CDC研究所 List of Products and Services

As the first step, we will launch a course to train semiconductor designers who can immediately contribute to the analog circuits that serve as the gateway to Edge-AI devices starting in April 2026, thereby strengthening the competitiveness of the Japanese semiconductor industry. The "Edge-AI Design Academy" is an advanced course aimed at cultivating semiconductor and LSI design engineers in response to the rapidly evolving Edge-AI era. 1. Advanced training course for LSI designers to realize Edge-AI devices 2. Textbooks written by on-site LSI designers and lectures by practitioners 3. Practical training using commercial EDA tools utilizing the CDC Research Institute cloud 【First Phase】April 2026 Analog LSI Design Course (beginner and intermediate courses are two-week programs) - Beginner Course: Design fundamentals from device operation to charge pumps and operational amplifiers - Intermediate Course: Semiconductor circuit design with basic ADC/DAC, PLL, etc. - Advanced Course: Off-the-job training with self-submitted projects Remote participation is available. In preparation for the course, we are recruiting participants from companies, organizations, universities, and technical colleges, as well as seeking collaborative partners for joint utilization. We encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity as a venue for developing the next generation of talent and technology for Edge-AI device design.
