Big Industry Engagement to Benefit HEP: Microelectronics Support from Large CAD Companies

Physics and Society 2022-03-18 v1

Abstract

Microelectronics development is critical to a wide number of DOE projects and mission space. Creating Helpful Incentives to Produce Semiconductors (CHIPS) and manufacturing Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASIC) are important to DOE, so the infrastructure that allows DOE to carry out its mission needs to exist. This paper discusses the current initiatives and recommends a business model to build an ecosystem for microelectronics design for DOE which includes three main building blocks: the Computer Aided Design (CAD) - Electronic Design Automation (EDA) design tools, basic design IPs, and access to semiconductor fabrication facilities.
