Deliver Better, Faster, Cheaper Semiconductors with DSO.ai

With the early 2020 launch of DSO.ai™ (Design Space Optimization AI), Synopsys ushered in a new era of breakthrough chip design to deliver better, faster, and cheaper semiconductors. The industry’s first autonomous artificial intelligence (AI) application for chip design, DSO.ai searches for optimization targets in very large solution spaces of chip design, utilizing reinforcement learning to enhance power, performance, and area. By massively scaling exploration of design workflow options while automating less consequential decisions, the award-winning DSO.ai drives higher engineering productivity while swiftly delivering results that you could previously only imagine.

In our design environment, Synopsys' DSO.ai systematically found optimal solutions that exceeded our previously achieved power-performance-area results. Furthermore, DSO.ai was able to achieve these results in as few as 3 days; a process that typically takes multiple experts over a month of experimentation. This AI-driven design methodology will enable Samsung Foundry customers to fully utilize the benefits of our cutting-edge silicon technologies for their SOC designs.

Renesas

Our collaboration with Synopsys on DSO.ai exemplifies how AI can lead to disruptive design solutions, revolutionizing the way we design automotive products. We expect that DSO.ai will identify better PPA solutions, and going forward, we are excited to expand our collaboration with Synopsys to unlock higher productivity for our design teams.
