Week In Review: Auto, Security, Pervasive Computing
By Susan Rambo - 28 Apr, 2023 - Comments: 0

Pervasive computing Renesas introduced a narrowband Internet of Things (NB-IoT) chipset and dev kit for the Indian market. The LTE NB-IoT modem chipset, the RH1NS200, was designed for Indian telecommunications carriers by targeting bands 1,3, 5 and 8 and by following India’s carrier-approved LTE protocol stack and software suite. Low power usage is built in — it has a low Power Saving Mode... » read more

EDA Makes A Frenzied Push Into Machine Learning
By Ed Sperling - 27 Apr, 2023 - Comments: 0

Machine learning is becoming a competitive prerequisite for the EDA industry. Big chipmakers are endorsing and demanding it, and most EDA companies are deploying it for one or more steps in the design flow, with plans to add much more over time. In recent weeks, the three largest EDA vendors have made sweeping announcements about incorporating ML into their tools at their respective user eve... » read more

True 3D-IC Problems
By Brian Bailey - 27 Apr, 2023 - Comments: 0

Placing logic on logic may sound like a small step, but several problems must be overcome to make it a reality. True 3D involves wafers stacked on top of each other in a highly integrated manner. This is very different from 2.5D integration, where logic is placed side-by-side, connected by an interposer. And there are some intermediate solutions today where significant memory is stacked on l... » read more

Pervasive computing Broadcom announced delivery of its Jericho3-AI fabric for artificial intelligence (AI) networks, which delivers 26 petabits per second of Ethernet bandwidth. That is roughly four times the bandwidth of the previous generation, at a 40% power savings per gigabit. AMD released the Ryzen Embedded 5000 Series processors for customers requiring power-efficient processors opt... » read more

Blog Review: April 19

Synopsys' Soren Smidstrup and Kerim Genc explore how materials modeling helps battery designers explore the wide playing field for new battery materials and optimize performance by co-designing the structure and chemistry of new batteries, ultimately shortening development time and cost. Siemens' Stephen Chavez finds that enabling multiple engineers to work simultaneously within the same PCB... » read more

Week In Review: Design, Low Power
By Jesse Allen - 14 Apr, 2023 - Comments: 0

Arm and Intel Foundry Services inked a multi-generation agreement to enable chip designers to build Arm-based SoCs on the Intel 18A process. The initial focus is mobile SoC designs, but the deal allows for potential expansion into automotive, IoT, data center, aerospace, and government applications. IFS and Arm will undertake design technology co-optimization (DTCO) to optimize chip design and ... » read more

Public USB phone charging stations are now another vector that bad actors can use to plant malware and steal data on devices — known as "juice jacking," according to the United States’ Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The FCC is encouraging people to stay away from these public charging stations, found in airports and hotels, because of bad actors can install malware on the charging... » read more

Thermal Integrity Challenges Grow In 2.5D
By Ann Mutschler - 13 Apr, 2023 - Comments: 3

Thermal integrity is becoming much harder to predict accurately in 2.5D and 3D-IC, creating a cascade of issues that can affect everything from how a system behaves to reliability in the field. Over the past decade, silicon interposer technology has evolved from a simple interconnect into a critical enabler for heterogeneous integration. Interposers today may contain tens of dies or chiplets... » read more
