Upskill Your Smart Soldiers and Conquer the Chip War in Style!
My recent article, ‘Chip War without Soldiers’ explained the importance of upskilling and preparing the chip design workforce in this current scenario, and it also explained how it will lead to ‘Fabs without Chips’ if we don’t prioritize it. VLSI Engineers are the pillars of the semiconductor industry, and they can only transform… Read More
Computational Imaging Craves System-Level Design and Simulation Tools to Leverage AI in Embedded Vision
Aberration-free optics are bulky and expensive. Thanks to high-performance AI-enabled processors and GPUs with abundant processing capabilities, image quality nowadays relies more on high computing power tied to miniaturized optics and sensors. Computational imaging is the new trend in imaging and relies on the fusion … Read More

Synopsys Expands Agreement with Samsung Foundry to Increase IP Footprint
Many credible market analysis firms are predicting the semiconductor market to reach the trillion dollar mark over the next six years or so. Just compare this to the more than six decades it took for the market to cross the $500 billion mark. The projected growth rate is incredible indeed and is driven by fast growing market segments… Read More
Requirements for Multi-Die System Success
Chiplets continue to be a hot topic on SemiWiki, conferences, white papers, webinars and one of the most active chiplet enabling vendors we work with is Synopsys. Synopsys is the #1 EDA and #1 IP company so that makes complete sense.
As you may have read, I moderated a panel on Chiplets at the last SNUG which we continue to write about.
An Automated Method to Ensure Designs Are Failure-Proof in the Field
I don’t know about you, but when I think of mission-critical applications, I immediately think of space exploration or military operations. But in today’s world, mission-critical applications are all around us. Think about the cloud and how data is managed, analyzed, and shared to execute any number of tasks that have safety … Read More
Automotive IP Certification
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
