TCAD-Based Radiation Modeling Technique For Reliable Aerospace Chips
By Ian Land - 28 Jul, 2022 - Comments: 0

By Ian Land and Ricardo Borges We demand a lot from the electronic components that bring our devices and systems to life. This is particularly true when it comes to semiconductors for space applications. From satellites to spacecraft, aerospace and defense equipment must tolerate the most extreme of operating conditions in order to perform their jobs safely and reliably. How do you ensure... » read more

Radar For Automotive: Basics Of FMCW Radar
By Marta Martinez Vazquez - 28 Jul, 2022 - Comments: 0

Radar (acronym for Radio Detection and Ranging) uses radio waves to detect objects in the environment. It allows determining the distance (known as range), angular position (bearing), and velocity. Radar technology was developed for military use during World War II, but has now many civil applications, including air or marine traffic control, astronomy, ocean and meteorological monitoring, alti... » read more

DAC 2022: Is It Too Risky Not To Adopt RISC-V?
By Brett Cline - 28 Jul, 2022 - Comments: 0

I was fortunate enough to attend the 59th Design Automation Conference (DAC) in San Francisco. Aside from the Covid closure in 2020 I’ve been going to DAC since 1995. Many people, including me, arrived to San Francisco with a bit of trepidation. After all, 58th DAC had low attendance and it was only about 7 months ago. What was the DAC 2022 conference going to be like? How would Covid affec... » read more

Digital Transformation At The Farnborough Airshow 2022
By Frank Schirrmeister - 28 Jul, 2022 - Comments: 0

Alternating every year with the Paris Airshow, the Farnborough Airshow was back to an in-person event this July 2022. It focused on six key themes—space, defense, sustainability, innovation, future flight, and workforce. Within these themes, digitalization and data emerged as very prominent messages. Some of the prototypes and actual devices on display at the event felt like they were taken s... » read more

Understanding Linear Regulators and their Key Performance Parameters
By Renesas - 27 Jul, 2022 - Comments: 0

Low-dropout regulators, commonly known as LDOs, are used extensively in a wide variety of electronic applications across many different industries. An LDO is generally perceived as a simple and inexpensive way to regulate and control an output voltage that is delivered from a higher input voltage supply. However, cost and simplicity are not the only reason for their widespread use. In fact, tod... » read more

Best Practices For Visibility Architecture Tap Planning
By Keysight - 27 Jul, 2022 - Comments: 0

When it comes to data monitoring, ensuring proper access to network data is one of the most critical things you can do. Missing and incorrect data will slow down the analysis of problems by your security monitoring and tools. It may also lead to false conclusions by those tools. In turn, this can lead to missed security threats, false positives for security threats and network impairments, and ... » read more

Microstrip Antenna Design
By Cadence - 27 Jul, 2022 - Comments: 0

A significant performance element in communication and radar systems, as well as wireless devices, is the antenna, which may be defined as a transducer between a guided electromagnetic (EM) wave propagating along a transmission line, and an EM wave propagating in an unbounded medium (usually free space) or vice-versa.1 The antenna is required to transmit or receive EM energy with directional an... » read more

Blog Review: July 27
By Jesse Allen - 27 Jul, 2022 - Comments: 0

Siemens' Keith Felton expects a greater emphasis on several areas of semiconductor package design next year, including accelerated growth of heterogeneous integration, multiple die, and chiplet SiPs, emergence and adoption of organic-based interposers, and early detection of thermal and electromechanical issues. Cadence's Paul McLellan visits Imec to find out about getting the heat out of 3D... » read more

Blog Review: July 20
By Jesse Allen - 20 Jul, 2022 - Comments: 0

Synopsys' Ron Lowman examines the various neural networks used in camera applications, the balancing act between camera lens choice and neural networks implemented, and how IP and embedded vision processors help optimize the designs. Siemens' Katie Tormala considers the importance of acoustic performance in consumer electronics and why it's important to understand the relationships between t... » read more
