At the recent Synopsys Users Group Meeting (SNUG) I had the honor of leading a panel of experts on the topic of chiplets. One of those panelists was John Lee, Head of Electronics, Semiconductors and Optics at Ansys.
How is the signoff flow evolving and what is being done to help mitigate the growing signoff complexity challenge?

Masks have always been an essential part of the lithography process in the semiconductor industry. With the smallest printed features already being subwavelength for both DUV and EUV cases at the bleeding edge, mask patterns play a more crucial role than ever. Moreover, in the case of EUV lithography, throughput is a concern, … Read More
At the recent Synopsys Users Group Meeting (SNUG) I had the honor of leading a panel of experts on the topic of chiplets. One of those panelists was the very personable Dr. Henry Sheng, Group Director of R&D in the EDA Group at Synopsys. Henry currently leads engineering for 3DIC, advanced technology and visualization.

At the recent Synopsys Users Group Meeting (SNUG) I had the honor of leading a panel of experts on the topic of chiplets. The discussion was based on a report published by the MIT Technology Review Insights in cooperation with Synopsys. This is a very comprehensive report (12 pages) that is available online HERE.
Here is the preface… Read More
Are you developing or thinking about developing your own RISC-V processor? You’re not alone. The use of the RISC-V ISA to develop processors for SoCs is a growing trend. RISC-V offers a lot of flexibility with the ability to customize or create ISA and microarchitectural extensions to differentiate your design no matter your application… Read More
The increasing demands for massive amounts of data are driving high-performance computing (HPC) to advance the pace in the High-speed Ethernet world. This in turn, is increasing the levels of complexity when designing networking SoCs like switches, retimers, and pluggable modules. This growth is accelerating the need for … Read More
Synopsys pulled out all the stops for this event. I attended the first full day, tightly scripted from Aart’s keynote kick off to 1×1 interviews with Synopsys executives to a fireside chat between Sassine Ghazi (President and COO) and Rob Aitken (ex-Fellow at Arm, now Distinguished Architect at Synopsys). That’s a lot of … Read More
Semiconductor technology is among the most complex of technologies and the semiconductor industry is among the most demanding of industries. Yet the ecosystem has delivered incredible advances over the last six decades from which the world has benefitted tremendously. Yes, of course, the markets want that break-neck speed… Read More
My IC design career started out with DRAM design back in 1978, so I’ve kept an eye on the developments in this area of memory design to note the design challenges, process updates and innovations along the way. Synopsys hosted a memory technology symposium in November 2022, and I had a chance to watch a presentation from SK hynix… Read More
