Simulation-driven EV Battery Pack Design And Manufacturing In The Decade Of Vehicle Electrification
By Puneet Sinha - 07 May, 2020 - Comments: 0

In the last decade, the electric vehicle (EV) industry has grown tremendously from just few offerings to today, when every automaker is working to electrify its vehicle portfolio. A lion’s share of this growth can be attributed to the advancements in lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery technology. Since 2010, Li-ion battery costs have come down by 87% [1] and energy density has tripled [2]. Automake... » read more

A New EDA Paradigm Emerges In Computational Software
By Paul McLellan - 07 May, 2020 - Comments: 0

Cadence has a new white paper out on Computational Software. I've written on these topics before, most recently in the posts: Computational Software System Analysis: Computational Software at Scale To set the scene, here is the abstract from the white paper: Electronics technology is evolving rapidly, becoming pervasive in our lives. There are more smartphones in use than there a... » read more

Vehicle Communications Network Is Due For Overhaul
By Ann Mutschler - 07 May, 2020 - Comments: 1

The Controller Area Network (CAN), one of the main communications networks in an automobile, is headed for a security overhaul — if not a wholesale replacement. Initially devised in the 1980s to allow electronic components in a vehicle to communicate directly without a central computer in between, the CAN bus has become a growing security risk as more functions are automated and integrated... » read more

Making Sense Of PUFs
By Bryon Moyer - 07 May, 2020 - Comments: 3

As security becomes a principal design consideration, physically unclonable functions (PUFs) are seeing renewed interest as new players emerge onto the market. PUFs can play a central role in hardware roots of trust (HRoTs), but the messaging in the market can make it confusing to understand the different types of PUF as well as their pros and cons. PUFs leverage some uncertain aspect of som... » read more

Optimizing Embedded Narrowband IoT Modem Solutions To Meet IoT Connectivity Challenges
By Rich Collins - 07 May, 2020 - Comments: 0

As the concept of the internet-of-things (IoT) was taking shape, the communications industry started addressing the anticipated need to connect these “billions of IoT devices” (Figure 1). Since these devices are meant to address low-cost, low-power (battery operated) applications, cellular technology trends to increase bandwidth – driven largely by mobile phones – needed to be revisite... » read more

IC Test Solutions For The Automotive Market
By Mentor, a Siemens Business - 06 May, 2020 - Comments: 0

The amount of electronic content in passenger cars continues to grow rapidly, driven mainly by the integration of various advanced safety features, which will increase further with the move towards fully autonomous vehicles. It is critical that these safety-related devices adhere to the highest possible quality and reliability requirements formalized in the ISO 26262 standard that is being rapi... » read more

Improving Test Coverage And Eliminating Test Ecapes Using Analog Defect Analysis
By Cadence - 06 May, 2020 - Comments: 0

While the analog and mixed-signal components are the leading source of test escapes that result in field failures, the lack of tools to analyze the test coverage during design has made it difficult for designers to address the issue. In this white paper, we explore the methodology for performing analog fault simulation of test coverage based on defect-oriented testing. In addition, we look at h... » read more

Meeting The Power Challenges of ADAS
By Maxim Integrated - 06 May, 2020 - Comments: 0

Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) technologies have the potential to improve driver safety and comfort, and to reduce car accidents and casualties. The adoption of ADAS technologies creates challenges in electronic solutions size, safety, and reliability. This white paper reviews the challenges for ADAS electronic components of a smart car and presents a few examples of how power man... » read more

MACsec Fundamentals: Securing Data in Motion
By Rambus - 06 May, 2020 - Comments: 0

For end-to-end security of data and devices, data must be secured both when it as rest (stored on a connected device) and when it is in motion (communicated between connected devices). For data at rest, a hardware root of trust anchored in silicon provides that foundation upon which all device security is built. Similarly, MACsec security anchored in hardware at the foundational communication l... » read more

A New Co-Simulation Approach for Tolerance Analysis on Vehicle Propulsion Subsystem
By Synopsys - 06 May, 2020 - Comments: 0

An increasing demand for reducing cost and time effort of the design process via improved CAE (ComputerAided Engineer) tools and methods has characterized the automotive industry over the past two decades. One of the main challenges involves the effective simulation of a vehicle’s propulsion system dealing with different physical domains: several examples have been proposed in the literature ... » read more
