Research Bits: June 24
By Jesse Allen - 24 Jun, 2025 - Comments: 0

In-sensor visual processing Researchers from the University of Massachusetts Amherst created silicon-based in-sensor visual processing arrays that can both capture and process visual data in the analog domain to reduce the latency between sensing and identification. The team created two integrated arrays of gate-tunable silicon photodetectors that share bipolar analog output and low-power o... » read more

Superlattice castellated FETs Researchers from the University of Bristol and Northrop Grumman Mission Systems discovered a latch-effect in gallium nitride (GaN) that could lead to improved radio frequency device performance, crucial for enabling 6G devices. “We have piloted a device technology, working with collaborators, called superlattice castellated field effect transistors (SLCFETs),... » read more

LLMs On The Edge
By Ed Sperling - 16 Jun, 2025 - Comments: 0

Nearly all the data input for AI so far has been text, but that's about to change. In the future, that input likely will include video, voice, as well as other types of data, causing a massive increase in the amount of data that needs to be modeled and the compute resources necessary to make it all work. This is hard enough in hyperscale data centers, which are sprouting up everywhere to handle... » read more

A Guide To SDC-Based Timing Intent Verification With Questa One
By Siemens EDA - 16 Jun, 2025 - Comments: 0

As semiconductor designs continue to grow in complexity and timing margins become increasingly constrained, achieving predictable timing closure has evolved from a best practice into a critical requirement for first-pass silicon success. At the heart of this process lies the timing constraint file, i.e., the SDC (Synopsys Design Constraints), which defines the intended timing behavior of the de... » read more

The Coming NPU Population Collapse
By Steve Roddy - 12 Jun, 2025 - Comments: 0

At some point in everyone’s teenage years of schooling we were all taught in a nature or biology class about cycles of population surges and then inevitable population collapses. Whether the example was an animal, plant, insect or even bacteria, some external event triggers a rapid surge in the population of a species which leads to overpopulation and competition for resources (food, space, s... » read more

Industry Leaders Provide Insights And Guidance On Multi-Die Designs
By Frank Malloy - 12 Jun, 2025 - Comments: 0

Multi-die designs seamlessly integrate multiple heterogeneous or homogeneous dies in a single package to significantly enhance chip performance and efficiency — making them indispensable for high-performance computing (HPC), artificial intelligence (AI), data analytics, advanced graphics processing, and other demanding applications. While representing a groundbreaking leap forward, multi-d... » read more

Model-Based Systems Engineering
By Roland Jancke - 12 Jun, 2025 - Comments: 0

Today’s electronic systems are an increasingly complex combination of hardware and software components. They contain an ever-expanding range of functions, require more computing power, have to operate a wide variety of interfaces, comply with standards, and be compatible with established market solutions. Accommodating all the new functions and expanded capacity may require a larger silicon a... » read more

Smarter, Faster, Leaner: Rethinking Verification For The Modern Era
By Harry Foster - 12 Jun, 2025 - Comments: 0

Verification isn’t just another step in the semiconductor design process—it’s increasingly the step that defines whether teams hit their schedules or miss the mark. With skyrocketing design complexity, accelerated development timelines, and persistent engineering shortages, the industry is feeling the pressure. Traditional methods aren’t keeping pace. At Siemens, we’ve been rethink... » read more

Meeting The Performance Demands Of The Next-Gen Client PC Market
By Carlos Weissenberg - 12 Jun, 2025 - Comments: 0

The client PC market is undergoing a transformative shift. As AI becomes a cornerstone of modern computing, the architecture of client systems—particularly notebooks and desktops—is being reimagined to support the immense data processing needs of these workloads. From real-time inferencing to generative applications, AI is redefining what performance means in a personal computer. With th... » read more

Introducing GICv5: Scalable And Secure Interrupt Management For Arm
By Christoffer Dall - 12 Jun, 2025 - Comments: 0

As Arm-based infrastructure continues to scale across markets, demands on system components increase. This can mean more interrupts, or signals from hardware/software to a processor to pause a task and handle another. Arm’s Generic Interrupt Controller Architecture (GIC) helps manage the communication between devices and processors efficiently. It makes sure the right processor handles the r... » read more
