For decades, One-Time Programmable (OTP) memory has been viewed as a foundational element of hardware security. Because OTP can be written only once and cannot be modified afterward, it has traditionally been trusted to store cryptographic keys, secure boot code, device identity, and configuration data. Permanence was often… Read More
Curbing Soaring Power Demand Through Foundation IP
Power has become a very hot (ha-ha) topic. The media has latched onto the emergence of massive AI datacenters disrupting energy pricing for consumers. Both as consumers and in industry we welcome faster and better features in our hand-held computing devices, cars, homes, industrial processes and businesses. But without further… Read More
CISCO ASIC Success with Synopsys SLM IPs
How PCIe Multistream Architecture Enables AI Connectivity at 64 GT/s and 128 GT/s
As AI and HPC systems scale to thousands of CPUs, GPUs, and accelerators, interconnect performance increasingly determines end-to-end efficiency. Training and inference pipelines rely on low-latency coordination, high-bandwidth memory transfers, and rapid communication across heterogeneous devices. With model sizes… Read More
WEBINAR: How PCIe Multistream Architecture is Enabling AI Connectivity
In the race to power ever-larger AI models, raw compute is only half the battle. The real challenge lies in moving massive datasets between processors, accelerators, and memory at speeds that keep up with trillion-parameter workloads. Synopsys tackles this head-on with its webinar, How PCIe Multistream Architecture is Enabling… Read More
Chiplets: Powering the Next Generation of AI Systems
AI’s rapid expansion is reshaping semiconductor design. The compute and I/O needs of modern AI workloads have outgrown what traditional SoC scaling can deliver. As monolithic dies approach reticle limits, yields drop and costs rise, while analog and I/O circuits gain little from moving to advanced process nodes. To sustain … Read More
Webinar – IP Design Considerations for Real-Time Edge AI Systems
It is well-known that semiconductor growth is driven by AI. That simple statement breaks down into many complex use cases, each with its own requirements and challenges. A webinar will be presented by Synopsys on October 23 that focuses on the specific requirements for one of the most popular use cases – AI at the edge. The speaker… Read More
Why Choose PCIe 5.0 for Power, Performance and Bandwidth at the Edge?
Synopsys recently held a webinar session on this topic and Gustavo Pimentel, Principal Product Marketing Manager at the company led the webinar session. Going into the webinar session, I found myself wondering: why focus on PCIe 5.0, eight years after its release? With the industry buzzing about Edge AI, cloud computing, and … Read More
AI Everywhere in the Chip Lifecycle: Synopsys at AI Infra Summit 2025
At the AI Infra Summit 2025, Synopsys showed how artificial intelligence has become inseparable from the process of creating advanced silicon. The company’s message was clear: AI is an end-to-end engine that drives every phase of chip development. Three Synopsys leaders illustrated this from distinct vantage points. Godwin… Read More
Synopsys Enables AI Advances with UALink
The evolution of hyperscale data center infrastructure to support the processing of trillions of parameters for large language models has created some rather substantial design challenges. These massive processing facilities must scale to hundreds of thousands of accelerators with highly efficient and fast connections.… Read More
