Researchers at Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH) have developed an artificial intelligence approach that addresses a key bottleneck in analog semiconductor layout design, a process ...

Chung-Kuan Cheng received a Ph.D. degree inelectrical engineering and computer sciences from University ofCalifornia, Berkeley in 1984. From 1984 to 1986 he was a senior CADengineer at Advanced Micro ...

Once upon a time, integrated circuits (ICs) were built by the same companies that designed them. The design of an IC was tightly integrated with the manufacturing processes available within each ...

Process design kits consist of a set of files that typically contain descriptions of the basic building blocks of the process. They are expressed, algorithmically, as Pcells. These descriptions are ...

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 ...

In an effort to make your production line more efficient, look at the different ways to lay out the production line or overall manufacturing plant. Two of the most common layouts are the process ...

The fact is that analog design is the most difficult and detailed kind of electronic design. The scope of variables to be managed, the extreme sensitivities to circuit constraints, and the quality of ...

When owners come to us for parking systems to generate revenue & control access, we’re frequently asked, “How should we layout our parking spaces?” While that may seem like a simple question, there ...
