On July 9, 2025, a DACtv session by Dr. Peter Levin explored the transformative impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on chip design, as presented in the YouTube video. The speaker, an industry expert, delved into how AI is reshaping electronic design automation (EDA), addressing the escalating complexity of modern chips and… Read More
In a keynote at the 62nd Design Automation Conference (#62DAC) on July 8, 2025, Jason Cong, Volgenau Chair for Engineering Excellence Professor, UCLA, reflected on over 30 years in the DAC community, highlighting the transformative role of AI and machine learning (ML) in semiconductor design. The speaker, whose first DAC paper… Read More
AI technology was prevalent at DAC 2025, but can we really trust what Generative AI (GenAI) is producing? Vishal Moondhra, VP of Solutions Engineering from Perforce talked about this topic in the Exhibitor Forum on Monday, so I got a front row seat to learn more.
Vishal started out by introducing the four challenges and risks of using… Read More
In Silvaco’s June 2025 Tech Talk, “The Diffusion of Innovation: Investing in the Ecosystem Expansion,” Chief Revenue Officer Ian Chen outlined how strategic partnerships accelerate R&D in semiconductor design and digital twin modeling. As a leading provider of TCAD, EDA software, and SIP solutions,… Read More
The AI Hardware & Edge AI Summit is rebranding to the AI Infra Summit to create the first comprehensive, full-stack AI Infrastructure conference, arranged in a modular way that equally enables both enterprises and technology/solution providers to benefit from domain-specific… Read More
Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are evolving at an extraordinary pace, powering advancements across industries. As models grow larger and more sophisticated, they require vast amounts of data to be processed in real-time. This demand puts pressure on the underlying hardware infrastructure, particularly… Read More
The increasing demands of data-intensive applications necessitate more efficient storage and memory utilization. The rapid evolution of AI workloads, particularly with Generative AI (GenAI), demands infrastructure that can adapt to diverse computational needs. AI models vary widely in resource requirements, necessitating… Read More
Can you name the EDA vendor that first used AI starting 15 years ago for circuit designers using SPICE simulators? I can remember that vendor, it was Solido, now part of Siemens EDA, and I just read their 8 page paper on how they look at the various levels of AI being used in EDA to help IC designers work smarter and faster than using manual… Read More
State-of-the-art electronics demand high performance, low power consumption, small footprint and high reliability from their semiconductor products. While this imperative is true across many different market segments, it is critical for applications such as the automotive/autonomous driving and data centers. As electronic… Read More
I’ve been following Solido as a start-up EDA vendor since 2005, then they were acquired by Siemens in 2017. At the recent User2User event there was a presentation by Kwonchil Kang, of Samsung Electronics on the topic, ML-enabled Statistical Circuit Verification Methodology using Solido. For high reliability circuits… Read More
