An Insider’s View of the 2023 Global Semiconductor Alliance’s (GSA) Annual Awards
My beautiful wife and I attended the annual Global Semiconductor Alliance (GSA) Awards event last week. Usually this is a solo event but since my wife is CFO of SemiWiki I was able to get her an invite. I go every year and she wanted to see what all of the excitement was about. She also knows quite a few industry people from attending the… Read More
WEBINAR: FPGA-Accelerated AI Speech Recognition
The three-step conversational AI (CAI) process – automatic speech recognition (ASR), natural language processing, and text-to-synthesized speech response – is now deeply embedded in the user experience for smartphones, smart speakers, and other devices. More powerful large language models (LLMs) can answer more queries… Read More

When Will Structured Assembly Cross the Chasm?
First, a quick definition. By “structured assembly,” I mean the collection of tools to support IP packaging with standardized interfaces, SoC integration based on those IPs together with bus fabric and other connectivity hookups, register definition and management in support of hardware/software interface definition, … Read More
Using PCB Automation for an AI and Machine Vision Product
I knew that HDMI was a popular standard used to connect consumer products like a monitor to a laptop, but most professional video and broadcast systems use the SDI (Serial Digital Interface) connector standard. Pleora Technologies, founded in 2000, currently serves the machine vision and manufacturing markets, including those… Read More
Automated Constraints Promotion Methodology for IP to Complex SoC Designs
In the world of semiconductor design, constraints are essentially specifications and requirements that guide the implementation of a specific hardware or software component within a larger system. They dictate timing, area, power, performance, and of course functionality of a design, playing a crucial role in ensuring that… Read More
WEBINAR: Joint Pre synthesis RTL & Power Intent Assembly flow for Large System on Chips and Subsystems
Nowadays, low power design requirements are key for large SoCs (system on chips) for different applications: AI, Mobile, HPC, etc. Power intent management early in the design flow is becoming crucial to help facing PPA (Power Performance Area) design challenges.
With the increasing complexity of such … Read More
