Daniel Cross of Cadence Wins Si2 Pinnacle Award

ROUND ROCK, TEXAS, August 23, 2024 -- Daniel Cross, senior principal solutions engineer at Cadence Design Systems, has been honored with the quarterly Silicon Integration InitiativePinnacle Award, recognizing volunteers for professional contributions to Si2's success as a leading semiconductor research and development joint venture.

 

Cross was recognized for supporting the Si2 Unified Power Program, a collaborative environment that improves and extends solutions for the IEEE 2416 Unified Power Model standard, which delivers powerful, flexible modeling for IP and system-level design.

 

Cross is an active member of the Si2 Unified Power Model Working Group, the Si2 Unified Power and Thermal Coalition, and the IEEE 2416 Working Group.  

 

“In 2022, Daniel led an effort by the Si2 UPM Working group to implement a 'killer app' for power modeling," said Leigh Anne Clevenger, vice president of engineering. "This app would use a single model to represent and analyze power for an analog, mixed-signal system. He guided the team step by step to build this functionality into both UPM and IEEE 2416, the industry's power modeling standard for enabling system-level analysis."

 

Si2 members participate in and benefit from the co-development of system-level power models, utilities, and methodologies supporting the IEEE 2416 UPM standard.

 

Cross holds MSECE and BSEE degrees from the University of Miami and has 30 years of experience in RF and analog circuit design. He joined Cadence in 2019 and has championed the application of Real Modeling and advanced verification methodologies to mixed-signal designs. He is a senior member of the IEEE.

 

About the Silicon Integration Initiative (Si2)

 

Si2 provides collaborative technology and services that enable advanced semiconductor design integration, leading to industry-accepted standards. Si2 offers these standards,

technology, and services to all interested organizations and individuals at a fair and reasonable cost.

 

Si2 grew out of the CAD Frameworks Initiative, which began in 1988. It is a nonprofit R&D joint venture funded by member companies. Engineers from over 60 design, EDA supplier, or foundry member companies utilize Si2's collective environment. Engineers from member companies work with academic partners to co-develop solutions that permit innovation while guaranteeing compatibility.
