IC layouts go through extensive design rule checking to ensure correctness, before being accepted for fabrication at a foundry or IDM. There’s something called the antenna effect that happens during chip manufacturing where plasma-induced damage (PID) can lower the reliability of MOSFET devices. Layout designers run Design… Read More
There is a lot of discussion about removing barriers to innovation these days. Semiconductor systems are at the heart of unlocking many forms of technical innovation, if only we could address issues such as the slowing of Moore’s Law, reduction of power consumption, enhancement of security and reliability and so on. But there … Read More
We have been working with Blue Cheetah Analog Design for three years now with great success. With new process nodes coming faster than ever before and with chiplets being pushed to the forefront of technology, the die-to-die interconnect traffic on SemiWiki has never been greater and chiplets is one of our top search terms.

Throughout the debate on fab incentives and the Chips Act I keep seeing comments like; TSMC makes >90% of all advanced silicon, or sometimes Taiwan make >90% of all advanced silicon. This kind of ill-defined and grossly inaccurate statement drives me crazy. I just saw someone make that same claim in the SemiWiki forums and… Read More

For a long time, package engineering was part of the cleanup crew for chip design. The glory was all around the design of advance monolithic chips on the latest technology node. Once the design was done, the package/test team would take the design over the finish line, adding the required I/O specs, lead frame, load board and test … Read More
