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 ...

Gigabit line cards are being tasked with accommodating a plethora of physical-layer transceivers, ranging from octal-type Fast Ethernet versions to copper- and fiber-based Gigabit Ethernet ...

The estimated revenue of Taiwan's IC design industry in 2022 totalled at a commanding US$40 billion. The sector has proven itself to be eminently high-yielding with an enviable average profit margin ...

In the realm of high-performance IC (integrated circuit) design, symmetry is not just an aesthetic preference—it’s a critical factor for ensuring proper device functionality, especially in analog and ...

Taiwan is an important hub of the global information and communication technology (ICT) industry. The development of the ICT supply chain is supported by Taiwan's complete semiconductor ecosystem.

High level synthesis software provides an efficient path from algorithm concept to silicon, while slashing IC power consumption. In today's designs, application-specific integrated circuits (ASIC) and ...

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 ...

The history of electronic design has been defined by repeated waves of major technological change and accompanying business realignment. Many companies have foundered and disappeared when they were ...

For circuit simulation, we have always been enthralled with the Falstad simulator which is a simple, Spice-like simulator that runs in the browser. [Brandon] has a simulator, too, but it simulates ...
