Wave Hello To Improved Performance
By Luciana Caminha Afonso - 13 Sep, 2022 - Comments: 0

The International Energy Agency (IEA) estimated that in 2019, approximately 33 percent of all transportation-related CO2 emissions were generated by buses and light to heavy commercial vehicles. Transitioning to electric drives in this sector could clearly have a significant impact on reducing our emissions, but electrifying such demanding vehicles is not an easy task. Many of the concepts... » read more

Testing The Stack: DFT Is Ready For 3D Devices
By Martin Keim - 08 Sep, 2022 - Comments: 0

When existing advanced 2D designs already push the limits of design-for-test (DFT) tools, what hope do developers have of managing DFT for 3D devices? Can anyone afford the tool run time, on-chip area demand, pattern count, and test time? The answer, from an array of experts, is yes, there is a path to a scalable, affordable, and comprehensive DFT solution for 3D ICs. Well-covered strategies... » read more

Security Highlight: Honda Rolling-PWN Attack
By Ramiro Pareja Veredas - 01 Sep, 2022 - Comments: 0

The attack known as Rolling-PWN (CVE-2021-46145) [1] is the latest of a recent series of security issues affecting the car’s immobilizers and RKEs (Remote Keyless Entry, also known as the keyfob or remote control). Over the past years, we have seen how security researchers identified attacks that could open and even start cars from vendors like Tesla [2], Hyundai-Kia [3], VAG (Volkswagen, ... » read more

Processor Design Automation To Drive Innovation And Foster Differentiation
By Lauranne Choquin - 25 Aug, 2022 - Comments: 0

With semiconductor scaling no longer being an option in most situations, optimization means customizing the processor for your specific application. With the right approach and right tools, processor design automation can enable innovation and differentiation. One way of achieving this is to create an application-specific processor by owning the design. To do this efficiently, manual efforts sh... » read more

Plasma Dicing 101: The Basics
By Richard Barnett - 15 Aug, 2022 - Comments: 0

Taking place at the end of the semiconductor process flow, dicing is the process where the silicon wafer is finally turned into individual chips, or die, traditionally by means of a saw or laser. A saw blade, or laser, is used to cut the wafer along the areas between the chips called dicing lanes. This step separates the chips from the wafer making them ready to be packaged and fitted to whiche... » read more

Hertzbleed: Prime Time For Power Side Channel Countermeasures Or Novelty Attack?
By Jasper van Woudenberg - 04 Aug, 2022 - Comments: 0

Hertzbleed is a new side-channel attack that turns a power side channel into a timing side channel. That timing side channel may be exploitable even if the algorithm runs in a constant number of clock cycles. The novel observation is that the duration of a clock cycle can vary depending on the data processed on a CPU that uses dynamic frequency scaling. This allows a remote attacker to extract... » read more

Speech Applications Will Enable A New Category Of Edge AI Chips
By Anand Joshi - 04 Aug, 2022 - Comments: 0

Speech recognition has become an increasingly important feature in a wide range of devices. Wakewords such as Alexa or OK Google or Siri have now become a standard feature of wearables, smart-speakers, mobile phones, and even laptops. These devices have already shipped in millions of units and consumers are getting better at utilizing this feature. The wakeword recognition feature is slowly evo... » 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

Radio Frequency Filters For 5G: What They Are And Why They’re Worth The Trouble
By David Haynes - 21 Jul, 2022 - Comments: 0

By David Haynes, Daniel Shin, and Lidia Vereen­ In the recent blog article "Our wireless world – how Wi-Fi 6 will seamlessly integrate with 5G to keep us connected," David Haynes from our Customer Support Business Group (CSBG) explained how this new generation of wireless technologies will improve our connectivity by using higher frequencies and greater bandwidth than current 4G and Wi-F... » read more
