Nvidia to Accelerate Siemens EDA Tools Using its GPUs
Nvidia Accelerates Siemens EDA Tools with GPU Power Chip design just got a serious speed boost. At CES 2026, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang announced a strategic collaboration with Siemens to optimize its electronic design automation (EDA) software for Nvidia GPUs. The move aims to slash simulation times, accelerate verification, and enable full-system digital twins—critical capabilities as semiconductor complexity skyrockets. For engineers racing to design next-gen chips for AI, automotive, and data centers, this partnership could dramatically shorten time-to-market while cutting computational costs. Credit: YouTube Why GPU-Accelerated EDA Matters ow More Than Ever Electronic design automation tools are the unsung heroes behind every modern chip—from smartphone processors to AI accelerators. But as transistor counts swell into the billions and process nodes shrink below 3nm, traditional CPU-based EDA workflows are buckling under the strain. Running full-chip simulations can take days or even we…
