read More

verification platform min

Digital design and verification is well understood by EDA vendors and IC designers, however mixed-signal design and verification is more challenging, because the continuous nature of analog signals requires more compute resources and specialized design skills. Siemens EDA has a unique offering in what they call SymphonyRead More

Over the last few years, there has been an increase in news about quantum computing. Much of this news coverage has been around computing supremacy, potential threats to information security and quantum cryptography. While the field of quantum computing is still in its early stages, there are several companies who have already… Read More

Achieving a Unified Electrical:Mechanical PCB Design Flow – The Siemens Digital Industries Software View

Let’s face it, designs are getting harder, much harder. Gone are the days when the electrical and mechanical design of a system occurred separately. Maybe ten years ago this practice was acceptable. Once the electrical design was completed (either the chip or the board) the parameters associated with the design were then given… Read More

Elapsed Time min

The Universal Verification Methodology (UVM) is a popular way to help verify SystemVerilog designs, and it includes a configuration system that unfortunately has some speed and usage issues. Rich Edelman from Siemens EDA wrote a detailed 20-page paper on the topic of how to avoid these issues, and I’ve gone through it to… Read More

SPIE 2023 Buzz – Siemens Aims to Break Down Innovation Barriers by Extending Design Technology Co Optimization

Preventing the propagation of systematic defects in today’s semiconductor design-to-fabrication process requires many validation, analysis and optimization steps. Tools involved in this process can include design rule checking (DRC), optical proximity correction (OPC) verification, mask writing and wafer printing… Read More

I knew that HDMI was a popular standard used to connect consumer products like a monitor to a laptop, but most professional video and broadcast systems use the SDI (Serial Digital Interface) connector standard. Pleora Technologies, founded in 2000, currently serves the machine vision and manufacturing markets, including those… Read More
