Today’s advanced node chip designs are faced with many new complexities which require more verification, more validation and more analysis. The resulting data from these added steps has also grown exponentially and engineers need a way to efficiently analyze this information. The result is a new paradigm shift which has led

Synopsys’ SLM PVT Monitor (process detector, voltage monitor, temperature sensor) IP can collect voltage, temperature, and process parameters from different blocks within the IC in real time. These data can be analyzed and used to take meaningful action to optimize the performance of the chip at any stage of silicon lifecycle.

Dan is joined by Randy Fish, Director of Product Line Management for the Silicon Lifecycle Management (SLM) family at Synopsys. Randy has over 30 years of experience in the EDA, IP and semiconductor industries.
In this broad view of SLM, Randy explains what is special about monitoring and optimizing embedded memories. It turns… Read More
The electrification of cars and the growth of EVs means that more semiconductor content is being added with every new vehicle model from suppliers around the globe. There are unique concerns for automotive IP in terms of reliability, security and safety over the lifetime of the vehicle. I had the pleasure to speak with Pawini Mahajan… Read More
I spoke with Steve Pateras of Synopsys last week to better understand what was happening with their Silicon Lifecycle Management vision, and I was reminded of a Forbes article from last year: Never Heard of Silicon Lifecycle Management? Join the Club. At least two major EDA vendors are now using the relatively new acronym SLM, and… Read More
The first thing to realize about Dassault’s Simulation Lifecycle Management platform is that in the non-IC world where Dassault primarily operates, simulation doesn’t just mean functional verification or running Spice. It is anything during the design that produces analytical data. All of that data is important… Read More
