Sensor Requirements For Developing Robust Environment Perception Systems
By Ron Martin - 18 Jul, 2024 - Comments: 0

In recent years, sensor systems for environment perception have become increasingly important – whether for adaptive robotics, automated driving, industrial process and quality control, or condition monitoring. The aim is always to detect and interpret certain environmental characteristics. In doing so, it’s important to choose not only the right algorithm but also the right sensor or senso... » read more

Validation Of Smart Sensors For AI-Based Condition Monitoring In Industry
By André Schneider - 13 Jun, 2024 - Comments: 0

By André Schneider and Martin Lehmann Industry has challenging requirements for the quality and reliability of the distributed smart sensors used in condition monitoring. As a result of digitalization and the increasing use of AI-based monitoring solutions, we can expect an increase in demand for systematic, efficient design and validation processes. In the future, a product’s journey fro... » read more

Efficient Electronics
By Andy Heinig - 16 May, 2024 - Comments: 0

Attention nowadays has turned to the energy consumption of systems that run on electricity. At the moment, the discussion is focused on electricity consumption in data centers: if this continues to rise at its current rate, it will account for a significant proportion of global electricity consumption in the future. Yet there are other, less visible electricity consumers whose power needs are a... » read more

Trusted Electronics: Current And Future Developments
By Roland Jancke - 11 Apr, 2024 - Comments: 0

In today’s world, we encounter electronics increasingly as complex hardware/software systems, such as those in vehicles, machines, and communication devices. These systems are characterized by dramatic increases in functionality in areas like environment sensing, stages of autonomy, and the installation of future updates. Developing and manufacturing such electronic systems today requires glo... » read more

Current And Future Challenges For An Open Chiplet Ecosystem
By Andy Heinig - 14 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 0

There are currently a variety of ways to approach chiplet systems. One is to have a closed system in which a manufacturer develops all the components in-house and is also in charge of commissioning and overseeing assembly. In this scenario, everything is coordinated within that company and no standards are required. Another is to establish open chiplet systems. This approach taps a considera... » read more

Requirements For The Efficient Implementation Of AI Solutions On Edge Devices
By André Schneider - 14 Dec, 2023 - Comments: 0

By André Schneider, Olaf Enge-Rosenblatt, and Björn Zeugmann In recent years, there has been a growing tendency to implement data-driven approaches for the continuous monitoring of industrial plants as part of digitalization and Industry 4.0 initiatives. The hope is to detect critical conditions at an early stage, minimize maintenance and downtimes, and continuously achieve high product qu... » read more

Damage Detection For Reliable Microelectronics
By Jens Michael Warmuth - 09 Nov, 2023 - Comments: 0

Over the past few years, the reliability and safety of electronic systems have become increasingly more important. Ongoing digitalization has made these systems an integral part of many items of daily use. This means that failures are becoming more and more critical as they can cause considerable disruption – even when they occur in consumer electronics. Today, electronics are also indispensa... » read more

Reliability On The Rise In IC Design
By Andre Lange - 14 Sep, 2023 - Comments: 0

Reliability has been an important factor in the semiconductor industry for decades. A closer look reveals three main priorities: In the area of technology development and optimization, the microscopic mechanisms that lead to degradation must be identified and understood before they can be fixed. Microanalytical methods are used here as well as TCAD simulations. If it’s not possible to... » read more

Virtual Development Of Perception Sensor Systems
By Ron Martin - 10 Aug, 2023 - Comments: 0

By Ron Martin and Christoph Sohrmann Over the past few years, there has been a marked expansion in research and development activities related to driver assistance systems as well as highly automated and connected driving systems. However, this has yet to translate into a higher degree of automation in the average production vehicle – especially for SAE Level 3 and above. The next step in ... » read more

Analog IP Reuse
By Benjamin Prautsch - 20 Jul, 2023 - Comments: 0

Analog integrated circuit IP is essential to how microelectronic circuits and systems interact with the environment. It enables things like signal conversion, stable power supply, and communication in state-of-the-art devices. However, designing these critical components – even though they are often a small part of complex chips – is very costly and risk-prone. And in today’s analog field... » read more
