Keynote Speakers Announced for IDEAS 2023 Digital Forum
As we all know, hearing directly from the people who actually use EDA tools, people who are solving real world problems with the latest technologies are the best source of information. Thus EDA User group meetings are always first on my event list every year which brings us to Ansys Ideas.
Ansys User Group Meeting Features Technical
… Read MoreAI for the design of Custom, Analog Mixed-Signal ICs
Custom and Analog-Mixed Signal (AMS) IC design are used when the highest performance is required, and using digital standard cells just won’t meet the requirements. Manually sizing schematics, doing IC layout, extracting parasitics, then measuring the performance only to go back and continue iterating is a long, tedious… Read More
