Fast growing markets like 5G, biotechnology, AI, and automotive are driving the new wave in semiconductor design and the need for highly integrated system on chip (SoCs). Power management, sensors, RF ...
The design, verification and tapeout are complete, time to celebrate, to enjoy another successful design. At least until the silicon comes back. And then … If you are like most design teams at an ...
EDA and IP vendor, Synopsys Inc. has expanded its parasitic extraction tools with analog mixed-signal (AMS) and custom digital IC designers in mind. The company has unified its Star-RCXT and Raphael ...
Like everything else in semiconductor engineering at advanced process geometries, parasitic extraction is getting much more difficult at each node. There’s more circuit data to analyze, less distance ...
Achieving design closure in a system-on-a-chip (SoC) development project generally requires a great deal of patience. SoCs tend to include more and more custom circuitry, which means long simulation ...
The IEEE 1481 Working Group has approves Synopsys' proposal for an extension to the Standard Parasitic Exchange Format (SPEF) for process and temperature variation, enhancing the existing IEEE ...
