The chips for the Internet of Things (IoT) are made from many functional units: digital logic, CPU, battery management, ROM, RAM, and analog blocks such as DAC, ADC and amplifiers. The IoT chips, such ...

There's a gaping hole in analog layout design automation. Over the past few years, a number of EDA companies have tried to fill it, but largely failed due to overambitious plans or lack of appropriate ...

A new technical paper titled “Novel Transformer Model Based Clustering Method for Standard Cell Design Automation” was published by researchers at Nvidia. “Standard cells are essential components of ...

The design teams typically invest years and numerous iterations to validate IP and produce a functioning chip. Once this validation is complete, they create derivatives of the silicon-proven IP, often ...
