automates full-wafer regression testing overnight
You spend your days running characterization scripts on silicon wafers and debugging signal integrity. Your existence is just an expensive filter for bugs the compiler could find.
The one thing AI can't do
You can still physically troubleshoot why the test bench power supply keeps tripping.
Your enemy, your name, your date. Post it.
Step by step, from the first quiet change to Deprecation Day.
Day 10
Your manual Python regression scripts are ingested by our pattern-matching inference engine.
Month 5
Digital twins of your silicon prototypes render physical oscilloscopes redundant through predictive waveform analysis.
Month 10
The system identifies logic faults and suggests mask changes without requiring your interpretative dance.
Month 16
Environmental stress testing runs in the cloud at ten thousand times real-time speed.
Month 22 · D-Day
You are invited to surrender your security badge as the chip design cycle closes itself.
What you cost, what the machine costs, and what you get on the way out.
