Environmental Sensors Catch More Data For A Greener World
By Liz Allan - 15 Dec, 2025 - Comments: 0

Sensors to detect temperature, pressure, and gases, such as CO2, have been around for centuries. However, the latest devices can measure a growing list of substances and process the data in real-time. Likewise, single-use sensors to measure pH levels in water are well established, but the latest water sensors can be deployed all along the pipeline from source to processing to outlet or tap, sav... » read more

Chip Innovation Will Bridge The Gap For USA Data Center Power
By Geoff Tate - 08 Dec, 2025 - Comments: 0

Heading to meetings in Silicon Valley, I often drive through Santa Clara, passing boxy buildings with few windows. They are data centers for local customers willing to pay for low latency. Data centers cluster in Santa Clara because that city's power has been the cheapest in Silicon Valley. The San Jose Mercury News recently reported that two data centers in Santa Clara are empty, waiting for a... » read more

Securing The Design Journey
By Matt Walsh - 04 Dec, 2025 - Comments: 0

In automotive, security, and pervasive computing, the stakes of failure have never been higher. Functional safety, security compliance, long product lifecycles, and system resilience are no longer differentiators — they are baseline requirements. Yet many semiconductor and system companies are still relying on an outdated engagement model built around static datasheets, fragmented tools, and ... » read more

TEE.fail: When Your Security System Leaves the Window Open
By Scott Best - 04 Dec, 2025 - Comments: 0

Let’s talk about a cybersecurity attack that’s been making waves: TEE.fail. TEE stands for Trusted Execution Environment. Sounds reassuring, right? But here’s the kicker: exactly what a TEE is, and what it’s supposed to guarantee, is surprisingly unclear. TEEs have been around for about a decade, but as with many things in security, the rules are more like guidelines. You might think, �... » read more

What The EU Cyber Resilience Act Means For Digital Product Makers
By Mafalda Monteiro Oiveira Cortez - 04 Dec, 2025 - Comments: 0

The EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) is set to become a defining regulation for all manufacturers and developers of digital products that touch the EU market. It introduces strict requirements for cybersecurity practices, risk management, and compliance procedures, affecting a wide range of stakeholders from software developers to hardware vendors. This article unpacks what the CRA is, who it af... » read more

PAwR Simplified: Zephyr And Bluetooth LE 5.4 In Action
By Akshara Arun - 04 Dec, 2025 - Comments: 0

If you have ever wanted to see ideas turn into synchronized signals and signals evolve into perfectly timed communication, Bluetooth LE 5.4’s PAwR (Periodic Advertising with Responses) delivers just that. By organizing communication into periodic events, subevents, and response slots, PAwR enables low-power devices to operate in precise rhythm, much like dancers coordinated by a choreograph... » read more

Charting The Course For A Truly Multi-Modal Device Edge
By Vikram Gupta - 04 Dec, 2025 - Comments: 0

The world is witnessing an AI tsunami. While the initial waves of this technological shift focused heavily on the cloud, a powerful new surge is now building at the edge. This rapid infusion of artificial intelligence is set to redefine IoT devices and applications, from sophisticated smart homes to highly efficient industrial environments. This evolution, however, has created significant fr... » read more

Reduce Noise And Improve Fan Performance With Serrated Edges
By Veena Parthan - 04 Dec, 2025 - Comments: 0

Industrial fans are widely utilized across various sectors, including manufacturing, automotive, and energy production, playing a vital role in ventilation and cooling. However, a notable drawback of these powerful machines is the significant noise they produce, which can range from 70 to 120 decibels. A primary contributor to this noise is the aerodynamic turbulence created by the fan blades. ... » read more

Small Language Models Create New Security Risks
By Ed Sperling - 04 Dec, 2025 - Comments: 0

The rollout of edge AI is creating new security risks due to a mix of small language models (SLMs), their integration into increasingly complex hardware, and the behavior and interactions of both over time. AI data centers still garner the most attention due to massive investments and an ongoing flood of deals and acquisitions, but the edge is quietly starting to take shape for several reaso... » read more

Physical AI Takes Functional Safety Cues From Automotive
By Liz Allan - 04 Dec, 2025 - Comments: 0

Robots are becoming smarter, more capable, and more pervasive, setting the stage for a whole new round of growth that will touch nearly every part of the semiconductor and software industries for decades to come. Robots are at the core of physical AI, a broad segment of edge AI systems that interact with the world through artificial intelligence and sensors. This includes everything from hum... » read more
