Welcome to our very first episode! Because podcasting is becoming an essential part of any business’s marketing toolbox, we thought it would be great to kick it off with a basic discussion about ways to market your company in this competitive industry. To do that, we tapped into Joe Cestari, Executive Director of our community […]

In early April, Gabriele Saucier kicked off Design & Reuse’s IPSoC Silicon Valley 2021 Conference. IPSoC conference as the name suggests is dedicated to semiconductor intellectual property (IP) and IP-based electronic systems. There were a number of excellent presentations at the conference. The presentations had been… Read More The post Enabling Next Generation Silicon In […]

When I started in EDA the big three were Daisy, Mentor and Valid (DMV as we called them). Then came Synopsys in 1986 followed by Cadence, which was a clever merger between ECAD (Dracula DRC) and Solomon Design. Daisey and Valid were pushed aside and then there were, “Three dogs hovering over one bowl of […]
