Addressing The Challenges Of Automotive Motor Control
By Ahmed Eisawy - 14 Jul, 2016 - Comments: 0

By Andrew Talan and Ahmed Eisawy As you leave work today and enter the parking lot, you hit the unlock button on your car remote. Using the power lift to open the hatch back, you put your laptop bag in the back of the car. While seated in the car, you adjust your seat position and bump your driver-side mirror into a new position and then head for home. You probably don’t think much about y... » read more

How To Scale IoT For “Time To Money,” Security
By Brian Fuller - 14 Jul, 2016 - Comments: 0

When it comes to design, IoT can be boiled down to “time to money.” It’s more complex than that, of course, but the unique, dynamic nature of the segment is changing the way we design systems and how we think about security. “IoT is not a device. It’s delivering service across the cloud to connected devices,” said Nandan Nayampally, vice president of marketing with ARM. “In the... » read more

The Indisputable Case For USB 2.0 Type-C In IoT Applications
By Eric Huang - 14 Jul, 2016 - Comments: 0

USB is ubiquitous for a reason – It was designed specifically to be easy for consumers to use. When designers working in the fast-growing Internet of Things (IoT) market are looking for interfaces that can help with everything from charging to data transfer, USB is top-of-mind. However, IoT applications have performance, power and area requirements that are quite different from your phone or ... » read more

China Tops Top500
By Barry Pangrle - 14 Jul, 2016 - Comments: 0

The last time I wrote about the Green500, the Chinese machine Tianhe-2 was at the top of the Top500 list. At that point, Tianhe-2 had slipped from 49th to 64th on the Green500. Tianhe-2 has now slipped to second place on the Top500, only surpassed by yet another new Chinese machine, NRCPC’s Sunway TaihuLight. There has also been some consolidation between the Top500 and the Green500 lists: it... » read more

Building Smart Homes On A Secure Foundation
By Mike Borza - 17 Jun, 2016 - Comments: 0

News outlets recently covered the new paper, “Security Analysis of Emerging Smart Home Applications,” and its findings about the security vulnerabilities in common “smart home” applications. Originally published in the 2016 IEEE Symposium on Security and Privacy, the paper describes the operation of, and potential issues with, the programming framework in smart home devices on the marke... » read more

Simulation To Protect Us
By Ann Mutschler - 16 Jun, 2016 - Comments: 0

I hate to say I told you so, but, I told you so. Back in 2011, I wrote this article, Cell Phone Radiation: Taboo Topic, Interesting Science, and have since kept my eyes open for proof of what I’ve feared for some time now: that our bodies may be adversely affected by the radiation emitted by everything from the myriad electronic devices we carry close to our heads and bodies to WiFi hotspo... » read more

The Secret to Reaching Rapid Verification Closure
By Ellie Burns - 16 Jun, 2016 - Comments: 0

Every design team is looking to reduce RTL verification time in order to meet aggressive schedules. Successful teams have moved their level of design abstraction up to the C++ or [gettech id="31018" comment="SystemC"] level and employ [getkc id="105" comment="high-level synthesis"] (HLS) within their design flow. By taking advantage of this high-level description, these teams also plug into int... » read more

How Do We Get To Full Throttle In Mobile?
By Brian Fuller - 16 Jun, 2016 - Comments: 0

By Govind Wathan and Brian Fuller With each new generation of mobile device, we look forward to running the latest apps—especially games. (It's amazing how immersive mobile games have become in just a few years). We’re consumers but we’re also engineers, and here we’re faced with a huge challenge. It’s not just the games that get more powerful. A whole new generation of virtual ... » read more

Pivot Is The New Watchword For Design Automation
By Lucio Lanza - 03 Jun, 2016 - Comments: 0

Design Automation has been a crucial part of the semiconductor industry for more than 30 years. Without it, keeping up with Moore’s Law would have been impossible. The Design Automation industry accepted the high-risk responsibility for developing the sophisticated software and algorithms at the pace necessary to corral Moore’s Law. In a sense, Design Automation had its own Moore’s la... » read more

It’s All About The Data
By Ann Mutschler - 12 May, 2016 - Comments: 0

Ah, the wonders of math and physics — they do make the world go ‘round, do they not? And even in the world of chip design, of course, it is the fundamental understanding of the physics of electricity, materials, metals, etc., that it is all possible. I just wanted to stop for a moment to marvel at how those fundamental understandings of the math and physics of things have been abstracted... » read more
