RTL-to-GDSII full-chip — 150M instances
Turnkey hierarchical PnR for an AI inference SoC across 26 partitions, 8 hardened IPs, 596 clock domains. MCMM/POCV STA sign-off, EM-...

VNCHIP delivered complete turnkey physical implementation from RTL synthesis to tape-out GDSII for a massive 150M-instance AI inference SoC on TSMC N16 FinFET (16nm) technology.

Key Technical Metrics:

  • Die Size: ~15 x 18 mm
  • Partitions: 26 hierarchical partitions with 8 hardened IP macros
  • Clock Domains: 596 asynchronous and synchronous clock domains
  • Frequencies: 1.0 GHz core / 1.2 GHz DDR interface
  • Signoff Checks: MCMM / POCV STA timing closure, Full EM/IR sign-off, DRC/LVS clean verification

Our engineering team addressed severe cross-talk noise and electromigration constraints through customized clock tree synthesis (CTS) topologies and automated power mesh optimization.
