Semiconductor processes can have a rather long and interesting life cycle. At first, a new process defines the leading edge. This is cost-no-object territory, where performance is king. The process is new, the equipment to make it is expensive, and its use is reserved for those that have a market (and budget) big enough to justify… Read More
AI continues to be a fast-moving space and we’re always looking for the next big thing. There’s a lot of buzz now around something called agentic workflows – ugly name but a good idea. LLMs had a good run as the state-of-the-AI-art, however evidence is building that the foundation model behind LLMs alone has limitations, both theoretically… Read More
In today’s digital age, software has become the backbone of modern enterprises, powering critical operations, driving innovation, and facilitating collaboration. However, with the proliferation of software applications and the complexity of licensing models, organizations are facing significant challenges … Read More
We all know that building advanced semiconductors is a team sport. Many design parameters and processes must come together in a predictable, accurate and well-orchestrated way to achieve success. The players are diverse and cover the globe. Assembling all the information required to optimize the project in one place, with the… Read More
Earlier this month, SemiWiki wrote about Synopsys’s complete 1.6T Ethernet IP solution to drive AI and Hyperscale Data Center chips. A technology’s success is all about when, where and how it gets adopted within the ecosystem. In the high-speed ethernet ecosystem, the swift adoption of 1.6T Ethernet relies on key roles and coordinated… Read More
