L&T Semiconductor Technologies Ltd has entered into a multi-year licensing agreement with Synopsys to strengthen its advanced power electronics design capabilities and accelerate development of next-generation power modules and intelligent power modules (IPMs).
Under the agreement, LTSCT will deploy Synopsys’ AI-enabled multiphysics simulation technologies to optimize semiconductor designs across chip, package, and system levels. The collaboration is aimed at improving design efficiency, reducing development cycles, and enhancing reliability in high-voltage power electronics applications.
The partnership focuses particularly on intelligent power modules operating from 1.2 kV up to 10 kV, where increasingly complex electrical, thermal, and mechanical interactions require advanced simulation-driven design methodologies. AI-assisted modeling will enable simultaneous optimization across multiple domains, reducing prototyping requirements and accelerating commercialization.
Strategically, the collaboration strengthens India’s emerging semiconductor ecosystem by expanding domestic design capabilities in power electronics—a critical area for electric vehicles, renewable energy, industrial automation, and smart manufacturing.
LTSCT plans to develop highly integrated module architectures combining power semiconductors, gate drivers, protection circuits, and control logic within compact form factors. By leveraging AI-driven simulation and digital design workflows, the company aims to improve overall system robustness while lowering development costs.
From a market perspective, this agreement reflects the growing importance of software-defined semiconductor development, particularly in advanced power modules where thermal management, packaging, and reliability are becoming key differentiators. It also highlights the increasing convergence of AI, multiphysics simulation, and power semiconductor design as companies race to accelerate innovation cycles.
The collaboration further positions LTSCT as a strategic domestic player in India’s expanding power semiconductor landscape while reinforcing Synopsys’ role as a critical enabler of next-generation semiconductor system design.
