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

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

by Peter Bennet on 07-17-2023 at 10:00 am

DesignEnhancer

Siemens EDA’s next move in its Calibre shift left strategy is the addition of correct-by-construction IC layout optimization for the most critical emerging physical design challenges. Calibre’s new DesignEnhancer product supports both custom and digital ICs and is already in use by several leading IC design companies. It … Read More

The Siemens Digital Industries Software View of AI and its Impact on System Design

The impact of AI seems to be everywhere. Products are smarter, doing more of what used to be done by the humans. Complex tasks can be completed quicker and with greater accuracy and failures can now be predicted more reliably and repaired before they even occur. The AI technologies used to make all this happen and how those technologies… Read More

Next generation electronic systems require an engineering approach incorporating a digital twin methodology for early verification with digital prototypes. Over the course of a design project, the digital twin model evolves to allow more complex interactions including analysis, simulations and validations earlier… Read More

Complexity from Disaggregated Electronics Value Chain

The transformation of the vertically integrated electronics value chain to a disaggregated supply chain has brought tremendous value to the electronics industry and benefits to the consumers. This transformation has driven the various players to become highly specialized in order to support the market trends and demands … Read More


DDR5 Design Approach with Clocked Receivers

DDR5 Design Approach with Clocked Receivers

DFE min

At the DesignCon 2023 event this year there was a presentation by Micron all about DDR5 design challenges like the need for a Decision Feedback Equalizer (DFE) inside the DRAM. Siemens EDA and Micron teamed up to write a detailed 25 page white paper on the topic, and I was able to glean the top points for this much shorter blog. The DDR5… Read More

Correct Verify Debug

Who first came up with this term shift-left ? I’d assumed Siemens EDA as they use it so widely. But their latest white paper on the productivity improvements possible with shift-left Calibre IC verification flows puts the record straight: a software engineer called Larry Smith bagged the naming rights in a 2001 paper (leapfrogging… Read More
