High-speed parallel die-to-die interconnects and composable analog/mixed-signal generator frameworks
Generators are a key component in enabling analog/mixed-signal design automation, reuse, and optimization. Existing generator frameworks suffer from being tightly integrated with commercial tools, having performance limitations, and being difficult to customize to circuits that require different styles of layout. We are developing Substrate, a new framework for writing analog and mixed-signal generators. Substrate offers high performance, strongly-typed APIs, and a wide set of utilities for schematic entry, layout entry, and functional verification. We are aiming to apply Substrate to building components for a UCIe compliant die-to-die serial link between chiplets.
