Is ADAS The Edge?
By Ann Steffora Mutschler - 16 May, 2019 - Comments: 0

Debate is brewing over whether ADAS applications fall on the edge, or if they are better viewed squarely within the context of the automotive camp. There is more to this discussion than just semantics. The edge represents a huge greenfield opportunity for electronics of all sorts, and companies from the mobile market and from the cloud are both rushing to stake their claim. At this point the... » read more

Can The Hardware Supply Chain Remain Secure?
By Andy Patrizio - 15 May, 2019 - Comments: 2

Malware in computers has been a reality since the 1990s, but lately the focus has shifted to hardware. So far, the semiconductor industry has been lucky because well-publicized threats were either limited or unproven. But sooner or later, luck runs out. Last year saw two significant incidents that shook people’s faith in the integrity of hardware security. The first was the Meltdown/Spectr... » read more

Multiple Roots Of Trust And Isolation: Key Roles For Absolute Security
By Ben Levine - 13 May, 2019 - Comments: 0

Today, there are many different security processors available to the SoC designer. A majority have a commonality, and that is they are based on the same architecture. You can call it a two-domain architecture. One is non-secure; the other is secure with a single bit dividing the secure from the non-secure. What’s more, different applications from different entities may be running in that o... » read more

The Rapid Success Of IP Reuse
By Ranjit Adhikary - 13 May, 2019 - Comments: 0

The rise of IP use and reuse quickly became a challenge in the early 1990s as designs became more complex. Design teams quickly found themselves struggling to manage not only the vast numbers of IP cores that they were reusing but also versioning, permissions, legal approvals and so on. In the 1990s, software developers were established users of software configuration management (SCM) tools ... » read more

nnMAX Inference IP is nearing design completion. The nnMAX 1K tile will be available this summer for design integration in SoCs, and it can be arrayed to provide whatever inference throughput is desired. The InferX X1 chip will tape out late Q3 this year using 2x2 nnMAX tiles, for 4K MACs, with 8MB SRAM. The nnMAX Compiler is in development in parallel, and the first release is available now... » read more
