An Alternative Cost-Effective Design Flow for Mixed-Signal ASICs

There is a well-entrenched and long-held view in the industry that for ASIC design, in the digital, analogue or mixed-signal domain, the only tools that will to deliver a workable solution are those from the major EDA tool companies. The assumption is that low-cost IC design tools will not deliver the required functionality or have the necessary process design kit (PDK) support for the target foundries. lesen...

Maxim has acquired SensorDynamics – an interview with Vice President Demetre Kondylis

Mid of July Maxim has acquired the Austrian fabless MEMS firm SensorDynamics. This company has developed proprietary MEMS sensor integrated circuits, RF and LF ASICs as well as low power ICs. The main intention of this acquisition should be the strategic integration of sensors, analog functionality and wireless connectivity for a new generation of intelligent devices. We asked Demetre Kondylis, Maxim’s Vice President Sensor Solutions for a statement. lesen...
