Synopsys, Inc. today announced TSMC's certification of the IC Compiler™ II place and route solution on TSMC's 16-nm FinFET Plus (16FF+) process. Synopsys' IC Compiler II is the successor to IC Compiler, the industry's widely adopted place and route solution for advanced designs at both established and emerging nodes.
Researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have developed a novel method for creating nanofibers that boosts the production rate significantly, and at the same time reduces energy usage by over 90%.
Researchers at the Department of Electronic Engineering of the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC) have obtained a record efficiency of 22% by creating silicon solar cells that incorporate a surface treatment called black silicon on the front of the cell. This technique nanostructures the surface with a dry chemical attack that results in small conical tips at the nanometric scale.
Cadence Design Systems, Inc. today announced that its implementation and signoff tools have achieved certification on the Intel® 14nm process for customers of Intel Custom Foundry. Intel Custom Foundry utilized a PowerVR Series6 GPU from Imagination Technologies as part of the certification process.
Open-Silicon, an ASIC solutions provider, today announced it will demonstrate the company's Industrial IoT ASIC Platform, 28Gbps SerDes Evaluation Platform, 2.5D SoC Solution and HMC 2.0 Memory Controller IP at DAC (Jun 8-11, 2015- San Francisco, CA). Open-Silicon is also presenting several posters on "Advance ASIC Solutions" on Low Power Methodology, Connectivity Verification, Validation and High Speed SerDes Integration.
Hamamatsu Photonics K.K., one of the world’s leading producers of photodetectors and imagers today announced that it has licensed certain Arradiance intellectual property for Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) nanofilms. This revolutionary technology, the subject of 11 issued US patents and several pending US and worldwide patents, is a foundational technology for next generation photomultiplier tubes (PMT) in use at several high energy physics installations worldwide.
Synopsys, Inc. today announced Intel Custom Foundry's certification of digital and custom implementation tools from the Synopsys Galaxy™ Design Platform for Intel's 14-nanometer (nm) tri-gate process technology. The certification enables customers of Intel Custom Foundry to realize predictability in design closure while taking advantage of the power and performance benefits of the 14-nm tri-gate process.
The world's smallest continuous spirals have been created at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee. The spirals react in a unique way to polarized infrared light, which makes them very hard to counterfeit - this property could be used to prevent counterfeiting of currency, credit cards, or ID cards.
TowerJazz, the global specialty foundry leader, and TowerJazz Panasonic Semiconductor Co., Ltd. (TPSCo) – a newly established company by Panasonic Corporation of which Tower Semiconductor Ltd. acquired 51%, and Synopsys, Inc., a global leader in electronic design automation (EDA) and semiconductor IP, today announced that they have qualified a 65 nanometer (nm) CMOS image sensor (CIS) interoperable process design kit (iPDK) to allow customers to design and develop new products using Synopsys’ custom design solution.
Ultratech, Inc., a leading supplier of lithography, laser processing and inspection systems used to manufacture semiconductor devices and highbrightness LEDs (HB LEDs), as well as atomic layer deposition (ALD) systems, announced that its Cambridge NanoTech business unit Ultratech-CNT has delivered a new, second-generation production tool, the Phoenix G2 Batch ALD system to a major Japanese manufacturer.
