Abstract: "This article is devoted to the issue of creating the concept of an automated system for simulating pedestrians on the road surface, intended for testing unmanned vehicles and active driver assistance systems. The article examines in detail the prerequisites for the creation of such a system and its relevance for Russia. The existing analogues of this system are demonstrated, their... » read more

Industry Transforming In Ways Previously Unimaginable
By Brian Bailey - 30 Dec, 2021 - Comments: 0

Early in the year, everyone expected that the availability of COVID vaccines would signal the start of a return to normal, but that has certainly not been the case. Now the industry is taking a longer-term view about how to transform business, what is necessary for people to maintain their mental health, and how to create robust hybrid work environments for the future that do not discard the po... » read more

Who Designs Medical ICs
By SE Staff - 29 Dec, 2021 - Comments: 0

The medical chip market is heating up as sensor and processing technologies reach maturity, seeing off a frenzy of activity by systems companies and startups looking to plant a stake in a vast and largely untapped arena. As with any industry, there are a variety of business models, which can spread out the design burden over many companies or just one large one. This was limited in the past ... » read more

Always-On DSPs
By Ed Sperling - 28 Dec, 2021 - Comments: 0

There are tradeoffs between powering circuits down to save power and waking them up to respond to voice and visual commands. Prakash Madhvapathy, director of product marketing and product management at Cadence, talks about the best ways to deploy digital signal processors, why multiple DSPs are often better than just one, and what penalties there are for various approaches. » read more

Manufacturing Bits: Dec. 28
By Mark LaPedus - 28 Dec, 2021 - Comments: 1

Measuring microdroplets The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has found a new way for microscopes to measure the volumes of microdroplets. Using this technique, NIST has measured the volume of individual droplets smaller than 100 trillionths of a liter with an uncertainty of less than 1%. That represents a tenfold improvement compared to previous measurements, according ... » read more

Shrinking LEDs Researchers from King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) are working to make LEDs smaller. Micrometer-scale light-emitting diodes (μLEDs) could be an ideal building block for future microLED displays, but devices based on nitride-based alloys used to achieve a broad color range become poor emitters of light when shrunk to micrometer scales. “The main ... » read more

Batteries Take Center Stage
By Heidi Elliott - 27 Dec, 2021 - Comments: 0

For any mobile electronic device, the biggest limiting factors are the size, age, type, and utilization of the batteries. Battery technology is improving on multiple fronts. The batteries themselves are becoming more efficient. They are storing more energy per unit of area, and work is underway to provide faster charging and to increase the percentage of that energy that can be used, as well... » read more

Semiconductor nanochannels in metallic carbon nanotubes by thermomechanical chirality alteration
By Technical Paper Link - 23 Dec, 2021 - Comments: 0

Abstract: "Carbon nanotubes have a helical structure wherein the chirality determines whether they are metallic or semiconducting. Using in situ transmission electron microscopy, we applied heating and mechanical strain to alter the local chirality and thereby control the electronic properties of individual single-wall carbon nanotubes. A transition trend toward a larger chiral angle region wa... » read more

TAP-2.5D: A Thermally-Aware Chiplet Placement Methodology for 2.5D Systems
By Technical Paper Link - 23 Dec, 2021 - Comments: 0

Abstract "Heterogeneous systems are commonly used today to sustain the historic benefits we have achieved through technology scaling. 2.5D integration technology provides a cost-effective solution for designing heterogeneous systems. The traditional physical design of a 2.5D heterogeneous system closely packs the chiplets to minimize wirelength, but this leads to a thermally-inefficient design... » read more
