1.
Early Anomaly Detection in Microchips
Traditional IR drop analysis struggles to balance accuracy, speed, and scalability. Full-chip simulations can take days to weeks, scaling cubically with circuit size, while sometimes missing worst-case voltage scenarios, a problem that worsens as transistors shrink.
H-DES simulates complex multi-physics phenomena at the nanoscale using a hybrid quantum-classical approach, enabling early detection of voltage and reliability anomalies while keeping classical methods for overall analysis.
