Suchi Semicon Pvt Ltd has officially shipped its first Made-in-India #semiconductor chip to the #US. From breaking ground in October 2023 to reaching this milestone in early 2025, our #OSAT facility has gone from concept to production in less than 18 months. This isn’t just a shipment—it’s a statement. That India can build, test, and ship semiconductor chips from its own soil—that India can be a reliable part of the global semiconductor supply chain. It’s a proud moment. Not just for our team, but for India’s semiconductor ambitions. We still have a long road ahead, but we've taken the first step— and that step has crossed international borders. #semiconductorindustry

Strengthening Semiconductor Manufacturing Practices in India: A Strategic Role for Government, Academia and Industry with The global semiconductor industry is set to exceed $1 trillion by 2030, and India is positioning itself as a crucial player in this strategic domain. With strong policy initiatives like the Semiconductor Mission and growing demand across electronics, automotive, and defense sectors, the time is ripe to build robust capacities in semiconductor manufacturing and design. While infrastructure and investments are vital, the true competitive edge will come from building a skilled workforce. This is where collaboration between government, academia, and industry becomes essential. Current Challenges: • Limited semiconductor fabrication facility within India. • Lack of dedicated training facilities focused on cleanroom operations, wafer fabrication, IC packaging, testing, and design processes. • Talent gap between academic education and industry-ready skills. Strategic Approach for Workforce Development A long-term, coordinated approach is needed to cultivate a talent base. This includes: • Specialized Training Centers: Establish national and regional centers funded by government and supported by academia, dedicated to hands-on training in advanced semiconductor processes. • Public-Private Partnerships: Link training programs with semiconductor companies for real-world exposure and research opportunities. • University Curriculum Upgrades: Introduce semiconductor-specific programs at undergraduate and postgraduate levels alongside short-term vocational certifications. • Faculty Development: Institute global exchange programs for professors and researchers with leading semiconductor hubs like Taiwan, South Korea, and the USA. • Skill Certification Frameworks: Create standardized certifications aligned with international semiconductor industry benchmarks. The Road Ahead: For India to emerge as a global semiconductor hub, scaling up skilled talent pools is equally important as setting up fabs and foundries. Government and academia must jointly lead this mission by creating enduring training centers that tie education to employability and innovation. Semiconductors are the brain of digital transformation, and India's vision of becoming self-reliant will depend on how effectively we build future-ready workforce capabilities. #SemiconductorIndustry #MakeInIndia #DigitalTransformation #SkillDevelopment #SemiconductorManufacturing #FutureOfWork #InnovationInIndia 💬 Loved this?

India’s First 3nm Chips Will Be Designed in Noida! With the inauguration of Renesas Electronics' design centres in Noida and Bengaluru, India is set to design 3nm chips for the first time ever, marking a new benchmark in semiconductor innovation. We’ve done 7nm. We’ve done 5nm. But why does 3nm matter? These chips are not only faster and smarter, but also far more power-efficient, forming the backbone of everything from smartphones to defence systems. Moreover, the fact that India imports over 90% of its semiconductors makes this milestone even more significant. And yet, this isn’t just about chips. This is about India positioning itself as the semiconductor capital of the world. Once viewed as a tech-dependent nation, we are now emerging as a trusted global tech leader.

Acquiring top talent goes hand in hand with effective mentoring to cultivate a world-class team. Recently, I had the privilege of participating in the "Elevate Together: Mentoring Matters" event at Micron India, where I joined a panel discussion with Sriram Akella, Megha Singh and Manjiri Joshi. It was a valuable experience for all involved, as we delved into the intricacies of mentoring, touching on aspects like reverse-mentoring. #mentoring #learning

Join us for the Real Intent Workshop at DVCon U.S. on the Expanding Role of Static Signoff in Functional Verification, with a special focus on glitch detection, connectivity, and security. (Thursday Feb 27th, Donner 11-12:30pm PST, DoubleTree Hotel San Jose) Traditional simulation and formal verification methods rely heavily on boolean analysis, often leading to significant resource demands, slow analysis times, and capacity limitations. In contrast, static signoff employs abstract checking techniques, enabling early functional verification to overcome these limitations. During the workshop, we will demonstrate how Real Intent's static signoff technology delivers effective, efficient, and accurate results for early RTL design and signoff. -> Focus on Glitch Detection We will showcase real-world examples of glitch-induced design failures identified by Real Intent's team, including: - Glitches in asynchronous clock domain paths - Glitches in reset paths - Glitches in synchronous multi-cycle paths - Glitches in power domain crossing paths and isolation signals - Glitches at digital-to-analog interfaces We will analyze each glitch type through detailed block diagrams, illustrating the identification, verification, and resolution processes. -> SafeConnect for Advanced Connectivity Verification - Conditional Connectivity Checking: Validating configurations like padmuxing. - System and Configuration Registers: Validating connectivity and propagation of register values. - Interrupt Verification: Ensuring critical one-to-one connectivity through specific sequential cells. - Power Logic Connectivity: Validating correct power signal connections. - Interconnect Reachability: Ensuring that signals can reach their intended destinations. A standout feature of SafeConnect is its negative testing capability, enabling verification not only of correct connections but also ensuring that certain masters are not connected to specific slaves—a critical aspect often overlooked by other methods. Sentry for Hardware Security Signoff Spectre and Meltdown Mitigation: Sentry detects and addresses speculative execution vulnerabilities in x86, RISC-V, and ARM architectures, ensuring secure processor operation. Hardware Roots of Trust: Validates critical security features, including: Secure Boot: Ensures encrypted and authenticated assets remain protected. Secure Enclave: Guarantees hardware isolation to protect sensitive data from unauthorized access and side-channel attacks. Advanced Encryption Standards (AES) and Crypto Cores: Verifies AES-based cores for secure communications and data protection, ensuring that exposed signals do not compromise security. Sentry redefines hardware security verification, making it an indispensable tool for RTL signoff. Integrating Sentry into your security workflow is key to ensuring robust, reliable design outcomes.
