What You Call EDA, I Call IP

EDA Past, Present, and Future with Lucio Lanza
by Amelia Dalton

He’s toiled at this project for years – dreamt about it, laid awake at night thinking about it, and even built a lab in his basement to test it. Eventually he brought in friends (from work mostly) to fill in the missing pieces, and before he knew it they really had something. We all know this story. It has played out time and time again. It’s the story of the startup, and today’s Fish Fry celebrates the men and women who work every day with innovation in their hearts and minds. My distinguished guest is Lucio Lanza, an EDA mentor, venture capitalist, and believer in startup innovation. Lucio is here to explain why funding startups is so crucial in today’s EE ecosystem and where he thinks EDA is headed in the future. Also this week, we check out a brand new way to get that semiconductor quote you’ve been looking for without giving you a headache or breaking your fax machine.

Increase the flexibility of your precision analog designs leveraging a low-cost MSP430™ MCU

Sponsored by Texas Instruments

There are many ways to address performance requirements while reducing the overall cost of your design. People often use dedicated integrated circuits to address specific functions, but this approach can cause variations in cost, complexity, and ease of use. There is another way to unlock the full potential of your design. Read more to see how a programmable MCU provides additional functionality and flexibility that is not typically available with conventional approaches.

Cadence Celsius Thermal Solver

Sponsored by Cadence Design Systems

Electrical-thermal co-simulation can dramatically improve the system design process, allowing thermal design adaptation to be done much earlier. The Cadence Celsius Thermal Solver is a complete electrical-thermal co-simulation solution for the full hierarchy of electronic systems from ICs to physical enclosures. In this episode of Chalk Talk, Amelia Dalton chats with CT Kao of Cadence Design Systems about how the Celsius Thermal Solver can help detect and mitigate thermal issues early in the design process.
