After attending the TSMC and Samsung foundry conferences I wanted to share some quick opinions about the foundry business. Nothing earth shattering but interesting just the same. Both conferences were well attended. If we are not back to the pre pandemic numbers we are very close to it.
TSMC and Samsung both acknowledged that there… Read More
Current owners of a wide range of Hyundai connected cars encompassing multiple model years are receiving or have received notification of the availability (i.e. eligibility) for a software upgrade that will connect their in-vehicle radio to the Internet. For those owners who receive and have this update installed they may not… Read More
No doubt that the design success of nowadays system on chips (SoCs) is directly linked to the success of cost control. More market opportunities are open for less expensive system on chips and electronic systems.
Both the design cost prediction and the resource tracking during the design process, are key to such a success
Predicting… Read More

The Role of Clock Gatingby Steve Hoover on 11-28-2022 at 10:00 amCategories: EDA
Perhaps you’ve heard the term “clock gating” and you’re wondering how it works, or maybe you know what clock gating is and you’re wondering how to best implement it. Either way, this post is for you.
Why Power Matters
I can’t help but laugh when I watch a movie where the main characters are shrunk… Read More
Looking for better ways to search a huge state space in model checking, Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) is one possible approach. Paul Cunningham (Senior VP/GM, Verification at Cadence), Raúl Camposano (Silicon Catalyst, entrepreneur, former Synopsys CTO and now Silvaco CTO) and I continue our series on research ideas. As always,… Read More
A Crash Course in the Future of Technologyby Vivek Wadhwa on 11-27-2022 at 2:00 pmCategories: Cadence, EDA
One of the harshest lessons we learned during the recent pandemic is the power of exponentials. As human beings, we are linear thinkers and can’t fathom how doublings of viruses — or technologies — can be destructive and disrupt everything. In my university classes and talks to business executives, I have always had to explain… Read More
