Analog integrated circuits (ICs) are used to control and regulate conditions such as temperature, speed, sound, and electrical current. In analog ICs, voltage and current vary continuously at ...

The Calibre DesignEnhancer software, which Siemens EDA unveiled at the Design Automation Conference (DAC) in July 2023, has been incorporated into a process design kit (PDK) of Samsung Foundry. The ...

There has been vast progress over the last 30 years or so in digital layout automation, making it possible to develop complex digital ICs relatively quickly. However, for analog layout, techniques are ...

The level of automation applied to analog design has never approached the level enjoyed by digital designers. For years designers have iterated through schematic entry, physical layout, parasitic ...

In using AI tools to design chips, Samsung is the latest company tossing its hat into the growing arena. The company has apparently harnessed new AI processing tools from the Electronic Design ...

Physical design verification software typically identifies faults in physical layouts by finding design-rule-check (DRC) violations and layout-versus-schematic (LVS) mismatches after layout is ...

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a powerful tool that offers great convenience in many areas of life. In addition to improving Internet searches and online shopping, it enables driver assistance ...
