新思科技革新芯片生命周期管理，引领行业智慧
新思科技 recently unveiled the industry's first silicon lifecycle management (SLM) platform, driven by data analysis, which optimizes SoC from design to final user deployment. This move aims to expand the company's leadership position throughout the design lifecycle.
The SLM platform is closely integrated with new thought's market-leading Fusion Design tools, providing in-depth analysis of key performance, reliability, and security aspects across the entire chip lifecycle.
This offers SoC teams and their customers a fresh perspective on optimizing operations at every stage of device and system lifecycles.
"Like many other business domains today, the semiconductor industry now has an opportunity to further leverage its product and technology experience data to achieve high efficiency throughout the electronic value chain," said Sassine Ghazi, Chief Operating Officer at new thought.
"Based on our core expertise in IC design field, new thought's SLM platform can bring a series of game-changing optimization functions that can be extended to IC design production and deployment across entire lifecycle."
As electronic systems become increasingly complex, maintaining quality and reliability becomes more challenging. Moreover, tolerance for any type of performance degradation is low while meeting functional safety and confidentiality requirements implies that a new method is needed to solve problems related to development running maintenance of silicon-based systems.
Potential benefits in terms of performance improvement power savings are estimated in billions of dollars for critical applications such as data centers networks. To realize such enormous benefits requires managing chips systems through their entire lifecycle ensuring optimal results are always achieved.
According to Richard Wawrzyniak senior market analyst ASIC/SoC at Semico Research Corp., "Solving key issues involving chip performance reliability involves billions-of-dollars investment; it goes beyond tape-out. It needs a whole new approach studying IC design manufacturing usage process."
Having access device data during its entire chip lifetime analyzing these data for continuous feedback optimization would provide more effective solutions addressing quality security challenges faced by companies involved with semiconductors-related industries.
new thought's SLM platform includes complete innovation roadmap over next two years based on two basic principles: collecting as much useful data as possible related each chip analyze those data throughout its life cycle gain actionable insights improving activities associated with chips systems:
First principle implementation embeds sensors into each chip understand how they run measuring target activities under wide range environments conditions.
Second principle applies targeted analytics engines processing available chip data achieving optimizations across semiconductor lifecycle including all processes from designing implementing manufacturing testing debugging field operation etcetera..
