S2C has been successfully delivering rapid SoC prototyping solutions since 2003 with over 600 customers, including 6 of the world’s top 10 semiconductor companies. I personally have been involved with the prototyping market for a good part of my career and know S2C intimately.
S2C is the leading independent global supplier… Read More
One of the most promising advancements in the semiconductor field is the development of 3D Integrated Circuits (3D ICs). 3D ICs enable companies to partition semiconductor designs and seamlessly integrate silicon Intellectual Property (IP) at the most suitable process nodes and processes. This strategic partitioning yields… Read More
Intel recently issued a press announcement that has significant implications for the future of semiconductors. The release announces Intel’s new glass substrate technology. The headline states: Glass substrates help overcome limitations of organic materials by enabling an order of magnitude improvement in design rules… Read More
We have shown in the “Design IP Report” 2022 that the market share of the wired Interface IP category is a growing part of the total IP, and that this trend is confirmed year after year. The interface IP category has moved from 18% share in 2017 to 25% in 2022.
During the 2010-decade, smartphone was the strong driver for the IP industry,… Read More

On Wednesday at #60DAC I met Sudhir Mallya, Sr. VP Corporate Marketing at Alphawave Semi to get an update about what’s been happening at their IP company and with industry trends. The tagline for their company is: Accelerating the Connected World; and they have IP for connectivity, offer chiplet solutions, and even provide… Read More
Chiplets continue to be a hot topic on SemiWiki, conferences, white papers, webinars and one of the most active chiplet enabling vendors we work with is Synopsys. Synopsys is the #1 EDA and #1 IP company so that makes complete sense.
As you may have read, I moderated a panel on Chiplets at the last SNUG which we continue to write about.
Last week TSMC announced the opening of an advanced backend fab for the expansion of the TSMC 3DFabric System Integration Technology. It’s a significant announcement as the chip packaging arms race with Intel and Samsung is heating up.
Fab 6 is TSMC’s first all-in-one advanced packaging and testing fab which is part of the… Read More
Join this webinar and see UCIe in action! This webinar presents the SystemVerilog models of a Universal Chiplet Interconnect Express (UCIe) interface, including both the analog circuits in the electrical layer and digital FSMs in the logical layer. The whole physical layer (PHY) model can be efficiently simulated in SystemVerilog,… Read More
With our continuing chiplet coverage I found this of great interest. I have always felt that eFPGAs and chiplets are a natural fit for the next generation of chip design and this is an excellent example. As we design with chiplets one of the challenges is verification/validation in regards to performance and interoperability. … Read More
