At Design Automation Conference (DAC) 2023, we unveiled Solido Design Environment (Solido DE) as a comprehensive AI-powered SPICE-level design environment. I invite you to check out our <a href=\"https:\/\/newsroom.sw.siemens.com\/en-US\/solido-design-environment\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">press release<\/a> featuring notable customer testimonials from leading organizations such as SK Hynix, Ametek and others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/58\/2023\/12\/Solido-DE-value-prop-slide-for-Blog1.svg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-869\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.9141104294478528;width:840px;height:auto\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In this blog, we will discuss the disruptive technologies in Solido Design Environment and highlight the key features that make it a standout choice for chip designers. Before we start, I highly recommend delving into this <a href=\"https:\/\/semiwiki.com\/eda\/334732-ai-for-the-design-of-custom-analog-mixed-signal-ics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SemiWiki article<\/a>, which showcases AI capabilities in the design and verification of Custom, Analog Mixed-Signal ICs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Adaptive AI: enabling orders of magnitude faster, production-accurate verification<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Solido\u2019s Adaptive AI technology significantly accelerates the verification process while maintaining production accuracy. This technology utilizes machine learning to adapt and optimize the verification process in real-time, resulting in faster and more accurate results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This technology enables users to achieve 3, 4, 5, 6 and higher target sigma verification in a fraction of runtime compared to brute force verification using PVTMC Verifier and High-Sigma Verifier tools in Solido Design Environment. For higher sigma targets such as 6 sigma and higher, verification is generally not feasible, without a solution like this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Additive Learning: powering up to a 100X boost to existing AI techniques<\/strong><br>Solido Design Environment pushes its capabilities with Additive Learning technology, which is a breakthrough approach to AI in the EDA industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additive Learning technology boosts existing AI providing additional speedups on incremental verification runs, after an initial verification run is completed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Assistive AI: providing 5X-10X productivity boosts<\/strong><br>Design optimization is a critical aspect of chip design, especially as SoC designs get bigger and more complex. Solido Design Environment\u2019s Assistive AI technology accelerates time-to-market by assisting the user in achieving their power, performance, and area specifications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Siemens EDA&#8217;s Solido Design Environment has transformed the custom IC design process by offering a comprehensive AI-powered design environment for SPICE-level design and verification. It serves as a unified solution for both nominal and variation analysis, trusted by thousands of designers who rely on it to create cutting-edge products in high-performance computing, AI, IoT, automotive, and mobile applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out our launch <a href=\"https:\/\/resources.sw.siemens.com\/en-US\/video-executive-video-solido-design-environment?bc=eyJwYWdlIjoiNnduR25ERTVYbmZCaG8waE9hRkFaIiwic2l0ZSI6ImVkYSIsImxvY2FsZSI6ImVuLVVTIn0=&amp;lnc=eyJzbHVnIjoic29saWRvLXZhcmlhdGlvbi1kZXNpZ25lci1sb2NhbC1uYXZpZ2F0aW9uIiwidGl0bGUiOnsidGl0bGUiOiJTb2xpZG8gRGVzaWduIEVudmlyb25tZW50IiwiY2F0ZWdvcnkiOiJTYW1lIFNpdGUiLCJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL2VkYS5zdy5zaWVtZW5zLmNvbS9lbi1VUy9pYy9zb2xpZG8vZGVzaWduLWVudmlyb25tZW50LyIsImNvbnRleHQiOmZhbHNlfSwibG9jYWxlIjoiZW4tVVMifQ==\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">executive video<\/a>, and go through this <a href=\"https:\/\/semiwiki.com\/eda\/334732-ai-for-the-design-of-custom-analog-mixed-signal-ics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SemiWiki article<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Note: If you\u2019re interested in knowing more about Solido Design Environment, check out this executive video by Amit Gupta, VP&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":98995,"featured_media":869,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"spanish_translation":"","french_translation":"","german_translation":"","italian_translation":"","polish_translation":"","japanese_translation":"","chinese_translation":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[311,462,331,326,469,330,302],"industry":[],"product":[],"coauthors":[476],"class_list":["post-868","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-ams-blogs","tag-cicv-blogs","tag-high-sigma-analysis","tag-solido","tag-solido-design-environment","tag-variation-aware-verification","tag-verification-environment"],"featured_image_url":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/58\/2023\/12\/Solido-DE-value-prop-slide-for-Blog1.svg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/cicv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/868","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/cicv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/cicv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/cicv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/98995"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/cicv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=868"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/cicv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/868\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":873,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/cicv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/868\/revisions\/873"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/cicv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/869"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/cicv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=868"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/cicv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=868"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/cicv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=868"},{"taxonomy":"industry","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/cicv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/industry?post=868"},{"taxonomy":"product","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/cicv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product?post=868"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/cicv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=868"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
