As integrated circuit (IC) designs have grown in complexity, scale and speed requirements, design rule checking (DRC) has evolved from a routine step into a critical pillar of successful tapeouts.

As the complexity of IC designs continues to grow, moving critical checks earlier in the design cycle helps designers identify and resolve issues before they escalate, streamlining the overall ...

Process design kits (PDKs) play an essential in ensuring that silicon technology can proceed from one generation to the next in a manner that design tools can keep up with. No such infrastructure has ...

SAN DIEGO, Dec. 21, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GBT Technologies Inc. (GTCH) (OTC PINK: GTCH) ("GBT” or the “Company”), received a notice of publication for its nonprovisional patent application for ...

Analysts estimate that the global market for semiconductors will exceed $600 billion in 2025 and hit the $1 trillion mark by 2030, suggesting a CAGR of over 8%. It’s no surprise that the drivers ...

The urgency for change: Are traditional DRC debug flows enough? Physical verification engineers know all too well the reality of debugging massive integrated circuit (IC) designs. For years, the ...

The semiconductor industry is at a pivotal moment as the limits of Moore’s Law motivate a transition to three-dimensional integrated circuit (3D IC) technology. By vertically integrating multiple ...
