Clearly You’ve Never Been to Singapore

(and Other Adventures in Fish Fry Land)

Fish Fry is coming to you from the beautiful island nation of Singapore this week. We’re checking out the best geeky hotpots this fine country has to offer including a visit to GLOBALFOUNDRIES – the second largest independent semiconductor company in the world, a tour of the Funan Digital Life Mall, and some serious LEGO action at the ScienceArt Museum.

Also this week we’re chatting with Tom Tranter (Avnet) and Wendy Lockhart (Microsemi) about their SpeedWay Design Workshops and we’re giving away an ST Discovery Kit courtesy of Newark element14.

Want early design analysis without simulation?

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Traditional verification methods are failing today's complex IC designs, which require a proactive, early-stage analysis approach. A shift-left methodology addresses IP block integration challenges and the limitations of traditional simulation and ERC tools. Insight Analyzer detects hard-to-find leakage issues across power domains, enabling early analysis without full simulation. Identify inefficiencies earlier to reduce rework, improve reliability, and enhance power performance.
