Typical 3D thermal simulation of electronics components assumes that all the power consumption the data sheets define is dissipated in the semiconductor. In the case of high current power modules, ...

Cadence Design Systems is striking back against Synopsys with a new software tool that speeds up simulations that help engineers test new semiconductor blueprints before moving onto production. The ...

Today, clean power is a key concern. Switch-mode power supply (SMPS) makers strive to ensure their designs offer power that's as clean as possible. Many designs fail as a result of the inability to ...

My research projects in the area of nonlinear systems deal with finding dc operating points, steady state, and transient responses of electronic circuits. These are essential tasks in electrical ...

Many aspects of semiconductor design and verification have an ever-growing “need for speed” that has outpaced the performance improvements available by running on CPUs. Electronic design automation ...

The original circuit simulation software, called the Simulation Program with Integrated Circuit Emphasis, or SPICE as it is more commonly known, was originally developed at the University of ...

I took a Computer Logic Design class in college, so when I stumbled upon the Ksimus Circuit Simulator, I was intrigued. At the risk of waxing nostalgic, I remember what it was like to build circuits ...
