Implementing Secure Boot With A Root Of Trust
By Bart Stevens - 04 Nov, 2021 - Comments: 0

A boot sequence describes the initial set of operations performed by a device at the start of the boot process. During this stage, available resources reside in some form of local, nonvolatile storage that is readily accessible by the device. The entity initiating the startup sequence is known as a boot loader (or bootstrap loader). The boot loader enables forward progression throughout the ... » read more

Shifting Vehicle System Development Left With Virtual ECUs
By Marc Serughetti - 04 Nov, 2021 - Comments: 0

Developing electrical and electronic content for vehicles has always been an engineering and manufacturing challenge. The road is an exceptionally rough environment for components: temperature and humidity change constantly while noise and vibration pummel all parts of the vehicle. The nature of high-speed travel requires safety and reliability, which must be achieved in the presence of the dif... » read more

Optimizing System-Level Connectivity In Heterogenous Automotive Packages
By Keith Felton - 04 Nov, 2021 - Comments: 0

By Keith Felton and Cristina Somma With the massive growth of electronics in the automotive sector (such as autonomous driving, electric vehicles, and safety systems), the complexity, capabilities, and volume of semiconductors is rapidly increasing the demand for greater package connectivity density. This has led to high-end IC-package solutions, such as copper pillar bumping with very fi... » read more

Ethernet Time-Sensitive Networking Adoption In The Automotive Industry
By Krunal Patel - 04 Nov, 2021 - Comments: 0

At a particular point in time, the automotive industry continued to add more and more sensors and electronic control units to vehicles. All these sensors and actuators used to connect through CAN and LIN buses. However, since the introduction of IVN (In-Vehicle Network), the industry has started replacing these buses with automotive Ethernet. According to NXP, “Ethernet enables broadband co... » read more

The two-day, virtual event on November 3rd and 4... » read more

AV-Over-IP: Decisions, Decisions…
By Rob Green - 11 Oct, 2021 - Comments: 0

By Rob Green and Andrew Starks You know it’s coming, and you need to be ready for it, but the path to supporting AV-over-IP in your next generation product is still really confusing and choosing a particular protocol implementation feels like a gamble that you just can’t afford to lose! It’s clear that the benefits of moving to IP-based transport for audio, video, and associated dat... » read more

GPIO IP For Automotive Functional Safety
By Nidhi Bhasin - 07 Oct, 2021 - Comments: 0

By Nidhi Bhasin, Shivakumar Chonnad, Vladimir Litovtchenko, and Sowjanya Syamala The prevalence and complexity of electronics and software (EE systems) in automotive applications are increasing with every new generation of car. The critical functions within the system on a chip (SoC) involve hardware and software that perform automotive-related signal communication at high data rates to and ... » read more

How Verification And Validation Can Create A Comprehensive Digital Twin To Design Tomorrow’s Self-Driving Cars Today
By Shakeel Jeeawoody - 07 Oct, 2021 - Comments: 0

By Shakeel Jeeawoody and Hieu Tran Autonomous vehicles (AV) are the future of driving – and the future might not be so far away. Optimizing the capabilities of self-driving vehicles and the environment around them could lead to a mad dash to the financial finish line for manufacturers. Who takes the checkered flag will ultimately be determined by the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of th... » read more

Make Your SoC Upgradable Like A Tesla
By Andy Jaros - 07 Oct, 2021 - Comments: 0

I’ve always been a fan of Tesla. Not for the quick acceleration, nice lines, great handling or leading the world away from the using the internal combustion engine. I’m a big fan because they plan products not just for use today, but for the future. In the not too distant past, in order to get the latest automotive technology, you’d have to buy a new car. With Tesla, you don’t have to. ... » read more

More NoC Wisdom
By Kurt Shuler - 07 Oct, 2021 - Comments: 0

A common experience for anyone promoting a disruptive technology is that prospective customers understand that what is being offered is different. Still, without a familiar reference to compare, they extrapolate expectations unreliably. Sometimes expectations are extrapolated to infinity: “My existing solution has limitations, but the new technology should have no limitations.” Sometimes ex... » read more
