On-Chip Clock And Process Monitoring Using STAR Hierarchical System’s Measurement Unit
By Synopsys - 07 Dec, 2017 - Comments: 0

Functional safety is one of the most critical priorities for system-on-chips (SoCs) that are involved in automotive, aerospace and industrial applications. These requirements are driven by standards such as ISO 26262 and are the backbone of the design and testing of automotive ICs. Synopsys’ STAR Hierarchical System’s Measurement Unit helps ensure the accuracy of on-chip clock frequency and... » read more

How To Sleep Easier If You Test Auto ICs For A Living
By Andrew Macleod - 07 Dec, 2017 - Comments: 0

Last month, I looked at the product definition process of automotive ICs, using the $7 billion microcontroller market as an illustration of design exploration to optimize performance, features, die size and product cost. Now I’d like to look at the back end of the process — the final IC testing that’s still critical no matter how sound the upfront work in defining a featuring set and aptl... » read more

The Road To Autonomous Driving Is Paved With New Opportunities For Chip Companies
By Robert Vamosi - 07 Dec, 2017 - Comments: 0

The migration from human-driven to self-driven vehicles in the next few years will provide the semiconductor industry with new opportunities. Vehicles on the road today have so far featured only a few digital enhancements and even less automation. Indeed, the most noticeable enhancements have been made in the advancement of the infotainment console within the dashboard – the ability to str... » read more

Preventing IoT Edge Device Vulnerabilities
By Mentor, a Siemens Business - 07 Dec, 2017 - Comments: 0

As an EDA toolchain provider, Mentor keeps a close eye on security issues that occur in the world of electronics. We see volumes of research centered on protecting complex SoCs from attacks and interesting studies about detecting malicious logic in these ICs. But, security issues around IoT edge devices are rarely mentioned in the literature. However, the projected billions of IoT edge devices ... » read more

Hyperscaling The Data Center
By Kevin Fogarty - 07 Dec, 2017 - Comments: 1

Enterprise data centers increasingly will look and behave more like slimmed-down versions of hyperscale data centers as chipmakers and other suppliers adapt systems developed for their biggest customers to in-house IT faciilities. The new chips and infrastructure that will serve as building blocks in these facilities will be more power-efficient, make better use of space and generate less he... » read more

Securing The Industrial Internet Of Things
By Rambus - 07 Dec, 2017 - Comments: 0

Objects, sensors, actuators and controllers that were once designed for stand-alone operation are now increasingly connected by means of intelligent software and networks – forming the basis of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). To be sure, GE defines the IIoT as “a network of a multitude of devices connected by communications technologies that results in systems that can monitor, co... » read more

Securing Automotive Over-The-Air (SOTA) Updates
By Joe Gullo - 07 Dec, 2017 - Comments: 1

Modern vehicles are essentially a network of networks – equipped with a range of embedded communication methods and capabilities. Consequently, there is broad industry consensus that vehicle cyber security should rank as a top priority for the automotive sector. In this context, automotive OEMs have begun to provide secure over-the-air (SOTA) updates for various systems. Recently, the non-... » read more

Enabling Automotive Design
By Ann Mutschler - 07 Dec, 2017 - Comments: 0

Falling automotive electronics prices, propelled by advances in chip manufacturing and innovations on the design side, are driving a whole new level of demand across the automotive industry. Innovations that were introduced at the luxury end of the car market over the past couple years already are being implemented in more standard vehicles. The single biggest driver of change in the automo... » read more
