Multiyear simulation software agreement supports
India’s growing power electronics and semiconductor ecosystem
Mumbai : L&T Semiconductor Technologies Ltd (LTSCT), a leading Indian
fabless semiconductor company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Larsen &
Toubro (L&T), today announced a multiyear license agreement with Synopsys
Inc., a leader in engineering solutions from silicon to systems, to strengthen
its advanced power electronics design capabilities and support India’s growing
semiconductor ecosystem.
Under the multiyear agreement, LTSCT will adopt
Synopsys’ simulation software to accelerate AI-enabled design and optimisation
of next-generation power modules and intelligent power modules (IPMs). The
collaboration is expected to enhance design efficiency, improve reliability and
reduce development cycles by integrating simulation, physics-based modelling
and data intelligence across the design workflow.
“The agreement with Synopsys is a pivotal step
toward accelerating next-generation power solutions, designed and optimised
through AI-driven multiphysics simulation. This collaboration enables LTSCT to
design at the chip, package and system levels seamlessly. It will thereby
enhance reliability, reduce development cycles and accelerate our time to
market. Together, we are shaping a new paradigm in power electronics, one where
intelligence, performance and sustainability converge”, said Sandeep Kumar, Chief Executive - LTSCT.
The agreement enables LTSCT to leverage Synopsys’
multiphysics simulation technologies to enhance its design workflows across
chip, package and system levels. As voltage levels scale from 1.2 kV to 10 kV,
accelerating development timelines while ensuring design for reliability and
design for manufacturing requires advanced modelling that integrates material
science, metallurgical, thermo-mechanical and electro-mechanical properties.
AIenabled simulation will support optimisation across electrical, thermal and
mechanical domains, enabling improved performance and reliability while
reducing prototyping costs.
Speaking about the agreement, Padmesh Mandloi, Regional VP - Ansys Customer Excellence, Synopsys, said:
“This agreement enables a significant leap in the evolution of India’s
semiconductor design capabilities, especially in the fast-growing domain of
intelligent power modules. Following Synopsys’ acquisition of Ansys, the
combined portfolio of industry-leading multiphysics simulation technologies
with AI-accelerated design platforms, offering solutions from silicon to
systems, will empower LTSCT to innovate at the intersection of physics, data
and intelligence. We enable innovators like LTSCT to redefine how power modules
are designed and enable faster, more reliable and energy-efficient solutions
that will power India’s journey toward sustainable mobility and smart
manufacturing”.
The collaboration will empower innovation across key
sectors, including electric mobility, renewable energy and industrial
automation, advancing the next generation of intelligent power solutions.
LTSCT’s work will focus on developing integrated
module architectures that combine power devices, gate drivers, protection
circuits and control logic in compact form factors. Through AI-accelerated
multiphysics modelling, LTSCT will now be able to simulate chip, package and
system-level performance concurrently, improving design robustness while
reducing prototyping costs.
This multiyear agreement reflects LTSCT’s continued
investment in advanced design technologies and its commitment to strengthening
India’s power electronics and semiconductor design ecosystem.
