Enhanced Reproducibility: Scripting captures the complete post-processing state, including probes and data settings, ensuring consistent and reproducible analysis results.

Launch Analysis with a Script: The post-processing process is initiated by running the `postrecord.py` script, which generates the necessary output and begins the analysis.

Reproduce Results with a File: The script generates a `results_analysis_state…

Artificial intelligence (AI) is not only just a buzzword today; it also helps us perform our daily tasks and is included in every task — it’s the engine powering the future. From personalized recommendations on favorite apps to self-driving cars, AI is transforming the way we live, work, and innovate. Now it is getting included in EDA tools.

Engineers have traditionally spent countless hours on routine tasks…

As AI workloads grow in scale and complexity, networks are challenged to keep up. According to McKinsey & Company, global demand for data center capacity is projected to nearly triple by 2030, with AI workloads expected to account for approximately 70% of that increase. GPT-5 reportedly will have 17 trillion parameters, which would represent a 10X increase over GPT-4. In addition, in its "2024 United States Data Center…

The world of artificial intelligence is moving beyond the cloud and into our everyday devices from smart sensors to robotics and AR/VR headsets. One of the key components that enables this shift is a neural processing unit (NPU), also known as an AI accelerator, which is a specialized hardware designed to execute AI models. Optimized for neural network, deep learning, and machine learning tasks, NPUs handle the fundamental…

In the fast-paced world of Industry 4.0, quality assurance (QA) is no longer just about catching defects—it's about predicting them before they happen. AI-powered verification is transforming how engineering teams tackle QA, transforming scattered data into actionable insights.

Manufacturing defects are costly—not just in dollars, but in reputation. Yet, despite mountains of data from regression results, coverage…

As chip designs grow larger and more complex, they become increasingly difficult to manufacture as a single piece of silicon. Yields (the percentage of properly functioning chips from a semiconductor wafer) decrease significantly with larger die sizes. This limitation of the monolithic chips led to the advent of the multi-die architecture in which the smaller dies (which are easier to produce, resulting in higher yields…

With the rapidly increasing connectivity demands driven by AI/ML and HPC/data center use cases, high-throughput die-to-die connectivity is more essential than ever. Cadence has already demonstrated its 32G UCIe standard package IP subsystem on TSMC’s 3nm (N3P) process technology. To bring even greater flexibility to our mutual customers, Cadence announces that it has taped out its IP subsystem for the 32G UCIe advanced…

A new Cadence success story details how Advanced Layout Solutions (ALS), a UK-based design bureau specializing in high-speed PCBs, developed an efficient workflow that overcame significant design challenges due to increasing complexity in their projects that required higher accuracy and faster design cycles. The company’s expertise spans a range of complex designs in industries where precision and innovation are vital…
