Synopsys and Intel Foundry are expanding their collaboration to accelerate customer adoption of Intel 14A, connecting advanced process technology with production-ready electronic design automation, silicon intellectual property, multiphysics analysis, and multi-die integration. Announced at the 2026 DAC Chips to … Read More
Intel’s 18A process technology has become one of the most scrutinized semiconductor manufacturing nodes in the industry. It represents Intel’s introduction of two major innovations: RibbonFET gate-all-around (GAA) transistors and PowerVia backside power delivery (BSPD). These technologies are intended to improve transistor… Read More
The semiconductor industry is in the midst of a structural supply challenge that’s tightly coupled to exploding demand for advanced chips, especially those used in AI, HPC, and next-generation mobile and consumer devices. At the center of this vortex is the 2nm class of manufacturing technology, representing one of the most … Read More
Design-Technology Co-Optimization (DTCO) has been a foundational concept in semiconductor engineering for years. So, when Synopsys referenced DTCO in their April 2025 press release about enabling Angstrom-scale chip designs on Intel’s 18A and 18A-P process technologies, it may have sounded familiar—almost expected. … Read More
