Analog IC design is a very challenging task as essential information is missing in the early design stages. Because the simulation of larger designs is exceedingly computationally expensive at lower ...

I was out to dinner in Montreal a few weeks ago. As I walked down the four flights of dark, narrow stairs from the restaurant to the street, I stumbled on the last step and fell on my hands and knees.

Cadence is ushering in “the future for custom analog design” with Virtuoso Studio. The San Jose, California-based company said the new platform takes care of many of the challenges its customers face ...

A schematic diagram is not a detailed blueprint of an analog circuit; instead, it’s more like architectural sketch of the circuit. Look at any schematic for a CMOS analog IC circuit and you will see ...

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 ...

Astrus, a Canada-based startup focusing on analog IC design automation, is aspiring to revolutionize the global chip design industry by leveraging recent breakthroughs in artificial intelligence (AI).

Skilled engineers remain the driving force for innovation in chips. But it’s no secret that electronic design automation (EDA) companies are folding AI into more of their offerings to speed up design ...
