Just before fabrication, the design flow of all integrated circuits (ICs) culminates in transistor-based, top-level simulations. Unfortunately, verifying functionality, connectivity, and performance ...
SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 24, 2006--Magma(R) Design Automation Inc. (Nasdaq:LAVA), a provider of semiconductor design software, today announced the availability of FineSim(R) Pro, the ...
This technical FAQ examines three modeling gaps identified in engineering literature and outlines algorithmic methods to ...
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - A simulation of electrical current moving through a futuristic electronic transistor has been modeled atom-by-atom in less than 15 minutes by Purdue University researchers. The ...
Almost every chip being taped out today is mixed-signal in nature. In addition to increased integration of analog and RF blocks, designers are using complex power-management techniques to minimize ...
With gate counts and system complexity growing exponentially, new submicron technologies pose many challenges in both the design and verification domains. Nowadays, many high-performance ...
Technologies that had become specialist tools are moving back into mainstream usage; shift left is not just about doing things earlier in the flow. A few decades ago, all designers did ...
Keeping pace with the breakneck speed of silicon technology advancement requires substantial manual work. Nowhere is that more apparent than with the reuse of full-, semi- or structured-custom cores.
Nothing is worse for a design team than a chip that fails to work in the bringup lab. Electrical problems are historically a major cause of such failures. Power leaks, power-ground DC paths, missing ...
