Intel stock spikes after report of possible US government stake
Investing.com -- Siemens (ETR:SIEGn) Digital Industries Software (ETR:SOWGn) revealed its AI-enhanced toolset for the electronic design automation (EDA) flow at the 2025 Design Automation Conference. The company is showcasing how artificial intelligence can improve productivity and accelerate time to market for the EDA industry.
The new EDA AI system is specifically designed for semiconductor and printed circuit board (PCB) design environments, delivering secure generative and agentic AI capabilities with customization options that integrate across the entire EDA workflow.
Mike Ellow, CEO of Siemens EDA, stated, "We are strategically investing in developing sophisticated industrial-grade AI solutions purpose-built for the unique complexities of EDA. This accumulated expertise forms the technological foundation that empowers our customers to bring breakthrough semiconductor and PCB designs to market faster than ever before."
The system allows customers to integrate their own EDA data and create custom workflows using advanced AI. It offers enterprise-grade security, customizable access control, and flexible deployment options including on-premises or cloud solutions, providing data protection within customers’ secure data centers.
Siemens’ EDA AI system supports NVIDIA (NASDAQ:NVDA) NIM microservices and NVIDIA Llama Nemotron models. NVIDIA NIM enables scalable deployment of inference-ready models across environments, while Llama Nemotron adds high context reasoning and tool-calling for automation across the EDA workflow.
Tim Costa, senior director of CAE (NYSE:CAE) and CUDA-X at NVIDIA, said, "AI agents can dramatically boost productivity for complex electronic design automation to support engineers across layout optimization, simulation and verification, freeing engineers to focus on creative problem-solving and advanced design challenges."
The AI capabilities extend across the Siemens EDA portfolio, including Aprisa AI software, which delivers 10x productivity, 3x faster time to tapeout, and 10 percent better power/performance/area for digital designs. Calibre Vision AI helps design teams identify and fix critical design violations in half the time of existing methods. Solido now uses Siemens’ EDA AI system to deliver advanced generative and agentic AI capabilities throughout the Solido Custom IC platform.
Siemens’ EDA AI system is currently available for early access across the Siemens EDA portfolio. Siemens Digital Industries Software helps organizations digitally transform using software, hardware, and services from the Siemens Xcelerator business platform.
