Design of power/driver ICs in compliance with latchup qualification requirements involves a conceptually different approach in comparison with digital LV (low voltage) ICs. The LV ICs’ electrostatic ...

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 landscape of IC design is experiencing a profound transformation. With the physical and economic limits of conventional two-dimensional scaling, the industry is rapidly embracing three-dimensional ...

The right tool for the job makes all the difference. Ever try hammering a nail in with a rock? How many nails did you ruin before you gave up? Or try to tighten a crucial bolt by hand? It takes ...

2.5D/3D integrated circuits (ICs) have evolved into an innovative solution for many IC design and integration challenges. As shown in figure 1, 2.5D ICs have multiple dies placed side-by-side on a ...

The strengths of Taiwan's IC design sector include excellent and dedicated STEM talent, a complete semiconductor industry ecosystem from upstream to downstream, and a well-developed downstream ICT ...
