Nkhani Zamakampani: Keysight ndi WIN agwirizana kuti achepetse chiopsezo cha kapangidwe ka zida za RF zomwe zimagwiritsa ntchito pafupipafupi

Keysight Technologies Inc ya ku Santa Rosa, CA, USA ndi WIN Semiconductors Corp ya ku Taoyuan City, Taiwan — yomwe imapereka ntchito zopangira ma gallium arsenide (GaAs) ndi gallium nitride (GaN) wafer m'misika yopanda zingwe, zomangamanga ndi ma network — yalengeza za ntchito yolumikizana yopanga ma microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) yomwe imalola nyumba zopangira ma GaN MMIC kuti zikwaniritse bwino ntchito yawo yoyamba. Ntchitoyi imagwirizanitsa kuyerekezera kwa ma multi-domain pa chip, kapangidwe ka 3D ndi kutsimikizira, ndi kapangidwe ka bolodi loyesa la off-chip MMIC kukhala malo amodzi. Imathandizira kuchuluka kwa makampani omwe akupanga ma GaN MMIC a malo oyambira a 5G, malo olowera a Wi-Fi, zolipira za satellite, ndi machitidwe a radar achitetezo.

Kulephera kwa tapeout kungatanthauze kuti pakhala milungu ingapo yotayika chifukwa cha kukonzanso kwa fakitale ina. Njira yatsopanoyi imasintha njira zonse zoyeserera, kukonza bwino, ndi kutsimikizira zomwe zimafunika kuti musayine kapangidwe ka MMIC, kuonetsetsa kuti palibe kusanthula komwe kukuchitika musanapereke kapangidwe kake ku fakitaleyo kuti kapangidwe.

Makasitomala a MMIC sadzadzipereka kugula mpaka atayesa magwiridwe antchito pa bolodi lowunikira lomwe lili ndi MMIC, ma CD, PCB ndi zolumikizira zoyesera. Njira yogwirira ntchito imalola mainjiniya kupanga ndikuwongolera zida izi zomwe zili pa chip ndi off-chip pamodzi, kuti magwiridwe antchito akwaniritse zofunikira monga momwe zatsimikiziridwa ndi zida zoyesera. Popeza msika wapadziko lonse wa zida za GaN RF ukuyembekezeka kufika$2.77 biliyoni pofika chaka cha 2031, nyumba zopangira mapulani za MMIC zomwe sizingatsimikizire kuti zikugwira ntchito bwino pa bolodi lowunikira zili pachiwopsezo chotaya gawo lawo la kukula kumeneko.

Zida zaposachedwa kwambiri za WIN za NP 120P GaN zimapatsa opanga MMIC mwayi wopeza mitundu ya njira ndi malamulo okonzera. Mitundu iyi mkati mwa Keysight Advanced Design System (ADS) ndi RF Circuit Simulation Professional imasintha magwiridwe antchito kuti ikwaniritse MMIC tapeout yoyamba.

“Tikusangalala kugwira ntchito limodzi ndi Keysight kuti tipereke yankho la LVS lopangidwa mwamakonda mkati mwa WIN ADS PDK,” akutero Richard Kuo, mkulu wa ntchito zopanga mapangidwe ku WIN. “Mwa kuphatikiza ukatswiri wa Keysight wa ADS ndi PDK yolimba ya WIN komanso ukadaulo wapamwamba wa njira, tapereka njira yotsimikizira yonse yomwe yathandizira kuti mapangidwe a kasitomala ayende bwino ndikufulumizitsa nthawi yogulitsira zinthu zapamwamba za RF ndi chidaliro chachikulu komanso kudalirika,” akuwonjezera.

"PDK yonse ya WIN, pamodzi ndi zida zoyeserera ndi zotsimikizira za Keysight, zimapatsa opanga njira imodzi kuyambira pakupanga ma chip mpaka bolodi lowunikira," akutero Nilesh Kamdar, manejala wamkulu, EDA, mapulogalamu opanga mapangidwe, Keysight. "Nyumba zopanga mapangidwe tsopano zitha kuwonetsa magwiridwe antchito athunthu asanapangidwe, zomwe zimapatsa makasitomala awo chidaliro chodzipereka."
