Todd Burkholder and Andras Vass-Varnai, Siemens EDA
As semiconductor devices become smaller, more powerful and more densely integrated, thermal management has shifted from an afterthought to a central challenge in modern IC design. In contemporary 3D IC architectures—where multiple chiplets are stacked and closely arrayed—power… Read More
Chip on Panel on Substrate, often shortened to CoPoS, extends the familiar idea of chip on carrier packaging by moving the redistribution and interposer style structures from circular wafers to large rectangular panels. The finished panel assembly is then mounted on an organic or glass package substrate. This shift from round

The demand for higher performance, greater configurability, and more cost-effective solutions is pushing the industry toward heterogeneous integration and 3D integrated circuits (3D ICs). These solutions are no longer reserved for niche applications—they are rapidly becoming essential to mainstream semiconductor design.… Read More
The semiconductor industry is rapidly moving beyond traditional 2D packaging, embracing technologies such as 3D integrated circuits (3D ICs) and 2.5D advanced packaging. These approaches combine heterogeneous chiplets, silicon interposers, and complex multi-layer routing to achieve higher performance and integration.… Read More
In a major announcement at the 2025 Design Automation Conference (DAC), Siemens EDA introduced a significant expansion to its electronic design automation (EDA) portfolio, aimed at transforming how engineers design, validate, and manage the complexity of next-generation three-dimensional integrated circuits (3D ICs).… Read More
In a keynote delivered at this year’s Siemens EDA User2User event, CEO Mike Ellow presented a focused vision for the evolving role of electronic design automation (EDA) within the broader context of global technology shifts. The session covered Siemens EDA’s current trajectory, market strategy, and the changing landscape … Read More
In this episode of the Semiconductor Insiders video series, Dan is joined by Anna Fontanelli, founder and CEO of MZ Technologies. Anna explains some of the substantial challenges associated with heterogeneous 3D integration. Dan then begins to explore some of the capabilities of GenioEVO, the first integrated chiplet/package… Read More
Modern vehicles have become quite sophisticated, like a supercomputer on wheels. They integrate a vast number of electronic components, including thousands of chips, to deliver advanced functionalities ranging from infotainment to critical safety systems. This increasing complexity necessitates a robust approach to … Read More
