Everything is Fair in Love and EDA

Bruggeman Exits Cadence and Forte Makes a Claim for High Level Synthesis
by Amelia Dalton

In this week’s Fish Fry, I interview Sean Dart (Forte Design Systems CEO) about where he sees the future of SoC design and how high level synthesis will play a part in the years to come. 

I also try to sort through the details of John Bruggeman’s recent departure from Cadence Design Systems as Chief Marketing Officer and investigate how this shift will affect the future of Cadence’s EDA360 manifesto.

I have a DE0-Nano Development Board to give out this week, but you’ll have to tune in to find out how to win.

MaxLinear Integrates Analog & Digital Design in One Chip with Cadence 3D Solvers

Sponsored by Cadence Design Systems

MaxLinear has the unique capability of integrating analog and digital design on the same chip. Because of this, the team developed some interesting technology in the communication space. In the optical infrastructure domain, they created the first fully integrated 5nm CMOS PAM4 DSP. All their products solve critical communication and high-frequency analysis challenges.

Learn more about how MaxLinear is using Cadence’s Clarity 3D Solver and EMX Planar 3D Solver in their design process.

Maximizing High Power Density and Efficiency in EV-Charging Applications
Sponsored by Mouser Electronics and Infineon
In this episode of Chalk Talk, Amelia Dalton and Daniel Dalpiaz from Infineon talk about trends in the greater electrical vehicle charging landscape, typical block diagram components, and tradeoffs between discrete devices versus power modules. They also discuss choices between IGBT’s and Silicon Carbide, the advantages of advanced packaging techniques in both power discrete and power module solutions, and how reliability is increasingly important due to demands for more charging cycles per day.
