LP Spread-Spectrum Sensors
By Ernest Worthman - 10 Nov, 2014 - Comments: 0

It is pretty much an accepted fact that the common denominator of the IoT will be intelligent sensors. Virtually everything and everyone will be “sensed.” These sensors will collect an immense amount of data, and that data will have to be funneled for analysis at some point. Much of this will occur in real time, but some of it can be stored and forwarded, or collected on demand. Tethered... » read more

Move Over AI, Here Comes AmI
By Ernest Worthman - 10 Nov, 2014 - Comments: 0

Artificial Intelligence has received lots of attention, but a new term called Ambient Intelligence (AmI) is emerging as a cornerstone of the [getkc id="76" comment="Internet of Things"]. The term is a relatively unknown, but not all that new. AmI dates back 16 years—just a few years after the Internet saw its first widespread commercial adoption—when the concept first emerged as a collec... » read more

Boosting Battery Life In IoT Devices
By Ann Mutschler - 10 Nov, 2014 - Comments: 0

Honing in on a sweet spot for an IoT application can be very tricky, especially when it comes to a battery-based one. However, the Paper Battery Co. is working to do just that. With technology based on a, you guessed it, a paper battery, the company’s CEO Shreefal Mehta said the company believes the concept of having power that was able to go into spaces that today the batteries and rigid ... » read more

Week 22: Missed Opportunities
By Anne Cirkel - 07 Nov, 2014 - Comments: 0

Have you ever forgotten that you should be at a specific meeting or woken up in the middle of the night sure you’re not remembering something important? In our age of distraction, surely one of those remembralls from Harry Potter’s world would come in handy and find a huge market. Is anyone in the tech world working on one? (No, reminder apps don’t count.) Then there is pain of missing so... » read more

Week 21 – Visiting Detroit
By Anne Cirkel - 31 Oct, 2014 - Comments: 1

Who would have thought I’d end up sitting outside in the sunshine in downtown Detroit writing the first draft for my next blog. I’m here with a few of my Mentor colleagues to attend SAE Convergence and to have a discussion with GM about a possible DAC keynote. Stay tuned (and keep your fingers crossed) — I hope to tell you more about that at a later time. SAE Convergence is a two-day conf... » read more

Securing The IoT

Semiconductor Engineering sat down to discuss whether the [getkc id="76" comment="Internet of Things"] will be secure enough, or whether it will create new security issues, with Sami Nassar, general manager of [getentity id="22499" comment="NXP Semiconductor"]; Oleg Logvinov, director for special assignments at [getentity id="22331" comment="STMicroelectronics"]; and Lawrence Loh, application e... » read more

Week 20: Marketing Musings
By Anne Cirkel - 24 Oct, 2014 - Comments: 0

Last week I was on vacation in Pacific City at the Oregon Coast. We usually take our dogs there twice a year. They love the freedom to roam around on McPhillips Beach, less crowded than other beaches in the area, and we usually take them a couple of times up Cape Kiwanda’s Great Dune, more than 200 feet up. We were amazed how warm it still was and not just from the work of climbing the dune. ... » read more

The window for submitting to the IP and designer tracks opens on Oct. 23. It’s time to get ready and check with your management if you can present your work at DAC. You can find the submission details and a link to last year’s content here. You can even browse presentation examples from past designer tracks. If you are an EDA vendor, the designer track is a good opportunity for your use... » read more

Embedded At DAC
By Anne Cirkel - 10 Oct, 2014 - Comments: 0

It seems to be one of DAC’s best kept secrets – right up there with what happened to Free Monday – that about 30% of the conference content is focused on embedded systems and software (ESS). The call for contributions is still open and I want to remind you that you can submit your research work in ESS to DAC. When Leon Stok of IBM was General Chair for the 48th DAC he started our embedded... » read more
