Alchip’s newly available 3DIC design flow addresses power integration challenges, including static and dynamic IR drop, power noise propagation between the bottom and top die, and different power ...

Taiwan's ASIC and design services sector is showing sharply diverging fortunes in 2026, with new monthly revenue data ...

ASIC design teams face a growing problem. ASIC power-consumption estimates that take place before the design phase lack both scope and credibility. These shortcomings affect process, design, and IP ...

Complex System-on-Chip (SoC) designs are fast becoming commonplace in today’s applications. Hardware designers must overcome many complex and challenging issues regarding cost, time-to-market (TTM), ...

Given the increasing nonrecurring engineering charges and long design schedules associated with deep-submicron standard-cell ASICs, the use of structured ASICs for custom IC design is an increasingly ...

The odds are that if you’ve heard about application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) at all, it’s in the context of cryptocurrency mining. For some currencies, the only way to efficiently mine ...

The Internet of Things (IoT) hype is now getting real. This, in turn, is creating the opportunity to move from off-the-shelf chip designs to custom silicon. The key to creating cost-effective, custom ...

A SIC design isn't for the faint of heart. Success requires expertise, and the challenges increase with the movement to submicron designs. Yet with the complexities of ASIC design, customers will ...

I'm fast approaching the one year mark with my current employer since I graduated last year. Previously, I did three four month work terms with them and they were for the most part interesting. I took ...
