Cognichip says AI completed chip front-end evaluation in 10 days
Image: Primary Cognichip says its ACI chip-design platform completed a customer evaluation in 10 days with one engineer, compared with approximately 20 weeks for a conventional front-end team. In an interview with Tom's Hardware, the company said the system generated hardware logic, created tests and corrected errors, achieving over 90% UVM verification coverage.
The unnamed customer supplied a detailed 55-page microarchitecture specification. Cognichip did not disclose the design's complexity, limiting comparisons with other engineering projects.
ACI automates logic development and verification but does not perform physical implementation. Placement, routing and manufacturing signoff still require conventional design tools; the reported acceleration does not cover the entire chip development process.
