Open-source tools and multi-project wafer (MPW) shuttles democratize chip design for low cost. Small circuits, both analog and digital, are accommodated by embedding them as “tiles” or “clusters” into ...

For decades, the design of leading-edge chips has been a high-wire act—balancing tight deadlines, sophisticated workflows, and the relentless need to consult scattered, often outdated, sources of ...

Paving the way for students, researchers, and startups alike, India’s chip designers can now turn ideas into real silicon using open source tools.

As EDA tools evolve, the resulting products try to increase automation. Unfortunately, the last great advance was from schematics to language-based design starting with the first synthesis tools in ...
