On-Chip MCUs Excel At Power Management
By Ann Mutschler - 10 Oct, 2013 - Comments: 0

By Ann Steffora Mutschler When it comes to supplying power to an SoC, there is an increasing trend to make it more intelligent—how to control it more accurately, how it is monitored and how it communicates with different aspects of the chip. Traditional power supply models with analog supplies have less of this control, so a number of engineering teams are considering the use of on-chip m... » read more

Flexibility Improves Memory Interface Bandwidth
By Ann Mutschler - 10 Oct, 2013 - Comments: 0

In today’s SoCs, memory is the heart or at least one of the main elements of the design. As such, designing them carefully is paramount to achieving the best bandwidth, performance and power. Performance is very important to be able to access the memory and to trade and store information from different IPs with shared memories or local memories. From the power perspective, every access to... » read more

Why does EUV matter?
By Brian Bailey - 01 Oct, 2013 - Comments: 0

By Brian Bailey The end of Moore’s Law has been predicted for almost as long as the law has existed. It normally comes down to some great technological barrier that cannot be breached, only to find that a solution is just around the corner and the concerns fade until the next barrier is identified. At DAC this year (2013), there were many predictions about why Moore’s Law will end in th... » read more

Welcome To Semiconductor Engineering
By Ed Sperling - 01 Oct, 2013 - Comments: 3

What is it? Semiconductor Engineering is a new publication and portal for the semiconductor design, integration and manufacturing industry…but you’ll probably recognize most of us, and may even have been involved in the nearly 3,100 copyrighted stories, videos and blogs we’ve developed over the past five years. This is not marketing or pay-for-play information. It’s the kind of stuff th... » read more

Buying And Selling EDA Companies
By Ed Sperling - 26 Sep, 2013 - Comments: 0

By Ed Sperling Buying companies is the easy part. Integrating them is the hard part. It’s also the point where most acquisitions that go awry actually run into problems. There are widely different strategies for how to accomplish integration. Sometimes they work, other times they don’t. And sometimes both companies are surprised by the outcome—for better or worse. “Either you thi... » read more

New Architectures Redefining The Data Center
By Ed Sperling - 26 Sep, 2013 - Comments: 0

By Ed Sperling The cost of powering and cooling data centers, coupled with a better understanding of how enterprise-level applications can utilize hardware more effectively, are spawning a new wave of changes inside of data centers. Data centers are always evolving, but in this sector that evolution is deliberate and sometimes painstakingly slow. In fact, each major shift tends to last a de... » read more
