WEBINAR: Defacto is Boosting Front-end SoC Design With AI-Powered EDA tools

The real promise of AI in EDA is not to replace EDA tools or reinvent design flows, it is to help engineers accomplish existing tasks even more complex design tasks faster, more safely, and with far less tool expertise than was previously required.

The webinar explores what a truly effective AI-powered EDA tool should look like, and what it must deliver to make that promise real.

First Aspects to Consider

Security comes first. The ideal tool runs entirely on-premise and requires no external communication once installed, ensuring your sensitive design data never leaves your infrastructure. Flexibility matters just as much. The tool should work equally well with commercial and open-source LLMs, giving several corporations the freedom to choose what fits their environment and their budget.

Speed of deployment is also expected when adopting an AI assistant for an EDA tool. Indeed, faster deployment means faster results. New tool-based flows and AI-assisted applications should be ready in minutes, not weeks, so that teams can respond quickly to design challenges without lengthy integration efforts.

Also, rather than blindly sending data to an LLM, the tool should manage token consumption carefully, balancing output quality against cost to deliver accurate and reliable results without unnecessary overhead.

Expected Benefits

Major benefit is a step-change in usability. Junior engineers and occasional users should be able to complete complex EDA tasks from day one, without spending months mastering commands and APIs. This means generating scripts on demand in the language of their choice, and running tools interactively or in background with minimal prior knowledge. When less experienced users can safely execute tasks that previously required a specialist, the entire design team moves faster and delivers more.

Also, a well-built AI-powered EDA tool also improves interoperability with the rest of the design environment, streamlining file preparation and automating compliance checks. It keeps pace with the fast-moving AI landscape without disrupting existing workflows.

Finally, support for multiple human languages removes barriers for global design teams across different regions and cultures.

Meet Defacto’s AI Assistant

Defacto’s AI Assistant, a production-ready tool, was built to deliver every requirements mentioned. It is already in use by early adopters who are reporting significant acceleration in their design tasks, with less reliance on tool experts and greater confidence in their results.

Several design tasks such as (i) structural checks between RTL and design collaterals, or (ii) reusing +90% from previous design projects or (iii) building complex Subsystems including their related RTL, IP-XACT and design collaterals are made now much more simple with the Defacto’s AI Assistant.

Join this webinar to see what effective AI integration looks like in practice, and to discover how Defacto’s AI Assistant can start making your design work faster, safer, and more autonomous  right away.

Abstract:

As SoC design complexity grows and design windows shrink, EDA tools must evolve beyond traditional workflows. AI is the catalyst!

This webinar explores what the next generation of EDA tools and design platforms should look like when built with AI in the middle. We’ll define the key criteria that make an AI-powered EDA environment truly effective and also examine how AI is fundamentally transforming the SoC designer experience.

We’ll demonstrate how Defacto’s AI Assistant and MCP Server architecture delivers these criteria today, providing a secured, scalable, and LLM-agnostic foundation that keeps pace with the rapid evolution of AI technologies to help facing SoC design challenges and enabling a better management of aggressive PPAs and design cost.
