    The State of Multi-Die Testing: Essential Insights for Designers

    Play Episode Listen Later May 30, 2025 26:05


    The semiconductor industry is undergoing a shift with the rapid adoption of multi-die design, driven by the promise of improved power, performance, and area (PPA). But with innovation comes complexity, and one of the biggest challenges is ensuring silicon reliability and health through effective multi-die testing.In this episode, we dive deep into the world of multi-die design for test: what it means, how it differs from traditional monolithic design testing, and why it's critical for the future of semiconductor manufacturing. Learn how testing spans from individual dies to multiple dies to die-to-die links, and why silicon data is essential for maintaining multi-die health during both manufacturing and in-field operations. We will explore the future of multi-die design for test and discuss Silicon Lifecycle Management (SLM) strategies that designers can implement today to stay ahead.

    There is a lot of hype in the industry around AI, but behind the hype there is the reality. That reality is that AI really is impacting virtually every aspect of semiconductor design. However, its not as simple as taking general purpose AI solutions and hoping they work for EDA, the risks are too high and when dealing with parts per billion (or trillion) in acceptable errors, hallucinations are not acceptable. What is needed are Verifiable AI solutions that deliver results that users can trust and that reduce the overall resources needed to complete a task. At Siemens EDA we have been able to leverage Verifiable AI to accelerate virtually every aspect of the design and verification process.

    ue to today's connected world, a high volume of valuable data, susceptible to tampering and physical attacks, is processed, stored, and moved between devices, cars, and data centers. With each connected device comes more data to process and ultimately secure through various interfaces and systems to the cloud. Security is on center stage in the semiconductor industry, and all interfaces and data that move across them need to be secure. Even if all the base-level protocols and standards are met, designers must ensure that the entire SoC is protected. Additionally, as technology evolves (such as quantum computing), so do the threats and ways to attack systems, requiring increasingly reliable, resilient security solutions across the board that will be needed worldwide. Synopsys considers security an integral part of design architecture, not an afterthought.In this podcast, we will discuss the fundamentals of securing interfaces and how Synopsys' Secure Interfaces allows designers to quickly implement the highest levels of security in their SoCs on every link while complying with the latest standards requirements, with low risk and quick time-to-market.
