Advancing the Future of Hearing Aids


Hearing, one of the fundamental senses, profoundly affects our ability to communicate, engage with our environment, and maintain connections with others. Despite the long-standing presence of hearing aids in the market, accessibility to essential hearing aids has historically lagged, leaving many individuals isolated due to untreated hearing. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), ov... » read more

Technology of the Connected Home and Building Delivers On Safety, Comfort and Convenience


Devices for the home and office are increasingly differentiated by their intelligence and connectivity. Products that can sense their environment, detect users and other people, understand behavior, and respond in a way that humans find intuitive, provide higher value in the form of greater comfort, convenience and safety. This new generation of equipment for the smart home and building is made... » read more

The Crisis of Convergence: OT/ICS Cybersecurity 2023


In 2023, many forces came into play that led to unprecedented cybersecurity challenges in the OT/ICS domain. Not only did the issues of IT-OT convergence and Ransomware-as-a-Service persist, but geopolitical tensions precipitated increased state-sponsored and civilian hacker activities as well. In this report, TXOne Networks worked with Frost & Sullivan to survey 405 key IT and OT security ... » read more

MCU Changes At The Edge


Microcontrollers are becoming a key platform for processing machine learning at the edge due to two significant changes. First, they now can include multiple cores, including some for high performance and others for low power, as well as other specialized processing elements such as neural network accelerators. Second, machine learning algorithms have been pruned to the point where inferencing ... » read more

Securing The World’s Data: A Looming Challenge


A combination of increasingly complex designs, more connected devices, and a mix of different generations of security technology are creating a whole new set of concerns about the safety of data nearly everywhere. While security experts have been warning of a growing threat in electronics for decades, there have been several recent fundamental changes that elevate the risk. Among them: ... » read more

Reset Domain Crossing Verification


By Reetika and Sulabh Kumar Khare To meet low-power and high-performance requirements, system on chip (SoC) designs are equipped with several asynchronous and soft reset signals. These reset signals help to safeguard software and hardware functional safety as they can be asserted to speedily recover the system onboard to an initial state and clear any pending errors or events. By definiti... » read more

SRAM Security Concerns Grow


SRAM security concerns are intensifying as a combination of new and existing techniques allow hackers to tap into data for longer periods of time after a device is powered down. This is particularly alarming as the leading edge of design shifts from planar SoCs to heterogeneous systems in package, such as those used in AI or edge processing, where chiplets frequently have their own memory hi... » read more

Securing AI In The Data Center


AI has permeated virtually every aspect of our digital lives, from personalized recommendations on streaming platforms to advanced medical diagnostics. Behind the scenes of this AI revolution lies the data center, which houses the hardware, software, and networking infrastructure necessary for training and deploying AI models. Securing AI in the data center relies on data confidentiality, integ... » read more

Using AI/ML To Combat Cyberattacks


Machine learning is being used by hackers to find weaknesses in chips and systems, but it also is starting to be used to prevent breaches by pinpointing hardware and software design flaws. To make this work, machine learning (ML) must be trained to identify vulnerabilities, both in hardware and software. With proper training, ML can detect cyber threats and prevent them from accessing critic... » read more

Overcoming Chiplet Integration Challenges With Adaptability


Chiplets are exploding in popularity due to key benefits such as lower cost, lower power, higher performance and greater flexibility to meet specific market requirements. More importantly, chiplets can reduce time-to-market, thus decreasing time-to-revenue! Heterogeneous and modular SoC design can accelerate innovation and adaptation for many companies. What’s not to like about chiplets? Well... » read more
