The global semiconductor market in the second quarter of 2026 was $368 billion, according to WSTS. 2Q 2026 set records for growth: up 35% from 1Q 2026 and up a phenomenal 104% from 2Q 2025. The previous record growth was set in 1Q 2026: up 25% from the prior quarter and up 79% from a year earlier.
Growth continues to be driven by AI. Memory… Read More
When Lindu Krishna joined Axiomise after a career break, she wasn’t just relearning technical concepts – she was rebuilding her confidence, redefining what it means to be a woman engineer and quietly becoming the person who can take ownership of complex formal verification blocks. Backed by a culture where nobody sits … Read More
Modern ASIC, SoC, CPU, and GPU development depends on verification processes that detect subtle functional defects before tapeout. SystemVerilog Assertions (SVA) are particularly important because they encode temporal design intent: how signals, states, and transactions must behave across clock cycles. Unlike conventional… Read More

The semiconductor industry is entering an extraordinary growth phase, driven primarily by artificial intelligence infrastructure and the severe supply constraints surrounding advanced logic and memory devices. According to the McClean Report’s June 2026 update, the global semiconductor market is forecast to grow 98.3%… Read More
AI was a hot topic at DAC this year. If you attended the event, you’ve already heard about many new tools and systems that aim to improve time to market and quality for advanced semiconductors and systems. I had the pleasure of chairing an Accellera sponsored luncheon panel on Tuesday at DAC that took a different view of AI.
As AI and … Read More
