Introducing GICv5: Scalable And Secure Interrupt Management For Arm
By Christoffer Dall - 12 Jun, 2025 - Comments: 0

As Arm-based infrastructure continues to scale across markets, demands on system components increase. This can mean more interrupts, or signals from hardware/software to a processor to pause a task and handle another. Arm’s Generic Interrupt Controller Architecture (GIC) helps manage the communication between devices and processors efficiently. It makes sure the right processor handles the r... » read more

Accelerating Chiplet-Based SoC Design For AI-Defined Vehicles
By Robert Schweiger - 05 Jun, 2025 - Comments: 0

Today, we are witnessing a paradigm shift towards a more modular design approach that disaggregates SoC functions into various chiplets, each optimized for specific functionalities. Chiplets offer more modularity, which enables product scalability and customization, which is key for AI-defined vehicles, the next generation of software-defined vehicles (SDVs). Cadence’s Helium Virtual and H... » read more

AR/VR Glasses Taking Shape With New Chips
By Liz Allan - 05 Jun, 2025 - Comments: 0

More augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and mixed reality (MR) wearables are coming, but how they are connected, and where image and other data is processed, are still in flux. Ray-Ban Meta AI glasses, for example, look like classic eyeglasses, but they rely on a tethered smart phone for such functions as taking pictures, AI voice assistance, and object identification. In contrast... » read more
