As semiconductor complexity increases and board designs become denser, manufacturing teams face tighter tolerances, reduced test access, and rising pressure to maintain yield and throughput. Validating RF performance and high-speed digital signal integrity at production scale adds a new layer of complexity that traditional… Read More
AI data center networks now operate at a scale where device-level validation no longer reflects real performance. Engineers must understand how systems behave under realistic traffic conditions, not just in isolated tests.

As systems move into higher frequencies and wider bandwidths, small measurement errors can lead to costly design decisions. Engineers working in wireless, radar, satellite, and optical domains must now validate signals that push existing tools to their limits.
Join Jun Chie, Vice President of Product Management at Keysight,… Read More
Data rates have doubled, but validation methods have not kept pace. As PCIe, DDR, and multi-terabit optical interconnects evolve, engineers are encountering signal integrity challenges much earlier in the design process.
Join Niels Fache, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Design Engineering Software at Keysight,… Read More
Aerospace, defense, and other mission-critical technologies face rapidly evolving hardware threats. A hobbyist can add a single board computer to a consumer device. A nation-state can scale an exploit across critical infrastructure. The attack surface widens fast, and the security implications are real.
Adversaries are… Read More
Given my physics background I’m ashamed to admit I know very little about quantum computers (QC) though I’m now working to correct that defect. Like many of you I wanted to start with the basics: what are the components and systems in the physical implementation of a quantum “CPU” and how do they map to classical CPUs? I’m finding the… Read More

Jay Vleeschhouwer, Managing Director of Software Research at Griffin Securities, is a noted financial analyst who does a yearly presentation on the State of EDA during the Design Automation Conference (DAC). This year was no exception. He and I spent a memorable afternoon discussing the Synopsys-Ansys merger and startups. … Read More
In this episode of the Semiconductor Insiders video series, Dan is joined by Muhammad Umar Khan, Product Manager for Photonics Design Automation Solutions at Keysight Technologies. Muhammad describes the primary design challenges of photonic design with Dan. These include accurate models and a uniform methodology… Read More
Now that the dust has settled, I will give you my take on the Intel Foundry event. Some might call me a semiconductor event critic as I have attended hundreds of them over the last 40 years starting with the Design Automation Conference in 1984. Foundry events are my favorite because they really are the pulse of the semiconductor industry,… Read More
