3D IC Physical Design Workflow
Listen now
Description
One of the challenges of designing 3D IC chips is getting data from different sources in different formats to work together. You also need a solution that allows you to verify different components such as the interposer, the package, and the die together. Siemens solution allows you to combine data from different sources and handle the verification process collectively. Today,  John McMillan interviews Mike Walsh, Technical Applications Engineering Director of the Technical Solutions Sales Team at Siemens Digital EDA. He’ll help understand what a 3D IC physical design workflow might look like. In this episode, you’ll learn about the challenges associated with 3D IC physical design. You’ll also learn about how Siemens solution enables design teams to use data received in different formats. Additionally, you’ll learn why it's important to keep verification in mind early on in the design process. What You Will Learn in this Episode: The challenges faced in the 3D IC physical design phase (01:33)The importance of a design solution that can deal with multiple data formats (03:39)How Siemens helps organizations combine data from different sources in different formats (07:55)The different aspects of 3D IC design flow (12:06) Connect with Mike Wash:  LinkedIn Connect with John McMillan:  LinkedIn See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

One of the best ways to speed-up product development is to integrate test as early as possible in the design cycle. This shift-left strategy becomes even more critical when advanced IC designs evolve from a single die per package to complex systems with multiple dies integrated into a package....

3D IC designs are complex puzzles that engineers have to solve to achieve high performance and reliability. While vertical stacking gives more design options, it also increases the possible number of defective arrangements. There is no one-design-fits-all in 3D IC; engineers must understand their...
