The FICS Research Institute (University of Florida) has published a new research paper titled “Secure Physical Design.” This is the first and most comprehensive research work done in this area that ...

As designers move to 65nm technologies and below, the convergence of performance-driven design constraints and yield-driven manufacturing constraints intensifies the demand for new approaches for ...

For the most part, we’ve all been doing integrated circuit (IC) and system-on-chip (SoC) layout the same way for decades. Designers put together the design, be it intellectual property (IP), block, or ...

The mainstream adoption of 3D-IC has become a question mark due to critical challenges ranging from early-stage chip designs to 3D assembly exploration to final design signoff. A new EDA tool claims ...
