Implementing Low-Power Machine Learning In Smart IoT Applications
By Pieter van der Wolf - 14 Nov, 2019 - Comments: 0

By Pieter van der Wolf and Dmitry Zakharov Increasingly, machine learning (ML) is being used to build devices with advanced functionalities. These devices apply machine learning technology that has been trained to recognize certain complex patterns from data captured by one or more sensors, such as voice commands captured by a microphone, and then performs an appropriate action. For example,... » read more

Scalable Platforms For Evolving AI
By Steve Roddy - 14 Nov, 2019 - Comments: 0

Wear and tear on big, heavy vehicles such as trains can cause unexpected delays and repairs, not to mention create safety hazards that can go unnoticed for months until they become critical. In the past, maintenance teams personally examined the undercarriage of a locomotive to look for stress cracks and other anomalies. Later, imaging and sonar technologies were introduced to find what the hum... » read more

Finding Hotspots In AI Chips
By Stephen Crosher - 14 Nov, 2019 - Comments: 0

Things are getting far more complicated as we move down to 7nm & 5nm but the tolerances of some of the physical effects that we have been measuring in the past are much tighter than they were at the older nodes. How do we track all that? What we see is that as we descend through the advanced nodes, say from 16nm down to 12nm, 7nm and more recently 5nm, we see that gate density starts to ... » read more

Building Access Control With Free Topology
By Jen Bernier-Santarini - 14 Nov, 2019 - Comments: 0

For facilities managers of large buildings and campuses, security and access control are huge challenges. Authorized persons come and go so privileges must be granted and revoked; different employees, students and visitors may all have different levels of privilege/access; the access cards themselves must be authenticated; and the list goes on. This is in the face of ever-escalating security th... » read more

Accelerating Chiplets With 112G XSR SerDes PHYs
By Nhat Nguyen - 31 Oct, 2019 - Comments: 0

The fading of Moore’s Law and an almost exponential increase in data is challenging the semiconductor industry as never before. Indeed, zettabytes of data are constantly generated by a wide range of devices including IoT endpoints such as vehicles, wearables, smartphones and appliances. Moreover, sophisticated artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) applications are adding new ... » read more

Seeing Is Believing: Visualizing Full Coverage Closure In Low-Power Designs
By Madhur Bhargava - 10 Oct, 2019 - Comments: 0

By Madhur Bhargava and Durgesh Prasad Lowering the power consumption and leakage in SoCs and other electrical designs has become a paramount concern in recent years. The reasons for this are many and well understood. The structures and techniques we use to accomplish this have made verification of so called low-power designs more complex and difficult than it is for designs where power usage... » read more

Shift Left Power-Aware Static Verification
By Himanshu Bhatt - 10 Oct, 2019 - Comments: 0

Next-generation SoCs with advanced graphics, computing, machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities are posing new unseen challenges in Low Power Verification. These techniques can introduce critical bugs into a design, especially when the power-management infrastructure interacts with signals that cross clock or reset domains. This can create additional clock-domain cro... » read more

IoT For Building Energy Systems In Zero-Emission Buildings
By Dirk Mayer - 10 Oct, 2019 - Comments: 0

By Dirk Mayer and Olaf Enge-Rosenblatt How can buildings contribute to a significant reduction in global primary energy consumption? Due to the global trend toward reducing CO2 emissions and resource conservation, the demands are increasing with regard to the efficiency of heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems operated in buildings. In conflict with calls for fas... » read more

Mary Jane Irwin Receives The Kaufman Award
By Paul McLellan - 10 Oct, 2019 - Comments: 0

Mary Jane Irwin just got back from a cruise around the Greek islands with her husband of 53 years to celebrate being the first woman to receive the Kaufman award. When I wrote my post The 2019 Kaufman Award Goes to Mary Jane Irwin about her receiving the awards last week, I mostly just used the boilerplate biographical information from the press release. But that's rather dry, so I called her u... » read more

The Industrial Internet Of Things Relies On ADCs
By Joao Marques - 10 Oct, 2019 - Comments: 0

We have all heard the news stories and read the market reports—the Industrial Internet of Things is changing industry as we know it. The move towards industrial systems becoming connected intelligent devices is happening all around us. In connected factories, there are three critical requirements: Large bandwidth communication channels Fast data processing Accurate decision inte... » read more
