Today, Cadence and Samsung announced the availability of an Automotive Reference Flow for Samsung Foundry's 14LPU process technology. In the press release back in 2016 when the process was first announced, Samsung said: Samsung’s fourth-ge...

Benedict Evans used to work in Silicon Valley for Andreesen-Horowitz (a16z) but he returned to the UK (he's British). But one thing hasn't changed—he still does a big Powerpoint early in the year about the major internet trends that are driving...

The add-on model is applicable everywhere! You can choose a basic version of the car and add-on products make it faster, nicer, or more special. Air travel add-on includes seat reservation, food, priority check-in, and extra baggage. When you purchas...

Gall's Law says: A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked. A complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be patched up to make it work. You have to start over with a working...

Gone are the days of exporting results from multiple interactive runs and combining them into Excel spreadsheets for analysis. The new Reference Histories and Merge Histories flows address all these concerns. Click here to know more.

There's a story, probably apocryphal, about a screenwriter pitching a movie in Hollywood. The potential producer says "It looks like a great movie. It's a pity nobody has made it already so we could make the sequel". Given that almost every other mov...

After a quick overview of Allegro® System Capture , let’s start at the very beginning of the design process. Where are the parts? What parts can you use when creating an Allegro System Capture logical design? Parts, as you know, are the basi...

Tomorrow is another Cadence global holiday. None of us will be working and Breakfast Bytes will not appear. I rather like these special Cadence holidays, compared to true public holidays, since most people are working. If you go to a park, the p...

'Virtuoso Meets Maxwell' はVirtuoso RFソリューションとVirtuoso MultiTechの機能及びその潜在能力の紹介を目的としたブログの連載です。ではどのようにVirtuosoがMaxwellと出会うのでしょうか。現在、VirtuosoプラットフォームはRF設計をサポートしており、RF設計者は物理的な放射の影響をマクスウェルの方程式で測ります。この連載では、有益なソフトウェアの改善点にスポットを当てて解説するだけでなく、VirtuosoのIC...

Today is the 70th anniversary of a very significant event in all our lives, even if few of us were alive back then. Exactly 70 years ago, March 31, 1951, the first commercial computer shipped. You might assume that the first computer was shipped...

Many times, you would have required to create a standard pulse waveform that can be used for testing devices as per the industry standard. One good example is to simulate the ISO 7637-2 transient at the schematic design stage. This practice ensures t...

Do you have a requirement to specify measurements that are not default while performing memory characterization? Liberate MX has a solution for you.

Yesterday, in my post Intel IDM 2.0 , I gave a summary of Pat Gelsinger's presentation last week on... well, everything he is doing as CEO of Intel after not much more than a month in the job—somehow I think that he's been thinking about...

当今的许多模拟，RF和混合信号设计都要求在同一模组内部集成多个不同工艺的IC，以实现所需的性能目标。设计师使用异构器件集成方法能够获得单片IC (SoC) 设计上不容易达到的结果。与此同时对设计师而言，异构集成也是全新的挑战。

You've probably read in the press that Intel's new CEO, Pat Gelsinger, laid out his vision for Intel's future last week. You probably also know that, as he put it, "I've spent four decades in this industry, three of them here at ...

In circuit design, wrong connectivity may cause undesired leakage paths that may result in current hotspots. These current hotspots can be quickly identified with Spectre’s dynamic design checks. This blog describes how to use the Spectre design checks...
