Automotive System Design Challenges
By Ann Mutschler - 29 Jan, 2015 - Comments: 0

The automotive semiconductor market did exceptionally well last year. IHS reported strong vehicle production growth and increased semiconductor content in 2014, and that trend is likely to continue with semiconductor revenue for the automotive segment to reach $31 billion this year, up from $29 billion last year. The market research company affirmed the fastest growing segments for automoti... » read more

Mentor's J. VanDomelen zeroes in on the two most interesting discoveries from the Philae comet landing. So what was that "eerie cyclical clicking" sound? Synopsys' Ray Varghese digs into basic coherent transaction testing for AXI/ACE compliant interconnects. You might want to put on another pot of coffee. Cadence's Brian Fuller offers some deep insights into synthesis, verification and te... » read more

Trouble Spots And Optimism For 2015
By Ed Sperling - 18 Dec, 2014 - Comments: 0

Most top executives in the semiconductor industry are bullish about 2015 and even beyond, particularly as the [getkc id="76" comment="Internet of Things"] begins to drive new markets and market mash-ups, and as more semiconductors find their way into markets such as automotive, health-care and manufacturing. But it's not an entirely rosy picture, and top executives point to potential trouble sp... » read more

Is The Stacked Die Ecosystem Stagnating?
By Ann Mutschler - 18 Dec, 2014 - Comments: 2

It is now widely agreed that not much has been happening in terms of adoption for 2.5D interposer and 3D ICs. “It seems like everyone is still at the starting line waiting for the race to begin," said Javier DeLaCruz, senior director of engineering of [getentity id="22242" e_name="eSilicon"]. "Interposer assembly and IP availability for effectively using the [getkc id="82" comment="2.5D IC... » read more

Manufacturing Constraint Fears Grow
By Ed Sperling - 18 Dec, 2014 - Comments: 0

The semiconductor industry could become a victim of its own success. With so many semiconductors being consumed inside of cars, home electronics and industry, capacity shortages are beginning to surface in some areas. Foundries set rates depending upon a complex mix of process technology, equipment depreciation, customer demand and the need to push customers from one node the next depending ... » read more

The ABCs Of ISO 26262
By Kurt Shuler - 18 Dec, 2014 - Comments: 2

Over the last one-and-a-half years that I have been elbow-deep working on the FlexNoC Resilience Package, I’ve been keeping a running list of ISO 26262 abbreviations and acronyms that reoccurred in my work, and kept confusing me whenever I performed a “context switch” from working on different projects to working on my functional safety products. I’ve received feedback that my list is h... » read more

The Week In Review: Design/IoT
By Ed Sperling - 05 Dec, 2014 - Comments: 0

Tools Calypto rolled out its third-generation high-level synthesis platform after three years of development, adding granular control over which regions are optimized and the ability to work top-down and bottom-up—basically allowing designers to zoom in and out as needed. In addition, the tool has a 10X increase in capacity and supports SystemC and C++. eSilicon unveiled its online conf... » read more

Conflicting Needs For IoT Edge Designs
By Ed Sperling - 20 Nov, 2014 - Comments: 1

The mad rush has begun to hype the [getkc id="76" comment="Internet of Things"], but the path forward isn't quite as straightforward as the marketers would like it to be. ICs used at the edge of the IoT—the ones that gather information to be controlled by smart phones or tablets and transmitted to devices for processing and data analytics—need to be designed differently than the initial for... » read more

Making Models Interoperable
By Ann Mutschler - 20 Nov, 2014 - Comments: 0

As engineering teams raise the vision of their design to a higher level of abstraction, the use of behavioral modeling is growing. While not ubiquitous, the concepts are gelling, which at least is helping the industry discuss the technology more intelligently and determine where automation makes sense. One of the biggest concerns with behavioral modeling is what engineering teams want to do ... » read more

An Inside Look At The GlobalFoundries-IBM Deal
By Ed Sperling - 20 Nov, 2014 - Comments: 3

GlobalFoundries' proposed acquisition of IBM Microelectronics is the kind of deal that will have business schools talking for many years to come—a gargantuan combination of expertise and technology, built on the back of high-profile business successes and failures, long-running legal struggles and global politics—with far-reaching implications for all parts of the semiconductor supply chain... » read more
