Micro-electro-mechanical systems have been available for years, and have been successful in selected high-volume applications. But MEMS design is not as organized as it could be. MEMS design typically ...
Synopsys announced that it is delivering a comprehensive 3D-IC design solution that is included in TSMC’s CoWoS™ (Chip on Wafer on Substrate) Reference Flow. The design flow is the result of the ...
Advancements in technology have led to the development of increasingly complex and densely integrated circuits (ICs). To keep up with the ever-growing demand for high-performance and power-efficient ...
One cannot imagine the world now and in the future without integrated circuits (IC or generally known as chips). With worldwide revenue projected to be about $500 billion by the end of 2019, the chip ...
As many of you may have seen, we’ve passed a major milestone since Siemens announced its intent to acquire Mentor Graphics four years ago. As of January 1, 2021, “Mentor, a Siemens business” has ...
The chip market is facing a wave of price increases, with companies issuing hike notices and foundries preparing to raise prices for the 8-inch wafer process amid current supply-demand dynamics. Many ...
Low-power IC design techniques have been around for quite a while. They weren’t always required, though they were nice to have. The rapid growth of the consumer market for battery-powered devices has ...
The first planned IC design hub sounds like a moonshot but it is certainly a clever and cost-effective way of attempting to fast track Malaysia’s much delayed ascent into the upper segments of the ...
At Embedded World 2026, most Taiwanese IC design houses reported unprecedentedly active engagement with European customers. Over the past year, visits by European downstream customers to Taiwan for ...
For circuit simulation, we have always been enthralled with the Falstad simulator which is a simple, Spice-like simulator that runs in the browser. [Brandon] has a simulator, too, but it simulates ...
