The Growing Importance of PVT Monitoring for Silicon Lifecycle Management
In an era defined by complex chip architectures, ever-shrinking technology nodes and very demanding applications, Silicon Lifecycle Management (SLM) has become a foundational strategy for optimizing performance, reliability, and efficiency across the lifespan of a semiconductor device. Central to effective SLM are Process,… Read More
Andes RISC-V CON in Silicon Valley Overview
RISC-V conferences have been at full capacity and I expect this one will be well attended as well. Andes is the biggest name in RSIC-V. The most notable thing about RISC-V conferences is the content. Not only is the content deep, it is international from the top companies in the industry. It is hard to find a design win these days without… Read More
Predictive Load Handling: Solving a Quiet Bottleneck in Modern DSPs
When people talk about bottlenecks in digital signal processors (DSPs), they usually focus on compute throughput: how many MACs per second, how wide the vector unit is, how fast the clock runs. But ask any embedded AI engineer working on always-on voice, radar, or low-power vision—and they’ll tell you the truth: memory stalls … Read More
Synopsys Webinar: The Importance of Security in Multi-Die Designs – Navigating the Complex Landscape
In today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, the security of electronic systems is of the highest priority. This importance is underscored by technological advancements and increasing regulatory demands. Multi-die designs which integrate multiple dies (also called chiplets) into a single package, introduce … Read More

An Imaginative Approach to AI-based Design
DVCon 2025 was unquestionably a forum for pulling out all the stops in AI-based (RTL) design and verification, particularly around generative AI and agentic methods. I heard three product pitches and a keynote and have been told that every AI talk was standing room only. A pitch from Rise-DA particularly appealed to me because … Read More
TRNG for Automotive achieves ISO 26262 and ISO/SAE 21434 compliance
The security of a device or system depends mainly on being unable to infer or guess an alphanumeric code needed to gain access to it or its data, be that a password or an encryption key. In automotive applications, the security requirement goes one step further – an attacker may not gain access per se, but if they can compromise vehicle… Read More
