Daniel Nenni is joined by Dr. Sailesh Kumar, CEO of Baya Systems. With over two decades of experience, Sailesh is a seasoned expert in SoC, fabric, I/O, memory architecture, and algorithms. Previously, Sailesh founded NetSpeed Systems and served as its Chief Technology Officer until its successful acquisition by Intel. Sailesh… Read More
In the early days an IC had a single clock and a single reset signal, making it a simple matter to reset the chip into a known, stable state, so there was little need for detailed analysis. For modern designs there can be dozens to hundreds of clocks, creating separate domains and some use of asynchronous resets, so the challenge of ensuring… Read More
The ASIC business has always been a key enabler of the semiconductor industry but it is a difficult business. In my 40 years I have seen many ASIC companies come and go but I have never seen one like Alchip.
Alchip Technologies Ltd. was founded more than 20 years ago, about half way through my career. I know one of the founders, a fiercely… Read More
As the complexity of modern System-on-Chip (SoC) designs continues to rise, achieving energy efficiency measured as performance per watt has become a crucial design goal. With the increasing demand for powerful, multifunctional chips, balancing performance with power consumption has become essential. Realistic workloads… Read More
The Design Automation Conference (DAC) is a premier event that focuses on the design and automation of electronic systems. It is an annual conference that has been held since 1964, making it one of the longest-running and most established events in the field of electronic design automation (EDA).
DAC offers outstanding training,… Read More
Dieter Therssen obtained his master’s degree in Electronics Engineering from KU Leuven in 1987. He started his career as a hardware design engineer, using IMEC’s visionary tools and design methodologies in the early days of silicon integration.
Since then, Dieter developed his career across many digital technologies,… Read More
Semiconductor intellectual property (IP) plays a critical role in modern system-on-chip (SoC) designs. That’s not surprising given that modern SoCs are highly complex designs that leverage already proven building blocks such as processors, interfaces, foundational IP, on-chip bus fabrics, security IP, and others. This… Read More
The automotive industry is undergoing a remarkable transformation, with vehicles becoming more connected, automated, and reliant on software. While these advancements promise convenience, comfort and efficiency to the consumers, the nature and complexity of the technologies also raise concerns for functional safety … Read More
As I sift through mounds of semiconductor press releases trying to figure out the relevance (with mixed results) I consider it a learning experience even when they don’t really tell me anything. This one however tells me two very important things:
1) Arm is a much more competitive company with the new leadership. I saw a noticeable… Read More
The first chiplets focused summit took place last month. So many accomplished speakers gave keynote talks on what direction should and would the Chiplets ecosystem evolution take. Corigine presented the keynote on what direction hardware emulation should and would evolve for speeding up chiplet- based designs. During a pre-conference… Read More
