Universities around the world are forming partnerships with semiconductor companies and governments to help fill open and future positions, to keep curricula current and relevant, and to update and expand skills for working engineers. Talent shortages repeatedly have been cited as the number one challenge for the chip industry. Behind those concerns are several key drivers, and many more dom... » read more

Chip Industry Week In Review
By The SE Staff - 13 Oct, 2023 - Comments: 0

By Liz Allan, Jesse Allen, and Karen Heyman. Canon uncorked a nanoimprint lithography system, which the company said will be useful down to about the 5nm node. Unlike traditional lithography equipment, which projects a pattern onto a resist, nanoimprint directly transfers images onto substrates using a master stamp patterned by an e-beam system. The technology has a number of limitations and... » read more

Latency Considerations For 1.6T Ethernet Designs
By Jon Ames - 12 Oct, 2023 - Comments: 0

Since its 1980s debut with 10Mbps shared LANs over coaxial cables, Ethernet has seen consistent advancements, now with the potential to support speeds up to 1.6Tbps. This progression has allowed Ethernet to serve a wider range of applications, such as live streaming, Radio Access Networks and industrial control, emphasizing the importance of reliable packet transfer and quality of service. With... » read more

RISC-V Wants All Your Cores
By Brian Bailey - 12 Oct, 2023 - Comments: 0

RISC-V is no longer content to disrupt the CPU industry. It is waging war against every type of processor integrated into an SoC or advanced package, an ambitious plan that will face stiff competition from entrenched players with deep-pocketed R&D operations and their well-constructed ecosystems. When Calista Redmond, CEO for RISC-V International, said at last year's summit that RISC-V w... » read more

Partitioning Processors For AI Workloads
By Ann Mutschler - 12 Oct, 2023 - Comments: 0

Partitioning in complex chips is beginning to resemble a high-stakes guessing game, where choices need to extrapolate from what is known today to what is expected by the time a chip finally ships. Partitioning of workloads used to be a straightforward task, although not necessarily a simple one. It depended on how a device was expected to be used, the various compute, storage and data paths ... » read more
