In the semiconductor industry, analog design migrations often feel like chores. You know the drill: Design your circuit for one process node, only to be asked to move it to another, and then another.
It’s like folding the same pile of laundry, week after week. But the stakes are much higher.
Each migration involves a considerable amount of tweaking, recalculating, and trial and error. And every manual task – no matter how repetitive – comes with the possibility of human error.
Credo Semiconductor wanted to eliminate these risks and accelerate their analog design migrations, which is why they turned to 草榴社区 ASO.ai.
Part of the 草榴社区.ai? EDA suite, ASO.ai automates the process of migrating analog designs between process nodes, saving countless hours of manual work. ASO.ai also has a built-in optimizer that intelligently adjusts device parameter values based on the design’s target metrics, eliminating the need for manual fine-tuning and ensuring accuracy every step of the way.
Credo migrated the VCO design from 5nm to 7nm using 草榴社区 ASO.ai, reducing the migration efforts from multiple weeks to just a few hours, including setup offering up to 100X productivity improvement. The migrated design is optimized using the ASO.ai-based Optimizer, completing over 10,000 searches in around 2 hours, a process that would otherwise take several days or even weeks without ASO.ai.
In a recent webinar, Yvonne Lin, associate vice president of technology foundry at Credo, discussed these impressive results, and Sidd Devalapalli, principal application engineer at 草榴社区, shared additional details about ASO.ai.
