Since ramping up several years ago, the global semiconductor and artificial intelligence (AI) race has been driven by scale, from building larger data centers, developing bigger and more powerful models, and with them, increasingly complex and… Read More
I first learned about ATPG – Automatic Test Program Generation in the 1980s at Silicon Compilers, then continued in the 90s at Viewlogic with the Sunrise tools, so it was illuminating to get an update from Synopsys on their ATPG technology by attending a webinar. Synopsys over the years has developed a family of test tools, shown … Read More
Synopsys and AMD were recently selected by the World Economic Forum for inclusion in the WEF’s MINDS (Meaningful, Intelligent, Novel, Deployable Solutions) AI program, recognizing their leadership and real-world impact in applying generative and agentic AI to semiconductor design and engineering. This distinction places… Read More
