Synopsys (SNPS) & TSMC to Advance Multi-Die System Design
Read MoreHide Full Article
Synopsys (SNPS - Free Report) has collaborated with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (“TSMC") to facilitate the advancement of multi-die system designs using TSMC's 3DFabric technologies and the latest 3Dblox 2.0 standard.
The Synopsys Multi-Die System solution features TSMC-certified 3DIC Compiler. Notably, 3DIC Compiler is a unified exploration-to-signoff platform that enables the entire process of designing an integrated circuit. It helps designers in the entire process that starts from conceptualization to the approval and finally the fabrication of the design.
This advancement allows customers to fast-track the system design process, from early architectural considerations to manufacturing. They can now explore, analyze and approve multi-die system designs within a unified platform using the 3Dblox 2.0 standard.
3Dblox 2.0 enables designers to evaluate power and thermal aspects early in the design phase, so the design flaws can be resolved early, while improving design efficiency. The efficiency can further be optimized with chiplet design reuse feature included in 3Dblox 2.0.
Additionally, customers can utilize Synopsys Universal Chiplet Interconnect Express (UCIe) PHY Internet Protocol (IP), which achieved first-pass silicon success on TSMC N3E and comes with UCIe IP solution, PHY component and verification IP. The PHY component offers high-bandwidth, low-power and low-latency connectivity between dies within a package.
The collective strength of these features ensures the dependability of multi-die systems, even during the in-field use.
This collaboration is the result of the long-standing partnership between SNPS and TSMC. This year also saw the deployment of the Radio Frequency design flow for TSMC's N6RF process by Synopsys, followed by the announcement of TSMC-certified digital and analog designs for the N2 process in September 2023. Additionally, the company introduced automotive-grade IP for TSMC's N5A Process prior to these developments.
Synopsys has been benefiting from strong design wins due to its robust product portfolio that also includes its Electronic Design Solution (EDA) and Fusion Compiler, a key component in efficient chip design.
Many companies, including Juniper Networks, Realtek, Teradici, NetLogic Microsystems, Toshiba and Wolfson, have selected Synopsys as the primary EDA partner. Additionally, Fusion Compiler has been deployed at important nodes, such as TSMC N2, TSMC N5A, Samsung SF3 and Intel 18A.
Some other top-ranked stocks from the broader Computer and Technology sector are NVIDIA Corporation (NVDA - Free Report) , Asure Software (ASUR - Free Report) and Dell Technologies (DELL - Free Report) , each sporting a Zacks Rank #1 at present.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for NVIDIA's third-quarter fiscal 2024 earnings has been revised upward by 8 cents to $3.32 per share in the past 30 days. For fiscal 2024, earnings estimates have increased by 21 cents to $10.67 per share in the past 30 days.
NVIDIA’s earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate thrice in the preceding four quarters while missing on one occasion, the average surprise being 9.8%. Shares of NVDA have surged 190.6% year to date.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Asure Software’s third-quarter 2023 earnings has been revised to a penny northward to 6 cents per share over the past 30 days. For 2023, earnings estimates have moved 3 cents north to 54 cents per share in the past 30 days.
Asure's earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate in each of the preceding four quarters, the average surprise being 676.4%. Shares of ASUR have lost 0.9% year to date.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Dell’s third-quarter 2024 earnings has been revised 11 cents upward to $1.47 per share over the past 30 days. For Fiscal Year 2024, earnings estimates have moved 74 cents north to $6.30 per share in the past 30 days.
DELL’s earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate in each of the preceding four quarters, the average surprise being 39.5%. Shares of DELL have rallied 73% year to date.
