Dan is joined by sureCore CEO Paul Wells. Paul has worked in the semiconductor industry for over 25 years including two years as director of engineering for Pace Networks, where he led a multidisciplinary, 70 strong product development team creating a broadcast quality video & data mini-headend. Before that, he worked for… Read More
Douglas Smith has focused his career on optimizing advanced technologies for high volume ASIC applications. He has led elite design teams at Motorola SPS then Broadcom for over 25 years. With 200+ successful tape outs generating $10B+ in revenue. Douglas left Broadcom to self-fund a startup focused on advanced memory technologies.… Read More
Every year EDA vendor MunEDA hosts a user group meeting where engineers present how they used automation tools to improve their IC designs, and one presentation from Peter Huber of Infineon caught my attention, it was all about SRAM design optimization. Peter has authored papers at IEEE conferences and been issued patents related… Read More
Embedded memory makes computing applications run faster. In the early days of the semiconductor industry, the desire to utilize large amount of on-chip memory was limited by cost, manufacturing difficulties and technology mismatches between logic and memory circuit implementations. Since then, advancements in semiconductor… Read More
In wearables and hearables, low power is king. Earbuds for example still only manage a half-day active use before we need to recharge. Half a day falls short of truly convenient for most of us – a full day would be much better, allowing for overnight recharge. Physics limits battery sizes so system designers must look to SoC architectures… Read More
Sondrel just released a position paper on how to model and design a complex ASIC. We have been following Sondrel for the past year and I have found their collateral to be excellent. Here is the position paper overview, a description of the new Sondrel modeling tool, the 10 steps, and of course a link to download the paper:
Overview
It… Read More

SRAM is the workhorse for on-chip memories, valued for its performance and easy integration with standard processes. The needs of wearable, IoT and AI SOCs have put a lot of pressure on the requirements for all on-chip memories. This is perhaps most evident in the area of power. AI chips that rely heavily on SRAM register files are… Read More
