Recently filed patent applications of Synopsys, Inc. in USPTO?

Publication number: US20220189973A1
Application number: 17/544,583

Abstract:
A one-transistor (1T) one-time programmable (OTP) anti-fuse bitcell is provided. The 1T OTP anti-fuse bitcell includes a gate, a diffusion region including at least two sub-regions, and a gate oxide region located between the gate and the diffusion region, the gate oxide region including a thin gate oxide region and a thick gate oxide region.

Publication number: US20220066909A1
Application number: 17/454,589

Abstract:
A process is disclosed to identify the minimal set of sequential and combinational signals needed to fully reconstruct the combinational layout after emulation is complete. A minimal subset of sequential and combinational elements is output from the emulator to maximize the emulator speed and limit the utilization of emulator resources, e.g., FPGA resources. An efficient reconstruction of combinational waveforms or SAIF data is performed using a parallel computing grid.

Publication number: US20220146945A1
Application number: 17/522,574

Abstract:
In some aspects, a mask pattern is accessed. The mask pattern is for use in a lithography process that prints a pattern on a wafer. The mask pattern is applied as input to a deterministic model of the lithography process to predict a characteristic of the printed pattern. The deterministic model is deterministic, but it accounts for local stochastic variations of the characteristic in the printed pattern.
