Three Key Aspects Of IP Quality
By Tom Anderson - 02 Dec, 2021 - Comments: 0

It’s no secret that today’s huge system-on-chip (SoC) projects require massive amounts of design reuse. No team, no matter how talented, can design a billion or more gates from scratch. They use extensive borrowing of RTL code from previous and related projects, plus hundreds of thousands of instantiated IP blocks from internal libraries, open-source repositories, development partners, and ... » read more

More Than Moore At iMAPS
By Paul McLellan - 02 Dec, 2021 - Comments: 0

San Diego recently hosted the 54th International Symposium on Microelectronics. That's a very generic title, so you should know that it is run by iMAPS, the International Microelectronics Assembly and Packaging Society. Generally, the conference is just known as iMAPS. One of the keynotes was given by Cadence's KT Moore (in person). His presentation was titled "More Moore or More than Moore: a... » read more

Effectively Addressing The Challenge Of Securing Connected And Autonomous Vehicles
By Siemens EDA - 01 Dec, 2021 - Comments: 0

Vehicles are becoming the most sophisticated connected objects in the ‘Internet of Things’. As vehicles integrate functionality that will enable a fully autonomous future, the attack surface grows substantially. Combined with remote connectivity at multiple points, the clock is ticking in a race to improve cybersecurity in all types of vehicles to ensure that all stakeholders, but particula... » read more

Startup Funding: November 2021
By Jesse Allen - 01 Dec, 2021 - Comments: 0

There's nothing virtual about the level of interest in AR/VR startups. As the concept of the 'metaverse' becomes more widespread with Nvidia's recent GTC announcements and Facebook's rebranding, investors poured money into startups with enabling technology for augmented, virtual, and extended reality. Most of those are developing waveguides and other display technology that is light enough to b... » read more

Traction Inverters Are A Key Application For Electrified Vehicle Designs
By Infineon - 01 Dec, 2021 - Comments: 0

High efficiency increases range and reduces cooling efforts while optimized power density assists with space and weight. As sales volumes increase, the focus is shifting to automated manufacturing with increasing quality requirements. The most fundamental system in all electric vehicles is the powertrain and, at the heart of this is the traction inverter that converts energy stored in the ba... » read more

Anti-Tamper Benefits Of Encrypted Helper-Data Images For PUFs
By Rambus - 01 Dec, 2021 - Comments: 0

PUFs are mixed-signal circuits which rely on variations unique to a specific chip to self-generate a digital “fingerprint.” Most PUFs require a “helper-data” image that is generated during the initial digitization process, also known as Enrollment. Leveraging the chip-unique transformation function of PUFs and encrypted helper data, an unclonable challenge-response mechanism can be impl... » read more

Importance Of Programmability In Next-Generation Security Appliances
By Xilinx - 01 Dec, 2021 - Comments: 0

Traditional methods of deploying network security through software-based firewalls do not scale because the latency and bandwidth requirements cannot be addressed. The flexibility and configurability of Xilinx adaptive devices combined with IP and tool offerings significantly improves security processing performance. This white paper explores multiple firewall architectures, which include so... » read more

Securing Connected Medical Devices For FDA Submissions
By Synopsys - 01 Dec, 2021 - Comments: 0

The benefits and challenges of the Internet of Things (IoT) are especially evident in healthcare, thanks to increases in the volume and use of medical devices. Network-connected devices have greatly improved patient care by helping healthcare providers monitor vital signs, regulate medication dosages, improve diagnostics, and ultimately improve patient outcomes while lowering costs. This whi... » read more

Creating IoT Devices That Will Remain Secure
By Ed Sperling - 30 Nov, 2021 - Comments: 0

What’s secure today may not be secure in the future, and even if you include an IoT device with state-of-the-art security, it may be surrounded by less secure devices. Steve Hanna, distinguished engineer at Infineon, examines the impact of security on IoT adoption, why resilience across a system is the new target for secure designs, and how to minimize the impact of less secure devices. » read more
