Cloud Engineering Simulation: A Game Changer for Chip Designers
The microelectronics industry is entering the era of Cloud Engineering Simulation to slash the costs and risks of new technology development and speed time-to-market in spaces like semiconductors, MEMS sensors, RF front ends, biomedical and...
Taking Atoms to Systems in Next-Generation SoC Designs
New system-on-chip (SoC) devices are driving new memory architectures and photonic interfaces, while specialized new intellectual property (IP) requires analysis down to the nanometer and atomic levels because of single nanometer process nodes....
The Importance of a Well-Coordinated Semiconductor Supply Chain
Would you buy your next hotdog in parts, from un-coordinated suppliers? For example: Get the bun from a baker, the sausage from a butcher, mustard and/or ketchup and veggies from the nearest supermarket? If yes, you may find the sausage being too...
EDA and Foundry Collaboration Speeds MEMS Sensor Design
New MEMS-based products are constantly emerging, fueled by the Internet of Things (IoT), autonomous driving, smart manufacturing and healthcare applications. The MEMS pressure sensor market is no exception to this trend1. Its growth has been driven...
Enabling IoT Design with Integrated MEMS/IC Co-Design and Verification
Creating a custom Internet of Things (IoT) IC is challenging because it involves multiple design domains (digital, analog and RF). Creating a sensor-based IC that combines electronics that use the traditional CMOS IC design flow with a MEMS sensor...
How to Add Machine Intelligence or AI to EDA Tools
Constant coverage of an invigorating topic like machine intelligence in the media often urges us to consider its use in EDA technology. As is often the case, there are many myths and falsehoods that consume our time and effort when trying to apply...
EDA is Better in the Cloud. Here’s Why the Cloud is the Future of EDA
I really don’t know clouds at all. – Joni Mitchell
