Automation

Semiconductor LSIs are becoming even more important as core technologies.

For example, the ICs currently used in automobiles are diverse, such as sensors, cameras, power, communications, ECUs, and memories, and further sensing and control technologies are required for autonomous driving in the future.

204 Electronic Devices

In addition, IoT is being used in all fields such as agriculture, logistics, transportation, construction, housing, by improving communication technology suitable for applications such as low power consumption LSI and LPWA / 5G, enhancing the cloud environment, and improving analytical power using AI. Also, LSIs with edge sensing and analog technology are required for many purposes.

Furthermore, AI and machine learning technologies, which have been put into practical use in recent years, are advancing methods for low consumption, low cost, and low memory capacity. As a result, it is expected to be applied to all edge parts such as IoT and in-vehicle, and to innovate sensing and interfaces.

Among these LSIs, mixed signals, memories, powers, display devices, etc. have a large analog portion using transistor characteristics, so they are mainly designed by hand. The delay in design automation compared to digital SoCs will be a further bottleneck in the future.

Jedat aims for automated design and high-speed, high-precision analysis technology for these devices.
