Next-Generation Distributed Static Timing Analysis On The Cloud
By Ajit Sequeira - 26 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

Ever-growing chip size and complexity put pressure on every step and every electronic design automation (EDA) tool in the development flow. More decisions must be made at the architectural stage, stressing virtual prototypes and high-level models. Simulations become slower and consume more memory. Formal verification struggles to achieve full proofs. Logic synthesis and layout have a harder tim... » read more

Differentiation And Architecture Licenses In RISC‑V
By Rupert Baines - 26 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

I was discussing with a colleague about the concept of architecture license in RISC-V. I realized that, in the open-source world, it can be a little tricky to grasp. In a traditional processor IP model, there is a clear distinction between an off-the-shelf IP license that gives some level of configuration but no customization and a fairly expensive architecture license enabling ... » read more

True Wireless Stereo Earbud Charger Cradle
By Michael Joehren - 26 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

During the last few years, Bluetooth-connected earbuds and headphones have gained significant market share over their wired ancestors. Especially, True Wireless Stereo (TWS) earbuds gained massive popularity with approximately 300M+ units sold in 2021. Technically, these earbuds resemble in-ear hearing aids, except that they offer advanced features such as wireless connectivity (Bluetooth) and ... » read more

High-Level Synthesis: It’s Still Hardware Design
By Siemens EDA - 26 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

Hardware design using HLS is no different than the typical ASIC/FPGA design flow with the exception that C++/SystemC is being used along with HLS to create the RTL instead of hand coding it. The advantage of using HLS is that it speeds up RTL creation time and reduces verification time by producing bug free RTL quickly from a fully verified C++/SystemC source. The misconception that still exist... » read more

Hybrid Method For More Reliable Virtual Sensors Within Vehicle Dynamics Control Systems
By Technical Paper Link - 25 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

New technical paper titled "Ensuring the Reliability of Virtual Sensors Based on Artificial Intelligence within Vehicle Dynamics Control Systems" from University of Duisburg-Essen. Abstract "The use of virtual sensors in vehicles represents a cost-effective alternative to the installation of physical hardware. In addition to physical models resulting from theoretical modeling, artificial in... » read more

Neuromorphic HW Fabric That Supports A Recently Proposed Class of Stochastic Neural Network
By Technical Paper Link - 25 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

New research paper titled "Neural sampling machine with stochastic synapse allows brain-like learning and inference" from University of Notre Dame and Department of Cognitive Sciences, University of California Irvine. Abstract "Many real-world mission-critical applications require continual online learning from noisy data and real-time decision making with a defined confidence level. Brain-... » read more

Zone-ECU Virtualization Solution Platform
By Renesas - 25 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

The high complexity of future vehicle systems will need to move away from today’s distributed automotive E/E architecture towards a more centralized E/E structure based on less but much more powerful ECUs, instead of many individual control entities. A Zone-oriented architecture moves the integration of numerous functions and services into one ECU. The resulting network concept must deal w... » read more

Designing Application-Specific Processors for Wireless 5G SoCs
By Synopsys - 25 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

Traditional architectures for wireless baseband applications are no longer adequate for recent and next-generation modem standards. Supporting complex and still evolving standards like 5G in a single modem is only possible by using SDR techniques, which place increasing demands on performance and power consumption on the SoC. ASIP architectures enable full customization of a processor, which... » read more

Evolving Your ADAS And AV Tests With Emulation Capability
By Keysight - 25 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

Creating safe and robust autonomous driving (AD) systems is a complex task. Autonomous vehicles (AVs) have hundreds of sensors, all of which need to work with one another inside the car and with other smart vehicles. The software algorithms enabling autonomous driving features will ultimately need to synthesize all the information collected from these sensors to ensure that the vehicle responds... » read more

Blog Review: May 25
By Jesse Allen - 25 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

Coventor's Michael Hargrove points to the need for a new generation of deep-submicron CMOS circuits that can operate at deep-cryogenic temperatures to achieve a quantum integrated circuit where the array of qubits is integrated on the same chip as the CMOS electronics required to read the state of the qubits. Ansys' Marc Swinnen warns about dynamic voltage drop as ultra-low supply voltages, ... » read more
