TSMC Reports 4Q2023 Earnings: N2 Still On Track For 2025 Production
By Barry Pangrle - 25 Jan, 2024 - Comments: 0

TSMC reported their 4th quarter and end of year financial numbers for 2023. Year over year, net revenue was down 4.5% to NT$2,161.74 billion, but quarter over quarter revenue was essentially flat at NT$625.52 billion, so it appears that as 3nm is ramping up that revenue is improving. For the fourth quarter, 3nm contributed 15% of TSMC’s total wafer revenue, up from 6% in the third quarter ... » read more

Can Data Centers Afford To Turn Up The Heat?
By Mark Seymour - 25 Jan, 2024 - Comments: 0

Typically, when we discuss digital twin software for data centers, we highlight how engineers can use data center software to model complex thermals using physics-based simulation and find effective ways to cool IT equipment. However, there are compelling efficiency and cost-saving reasons for data center operators to actively seek to run their data centers hotter. But how can this be done wit... » read more

Blog Review: Jan. 24
By Jesse Allen - 24 Jan, 2024 - Comments: 0

Siemens' John McMillan finds that while 3D-IC capabilities are ready for mainstream, mass adoption success depends on how easily, effectively, and efficiently a solution can be delivered and points to five workflow adoption focus areas. Cadence's Andre Baguenie shows how to easily convert a logic signal to an electrical value using Verilog-AMS and the transition filter. Synopsys' Chris Cl... » read more

Understanding Noise And Sensitivity In Spectrum Analyzers
By Keysight - 24 Jan, 2024 - Comments: 0

Using a spectrum analyzer to measure noise signals requires several additional factors, such as sensitivity or how well the instrument can measure small signals. The analyzer’s noise floor specifies the average noise level (DANL) in dB, which is the amount of internally generated noise. Analyzers apply noise floor extension using an algorithm applied to subtract the analyzer’s noise contrib... » read more

Building A Comprehensive Multicloud Security Strategy: A Zero-Trust Approach
By Synopsys - 24 Jan, 2024 - Comments: 0

The traditional, perimeter-based security model is no longer sufficient in today’s dynamic, multicloud deployments. A zero-trust (ZT) security model, in which no user or system is inherently trusted, is becoming essential—it is a foundational capability that underpins security for multicloud strategies. The ZT security model operates on the principle of “Never trust. Always verify.” ... » read more

How Is The Chip Industry Really Doing?
By Ed Sperling - 17 Jan, 2024 - Comments: 2

Throughout 2023, the general consensus among chip industry watchers was that IC sales were flat to down, fueled by market saturation for smart phones and PCs and excess inventory and capacity in DRAM and flash. But that doesn't tell the whole story, which is becoming highly nuanced and complicated. Unlike in the past, understanding how the chip industry is faring is no longer a simple math f... » read more
