Traditional RTL low power design techniques such as sequential clock gating are widely deployed across the industry. Yet, even after multiple RTL revisions, residual power inefficiencies often remain undetected until silicon, resulting in missed optimization opportunities.
This seminar presents a refined approach to

Overview: Protecting ICs from costly ESD and latch-up failures
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) events cost the semiconductor industry an estimated $8 billion annually in lost productivity, warranty claims and product failures [1].
Ensuring the robust protection of integrated circuits (ICs) against various… Read More
RISC-V has emerged as a cornerstone of modern computing, offering an open-source alternative to proprietary designs like ARM and x86. Free from licensing fees and highly extensible, RISC-V powers everything from IoT devices to AI accelerators, with over 13 billion cores shipped globally. Annual RISC-V Summits, organized… Read More
Can cash and IBM collaboration put Japan into premier-league chipmaking? Rapidus is betting billions it can.
When Japan announced the creation of Rapidus in 2022, the news was met with a mix of enthusiasm and skepticism. The company would enter the market at a time of escalating demand for semiconductor fabrication capacity to… Read More
