Run Simulations at Top Speed
By Ansys - 12 Aug, 2020 - Comments: 0

The Ansys Fluent solver can be so computationally demanding that complex simulations can take hours to complete. Ansys and Intel worked together to build a new smoother and optimize it for Intel Xeon Scalable processors to help reduce those long simulation times. This whitepaper reviews the results of performance testing conducted with Ansys Fluent 2020 R1 when making use of the Intel MKL sp... » read more

Arm's Greg Yeric takes a look at what semiconductor manufacturing might look like in 2030 as the price of equipment rises and possibilities for when the next upgrade to EUV, high numerical aperture, eventually runs out of steam. Synopsys' Taylor Armerding explains the difference between bugs and security flaws and why it's so important to pay attention to potential problems in a design's spe... » read more

Better Analytics Needed For Assembly
By Anne Meixner - 11 Aug, 2020 - Comments: 0

Package equipment sensors, newer inspection techniques, and analytics enable quality and yield improvement, but all of those will require a bigger investment on the part of assembly houses. That's easier said than done. Assembly operations long have operated on thin profit margins because their tasks were considered easy to manage. Much has changed over the past several years, however. The r... » read more

Auto Chip Reliability Opens Door To Other Industries
By SE Staff - 11 Aug, 2020 - Comments: 1

Digital chips in the semiconductor industry evolve from each other. Ideas flow into each other over the years, with occasional big leaps in evolution. The term ‘evolution’ fits because one chip evolves to perfectly optimized for one industry niche. But what happens when one industry’s chip becomes a useful for other industries because it is more cost-effective than what is being used i... » read more

M&A Goodix acquired Dream Chip Technologies. Shenzhen-based Goodix is known for fingerprint and other biometric sensors and authentication solutions, as well as Arm and RISC-V based MCUs. It is reportedly among the ten largest Chinese chipmakers, according to EqualOcean. Terms of the deal were not disclosed. Based in Garbsen, Germany, Dream Chip Technologies originally was founded in ... » read more

Blog Review: Aug. 5
By Jesse Allen - 05 Aug, 2020 - Comments: 0

Rambus' Scott Best explains some more sophisticated chip attacks, such as side-channel attacks, clocking attacks, fault injection, and infrared emission analysis, and countermeasures that can be adopted against them. Arm's Mark O'Connor considers ways that deployed neural networks could adapt to examples it sees in real-world use and generate more accurate predictions. Mentor's Chris Spea... » read more

Analog Devices (ADI) acquired the HDMI business of Invecas. “The acquisition of Invecas' HDMI business positions ADI to deliver more complete solutions throughout the entire customer journey – from chip, to certification, to end product," said John Hassett, Senior Vice President, Industrial and Consumer at Analog Devices. "We are thrilled to enhance ADI’s capabilities with the addition of... » read more

Open-Source Verification
By Brian Bailey - 30 Jul, 2020 - Comments: 1

Ask different people what open-source verification means and you will get a host of different answers. They range from the verification of open-source hardware, to providing an open-source verification infrastructure, to providing open-source stream generators or reference models, to open-source simulators and formal verification engines. Verification is about reducing risk. "Verification is... » read more

Blog Review: July 29
By Jesse Allen - 29 Jul, 2020 - Comments: 0

Rambus' Scott Best digs into low-cost attacks against security chips that are often used to gauge how resistant and well-designed they are and defensive countermeasures that can be taken. Mentor's Colin Walls urges embedded developers to put a priority on writing clear, maintainable code and considers when using a higher level language like C++ may be helpful. Synopsys' Scott Knowlton fin... » read more
