Wow, September has flown by. It's already the last Friday of the month, the last day of the month in fact, and so time for a monthly update. Kaufman Award The 2022 Kaufman Award honors Giovanni (Nanni) De Micheli of École Polytechniqu...

To ensure an improved reliability and lifetime of devices, the circuit designers need to optimize the power consumption of the devices. This blog introduces a new dynamic check that you can use to identify the devices with large power density values.

When it comes to jobs like lifting and manufacturing, robots can be sturdy and reliable machines, but what about for tasks like cooking and cleaning? Or even nursing and rehabilitation? Enter National Tsing Hua University’s (NTHU) dual-armed r...

I first met Handel Jones in the early 1980s, I think. I was at VLSI Technology, and this Welsh guy showed up and presented some results from looking at our order book. We, along with LSI Logic, had pretty much invented ASIC and had a lot of...

You might think that hearing aids are a bit of a sleepy backwater. Indeed, the only time I can remember coming across them in my job at Cadence was at a CadenceLIVE Europe presentation that I never blogged about, or if I did, it was such a passing re...

This blog helps in demonstrating the use of Pin to trunk routing style which helps in enhancing the layout experience.

Heterogeneous integration (HI) is a new way to design chips that aims to counter the growing expense and complexity of system-on-chip (SoC) design by taking a more modular approach using advanced packaging technology.

I keep reading accounts in the media and in the technical press (and YouTube) that misinterpret what RISC-V is. So today's post is going to explain that. Let's get the big thing out of the way; RISC-V is NOT a processor. I'll say that again to emphas...

Learn how to model unsteadiness in Turbomachinery with high accuracy achieving 100 to 1000 times faster simulations compared to full-unsteady methods. In this webinar we cover the basics of the Non-Linear Harmonics (NLH) method, outline how the essential characteristics of flow periodicity are used as a tool, and demonstrate the accuracy and effectiveness of NLH through a variety of test cases.

Depending on the circumstances, there are times in our lives when we have to step away from our work. Rejoining the workforce is not always easy, especially when taking a long break in the high-tech field. The Cadence Returnship Program provides a me...

Most engineers are of the view that all mesh generators use an underlying geometry that is discrete in nature, but in fact, Fidelity Pointwise can import and mesh both analytic and discrete geometry. There are several pros and cons to using both analytic and discrete geometries.

One of the key goals for USB4 is to retain compatibility with the existing ecosystem of USB3.2, USB 2.0 and Thunderbolt  products, and the resulting connection scales to the best mutual capability of the devices being connected. USB4 is designed to work with older versions of USB and Thunderbolt . USB4 Fabric support high throughput interconnects of 10 Gbps (for Gen 2) and 20 Gbps (for Gen 3) and supports Thunderbolt 3…

超大型積體電路設計暨計算機輔助設計技術研討會(VLSI Design/CAD)每年皆齊聚全台灣IC設計領域產、官、學、研各界菁英共襄盛舉，可謂台灣最具指標性的的學術與業界交流活動之一。今年第33屆已於8月2日至5日以線上混合模式舉辦，吸引了超過近千多名與會者!Cadence支持VLSI Design/CAD Symposium之舉行已超過10年，今年團隊很榮幸持續支持並參與這場積體電路與電腦輔助設計盛事，透過產學界的互動與交流，一起推動創新研究與產學發展!  在為期四天的大會...

Good Monday to you all. There are only 96 days left in 2022, and hopefully, our activities at Fidelity CFD can help you make the most of them. From the Blogs I like to say that geometry models are to mesh generation what turbulence models are to CFD....

On the academic track at CadenceLIVE Boston, Matthew Morrison of the University of Notre Dame presented The Current State of EDA Education: Challenges and Opportunities. In fact, he won the award for best presentation on the academic track. Matthew h...

When I rejoined Cadence in 2015, we had not yet announced Palladium Z1. But it was basically done, and we announced it a couple of months later. I wrote about the announcement in my post Palladium Z1, an Enterprise Server Farm in a Rack. Next, we cre...

AeroDelft is a student-led team from the Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) with one mission: developing the world’s first liquid hydrogen-powered aircraft. Because liquid hydrogen  is a cleaner alternative to conventional aviation...

The keynote for the second day of HOT CHIPS this year was a presentation by Ganesh Venkataramanan of Tesla Motors. He titled it Beyond Compute – Enabling AI Through System Integration. Tesla did not present at HOT CHIPS last year...

The rising customer expectations, intermingling fields and high performance needs can be satisfied with the system based design. An intelligent Systems Design strategy can offer a quicker route to an optimum design and helps to increase designers' productivity and analyzes efficiency by providing the ability to explore the entire design space. Cadence Intelligent System Strategy enables a system design revolution and…

Thermal analysis with the Cadence Celsius Thermal Solver integrated within the AWR Microwave Office circuit simulator gives designers an understanding of device operating temperatures related to power dissipation. That temperature information can be introduced into an electrothermal model to predict the impact on RF performance.

AWR Microwave Office回路シミュレータに統合されたCelsius Thermal Solverを活用した熱解析により、設計者は消費電力に関連するデバイス動作温度を理解できます。その温度情報を電熱モデルに導入して、RF 性能への影響を予測できます。

August is often a quiet time at Breakfast Bytes, with lots of people on vacation and Cadence not announcing any products. In 2017, I decided to do a series taking each Friday to write about a technology museum. Since then, I have visited more mu...

Artificial Intelligence (AI) inclusion in EDA is reshaping the automotive industry. The automotive sector is witnessing a profound shift with AI infusion in electronic design automation (EDA). This infusion is helping automotive manufacturers to design autonomous vehicles and integrate more functionality to meet customer expectations. Lear more about Cadence AI/ML technologies.
