Webinar: When Failure in Silicon Is Not an Option

Webinar: When Failure in Silicon Is Not an Option
by Daniel Nenni on 09-30-2024 at 6:00 am

background (4)

If the thought of a silicon respin keeps you awake at night, you’re not alone. Re-fabricating a chip can cost tens of millions of dollars. An unplanned respin also risks a delay in getting a product to market, which adds tremendous costs in terms of lost business.

Undoubtedly, adding to your sleep loss is the recent rise in respins.… Read More

Keysight EDA at 61DAC min

Entering the exhibit area of DAC on the first floor I was immediately faced with the Keysight EDA booth, and it was even larger than either the Synopsys or Cadence booths. They had a complete schedule of partners presenting in their theatre that included: Microsoft Azure, Riscure, Fermi Labs, BAE Systems, Alphawave, Intel Foundry,… Read More


Elevate Your Analog Layout Design to New Heights

Elevate Your Analog Layout Design to New Heights
by Daniel Payne on 08-27-2024 at 8:00 am

learning analog ic layout min

Analog IC layout is a demanding endeavor as it entails conforming to complex layout design rules, interpreting design intentions from the schematics and understanding arcane topics like transistor matching, noise tolerance, parasitics and latch up. These skills are often handed down from one generation to the next, one on … Read More
