WEBINAR: Cut down EDA License cost by 25% with Stratos AI Nitro

Source: https://semiwiki.com/semiconductor-services/375289-webinar-cut-down-eda-license-cost-by-25-with-stratos-ai-nitro/ Expensive EDA licenses should keep chip design moving. Yet when license activity and job queues live in separate systems, teams can struggle to understand why work is waiting, which tools are underused, and whether additional spending will solve the problem. Idle seats, checkout failures,

Why America’s Semiconductor Manufacturing Capacity Matters

Source: https://semiwiki.com/semiconductor-manufacturers/375206-why-americas-semiconductor-manufacturing-capacity-matters/ America’s semiconductor future will be shaped by its ability to turn scientific discoveries into chips manufactured at scale. That is why the investments outlined in Intel Foundry’s recent editorial matter beyond the company’s own business. They address a fundamental question: whether

Arteris FlexGen Opens Up Multi-Die Traffic Management for Non-Coherent Networks

Source: https://semiwiki.com/ip/arteris/374391-arteris-flexgen-opens-up-multi-die-traffic-management-for-non-coherent-networks/ Last year I wrote about Arteris’ introduction of multi-die support for coherent NoCs. This is a very big deal because hyperscalers and OEMs are now building large systems that depend on multi-chiplet architectures and require efficient traffic management between chiplets, in one case
