Designing In The Cloud
By Ranjit Adhikary - 06 Jun, 2019 - Comments: 0

Amazon AWS was launched back in 2006. Web based services such as Netflix and Expedia were early adopters, and AWS has grown rapidly, bringing in competition from Google (GCP), Microsoft (Azure) and others. It has taken a while for the design community to embrace the ‘cloud’ as some of the needs and concerns of design teams are different.  Cloud vendors have recognized this untapped market ... » read more

In Automotive, A Move From Microcontrollers To Massively Complex SoCs
By Andrew Macleod - 06 Jun, 2019 - Comments: 1

Cars and custom, high-end chips. It’s a topic coming up more frequently these days. The most prominent example is Tesla’s FSD computer, described by Elon Musk as “the best chip in the world…objectively” during the company’s April Autonomy Day. When it comes to chips, Tesla is alone only when it comes to hyperbole, at least based on browsing job postings for big carmakers and supplie... » read more

Speeding Up AI
By Ed Sperling - 06 Jun, 2019 - Comments: 0

Robert Blake, president and CEO of Achronix, sat down with Semiconductor Engineering to talk about AI, which processors work best where, and different approaches to accelerate performance. SE: How is AI affecting the FPGA business, given the constant changes in algorithms and the proliferation of AI almost everywhere? Blake: As we talk to more and more customers deploying new products and... » read more

Ethernet NIC For Fast Data Path
By Nishant Lodha - 06 Jun, 2019 - Comments: 0

A bit of validation once in a while is good for all of us – that’s pretty true whether you are the one providing it or, conversely, the one receiving it. Most of the time it seems to be me that is giving out validation rather than getting it. Like the other day when my wife tried on a new dress and asked me, “How do I look?” Now, of course, we all know there is only one way to answer a ... » read more

Holes In AI Security
By Ed Sperling - 06 Jun, 2019 - Comments: 0

Mike Borza, principal security technologist in Synopsys’ Solutions Group, explains why security is lacking in AI, why AI is especially susceptible to Trojans, and why small changes in training data can have big impacts on many devices. » read more

Toshiba Verifies Thermal Contribution In Motor Control Driver ICs
By Mentor, a Siemens Business - 05 Jun, 2019 - Comments: 0

High output current ICs usually generate a lot of heat from the driver transistor, which affects the surrounding circuits. Therefore, it is important to take into account the transient heat based on the output current level when designing applications such as engine throttles or on/off switches for engine bulbs. In this whitepaper, the Toshiba team discusses how they used the Eldo circuit simul... » read more

Securing The Mobile IoT
By Synopsys - 05 Jun, 2019 - Comments: 0

It’s 2019. Security fears, locked ecosystems, and lack of technology are keeping IoT products within WiFi networks, and not reaching their full potential. As an industry, we must provide IoT solutions that are simple and keep consumers--and their data--secure.The mobile IoT is the next frontier in the connected device market, providing out-of-the-box connectivity with security from silicon... » read more

Full Disk Encryption of Solid State Drives and Root of Trust
By Rambus - 05 Jun, 2019 - Comments: 0

File encryption, file system encryption and full disk encryption (FDE) are methods offered by the industry to allow users to protect their data stored on non-volatile storage devices, such as Solid State Disks (SSD). The main feature of FDE is to protect stored system and user date from unauthorized reading, writing, alteration, moving or rolling back. However, extended security feature... » read more

SOC Design & IP Management—A Must For Functional Verification
By Cliosoft - 05 Jun, 2019 - Comments: 0

As a part of the verification flow, verification teams perform different types of simulations based on the nature of the design. The simulations include digital logic functional simulations, mixed-signal functional simulations, power-aware simulations, formal verification runs and gate-level simulations. For a signoff, all planned tests must pass in all four types of simulations. In addition t... » read more

How To Meet Power Performance And Cost for Autonomous Vehicle Systems Using Speedcore eFPGAs
By Achronix - 05 Jun, 2019 - Comments: 0

In the advanced, fully autonomous, self-driving vehicles of the future, the existence of dozens and even hundreds of distributed CPUs and numerous other processing elements is assured. Peripheral sensor-fusion and other processing tasks can be served by ASICs, SoCs, or traditional FPGAs. But the introduction of embedded FPGA blocks such as Achronix's Speedcore eFPGA IP provides numerous system-... » read more
