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

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

AI Warnings For Safer Driving
By Kazuki Ohta - 10 Oct, 2019 - Comments: 0

You’re driving to work, the same route you take every day. But this time, a storm passes over: you’re suddenly faced with heavy rain and reduced visibility. All of a sudden, the “accident score” meter on your car’s dashboard moves into the red. You ease off the gas, move out of the passing lane and your score drops down to amber—you can’t get it into the green due to the advers... » read more

Driving With Chiplets
By Andy Heinig - 24 Sep, 2019 - Comments: 0

The first examples of the upper class of vehicles that can drive autonomously on the highway already have arrived on the market or will be introduced to the market in the coming years. Travel on the highway was selected as the first application because the number of objects that have to be taken into account in front of, next to, and behind the vehicle is manageable. This means the required ... » read more

Scan Compression Is No Longer About Compression
By Rohit Kapur - 16 Sep, 2019 - Comments: 0

Scan compression was introduced in the year 2000 and has seen rapid adoption. Nearly every design’s test methodology today implements this technology, which inserts compression logic in the scan path between the scan I/Os and the internal chains. In this article, we take a critical look at the technology to understand how scan compression has matured. The road to scan compression Since th... » read more

Breaking Down The AI Memory Wall
By Steven Woo - 12 Sep, 2019 - Comments: 0

Over the past few decades, the semiconductor industry has witnessed the rapid evolution of memory technology as new memories helped to usher in new usage models that characterized each decade. For example, synchronous memory helped drive the personal computer (PC) revolution in the 1990s, and this was quickly followed by specialized graphics memory (GPUs) for game consoles in the 2000s. When sm... » read more

High-Performance DSP And Control Processing For Complex 5G Requirements
By Graham Wilson - 12 Sep, 2019 - Comments: 0

In the early 2000s, digital signal processors (DSP) were simple in architecture and limited in performance, but complex in programming. However, they evolved to meet of the increased performance requirements of 3G cellular baseband modem applications. A typical 3G modem system would have a single DSP optimized for dual/quad SIMD MAC performance with basic DSP filter instructions like Fast Fouri... » read more

Simplifying Ultra-Low Power System Design
By Paul Hill - 12 Sep, 2019 - Comments: 0

By Paul Hill and Gordon MacNee With any low-power design, the designer has the choice between choosing low-power components or switching off the power to peripheral devices. When considering the choice of non-volatile flash memories, the designer has these same two options available to them – each of which has its pros and cons from system operation, power consumption and reliability persp... » read more

Place And Route Made Easier And Faster
By Mentor, a Siemens Business - 12 Sep, 2019 - Comments: 0

By Allan Crone A predictable trend in IC design is the ever-increasing size and complexity of designs while keeping the time allocated for the projects the same or shorter. Along with the tape-out pressure, organizations need to find cost savings everywhere possible. Lowering the overall cost of ownership of EDA tools is a viable way to manage the design budget. Consequently, design teams ar... » read more
