Recently, Magma’s Rajeev Madhavan gave an interview in which he said “I believe that within five years only two EDA companies will survive. We will therefore be one of these two big companies, or we will have been bought by …

As an abstract description you can consider each power distribution network to be mesh-like, of varying sparsity, with voltage sources from external to the chip connecting at some (peripheral or distributed) locations on higher level metal layers, and with transistor …

To ensure silicon success, voltage drop analysis tools - like all EDA tools - must at their most detailed give results that precisely predict final silicon behavior. Yet for much of the design process the chip is in an incomplete …
