Leveraging Virtual Platforms to Shift-Left Software Development and System Verification

Leveraging Virtual Platforms to Shift-Left Software Development and System Verification
by Kalar Rajendiran on 03-15-2022 at 6:00 am

Extend Accuracy with Hybrid Platforms

Ever since the cost of development started growing exponentially, engineering teams have been deploying a shift-left strategy to software development and system verification. While this has helped contain cost and accelerated product development schedules, a shift-left strategy is not without challenges. A virtual platform… Read More

Webinar: Beyond the Basics of IP-based Digital Design Management
by Daniel Payne on 03-08-2022 at 10:00 am

Digital Design Flow

According to the ESD Alliance, the single biggest revenue category in our industry is for semiconductor IP, so the concept of IP reuse is firmly established as a way to get complex products to market more quickly and reducing risk. On the flip side, with hundreds or even thousands of IP blocks in a complex SoC, how does a team, division… Read More

ON, ACLS, RMBS, AOSL, CAMT, ICHR, ONTO, SUMCO, and more!

SUMCO was the best call I read this quarter. There were many great bits of information but I want to start with the stat that really shocked me.

First of all, with regard to the LTAs out to 2026 and whether we did make progress in the last 3 months, that is correct. In the last 3 months,

Tower Semiconductor Fabs 2022

The rationale behind the Tower Semi acquisition and things to watch out for at Intel’s investor day.

Intel bids for Tower Semi
First I have to quote myself because Tower was an error of omission. In November in a piece that was likely too long for its own good, I mentioned that trailing edge fabs are in a huge position of strength… Read More
