Forgotten Essence Of The Backend Penetration Testing


At Riscure we have observed many severe security issues exploited by hackers even in previously certified solutions. In recent years, certification, which aims to minimize security risks, has become more important, especially in the mobile application industry. However, certification compliance is sometimes still not sufficient. This is especially noticeable when the solution’s functionality ... » read more

Countering The Threat From Quantum Computers


Quantum computers hold much promise for the future, yet their computing power poses a significant threat to current security methods such as public key cryptography. In this white paper, Infineon will examine this issue in detail, propose an approach for future security based on TPMs and discuss current TPM technology. The reader can expect to gain a good appreciation of the security issues sur... » read more

The QA Exchange Deck In Solido Crosscheck Enables An IP Qualification Handshake


This paper describes how the QA exchange deck in Siemens EDA’s Solido Crosscheck software can be used to capture and exchange IP qualification requirements. It shows how the QA exchange deck can be used as part of the IP validation framework in Solido Crosscheck to provide an IP signoff handshake between IP suppliers and integrators.

Fixed-Point And Floating-Point FMCW Radar Signal Processing With Tensilica DSPs


Automotive Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) applications are increasingly demanding radar modules with better capability and performance. These applications require sophisticated radar processing algorithms and powerful Digital Signal Processors (DSPs) to run them. Because these embedded systems have limited power and cost budgets, the DSP’s Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) needs t... » read more

EMC Pre-Compliance Fundamentals


Once you’ve designed your electronic product, it’s time to release it to market, right? Well, not exactly. As with any product development, you need to first test the device you’re designing to validate that it behaves as expected. One such important test that all electronic devices must eventually pass are EMI (electromagnetic interference) compliance tests. Passing EMI tests d... » read more

Achieve 10X Faster CDC Debug Leveraging Machine Learning


Over the years, system-on-chip (SoC) design sizes have crossed the billion-gate mark. Higher complexity has been introduced within semiconductor designs to deliver desired functionality. The number of asynchronous clock and reset domains is growing heavily within these complex SoCs, leading to millions of clock domain crossing (CDC) violations at the SoC level. Each of these violations ... » read more

Navigating The Intersection Of Safety And Security


Vehicle systems and the semiconductors used within them are some of the most complex electronics seen today. In the past, electronics going into vehicle systems implemented flat architectures with isolated functions controlling various components of the power train and vehicle dynamics. These electronic systems communicated primarily through legacy bus interconnect protocols, like controller... » read more

DeepGBASS: Deep Guided Boundary-Aware Semantic Segmentation


Image semantic segmentation is ubiquitously used in scene understanding applications, such as AI Camera, which require high accuracy and efficiency. Deep learning has significantly advanced the state-of-the-art in semantic segmentation. However, many of recent semantic segmentation works only consider class accuracy and ignore the accuracies at the boundaries between semantic classes. To improv... » read more

Scatterometry-Based Methodologies For Characterization Of MRAM Technology


Magnetoresistive random-access memory (MRAM) technology and recent developments in fabrication processes have shown it to be compatible with Si-based complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technologies. The perpendicular spin transfer torque MRAM (STT-MRAM) configuration opened up opportunities for an ultra-dense MRAM evolution and was most widely adapted for its scalability. Insertion ... » read more

Heterogeneous Integration: Fertile Ground For Medical And Biotech Innovation


Sensing components in medical and biotech devices often place severe restrictions on the assembly methods that can be employed, which is part of what is driving heightened demand for heterogeneous integration (HI). It is the newest frontier for the medical and biotech manufacturing services industry to contribute our own innovations by developing the processes to build these unique combinations... » read more
