The Memory Sector Is Becoming One of the Main Beneficiaries of the AI Boom
The explosive growth of artificial intelligence is transforming the semiconductor industry, and nowhere is this more evident than in the memory sector. AI training and inference workloads are fundamentally memory-intensive, driving unprecedented demand for advanced DRAM architectures, High Bandwidth Memory (HBM), and… Read More
WEBINAR: Engineering Documentation is a Critical Source of Truth – Do You Know if it’s Accurate?
Embedded systems programs rarely fail because of a lack of execution capability. They fail because critical engineering documentation drifts out of alignment over time and distance. Simply put, the team is correctly following the wrong instructions. This includes requirements, architecture, implementation, verification,… Read More
Technical Paper: FPGA Prototyping That Creates Useful PreSilicon Evidence
As semiconductor designs continue to grow in complexity, FPGA prototyping has become an essential component of modern pre-silicon validation strategies. While FPGA capacity and gate-count equivalence often dominate discussions around prototyping platforms, the true value of an FPGA prototype lies elsewhere: its ability… Read More

What’s New at the 2026 DAC Exhibits
The most common question that I get each year at DAC is, “So, what’s new?” When I reviewed the exhibitor list I was pleasantly surprised to see how many EDA, IP and AI companies were attending that I didn’t know about. Here’s just a quick preview of what to expect in Long Beach from July 27-29. I’ll… Read More
