In the analog/mixed-signal (AMS) arena, automated design of advanced ICs has long remained an objective rather than a reality. For the AMS design expert, automated tools have too often seemed to ...

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 ...

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 ...

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.

MUNICH--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: CDNS) today introduced the Cadence ® Legato™ Reliability Solution, the industry’s first software product that meets the challenges of ...

When it comes to learning digital system design, hobbyists and students have a lot of options, whether it’s tinkering with field-programmable gate arrays or working up chip submission for a Tiny ...

Digital circuit design is largely automated today, but most analog components still are designed manually. This may change soon. As analog design grows increasingly complex and error-prone, design ...

Electromagnetic interference (EMI) poses a critical challenge in the design of analogue integrated circuits, where the growing density of components and higher operating frequencies lead to increased ...

A recent Semiconductor Intelligence Newsletter reviewed the present lineup of analog semiconductor companies. The newsletter said that one of the current changes involved Renesas Electronics’ ...
