Edge And IoT Security Turning A Corner
By Ed Sperling - 09 Jan, 2025 - Comments: 0

Security is beginning to improve for a wide range of IoT and edge devices due to better tools, the implementation of new standards and methodologies, and an increasing level of collaboration and communication across different market segments that in the past had little or no interaction. Until recently, many vendors in cost-sensitive markets offered the bare minimum of security. To make matt... » read more

How Software-Defined Vehicles Change Auto Chip Design
By Adam Kovac - 09 Jan, 2025 - Comments: 0

The shift to software-defined vehicles is changing nearly every aspect of automotive design, from what hardware is added into vehicles, when it gets added, and what gets left behind. Moving key features to software rather than hardware allows carmakers to bring new features to market faster, at a lower cost, and to modify those features more quickly. It is also expected to drive up the value... » read more

ISO 26262’s Importance Widens Beyond Automotive
By Adam Kovac - 09 Jan, 2025 - Comments: 0

The ISO 26262 standard, which has become a mainstay since the trend toward vehicle electrification really took root a decade ago, is starting to gain traction in markets outside of automotive chip and system design. At the center of this expansion is a focus on safety under a variety of conditions — extreme temperatures, unexpected vibration, or a collision that is unavoidable. This includ... » read more

The Use Of GPU Compute In Automotive
By Eleanor Brash - 09 Jan, 2025 - Comments: 0

The pace of innovation in automotive is accelerating. Electrification, advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and vehicle connectivity are revolutionizing the in-car experience, which is now largely determined by the capabilities of the car’s software and electronic hardware. When a vehicle can receive software upgrades while it is on the road, the electronic control units (ECUs) that a... » read more

Automakers And Industry Need Specific, Extremely Robust, Heterogeneously Integrated Chiplet Solutions
By Andy Heinig - 12 Dec, 2024 - Comments: 0

Chiplets offer great potential for the automotive and industrial sectors, especially as these applications often have high performance requirements but are needed only in small quantities. The modular principle behind chiplets enables efficient design and production: individual components have to be produced only once and can then be flexibly combined to create tailored solutions. This offers m... » read more

Ghostbusting With Simulation: Solving Engineering Challenges In Automotive Radar Development
By Laura Carter - 12 Dec, 2024 - Comments: 0

Probably the biggest trick to the adoption of full autonomy in the automotive space is learning how to safely achieve a level of perception that matches that of a human driver. Carmakers are rising to the challenge with a combination of advanced camera, radar, and lidar sensing technologies, machine learning, and artificial intelligence that makes self-driving possible. This includes the adva... » read more

Efficient ESD Verification For 2.5/3D Automotive ICs
By Dina Medhat - 09 Dec, 2024 - Comments: 0

Protection against electrostatic discharge (ESD) events is an extremely important aspect of integrated circuit (IC) design and verification, particularly for 2.5/3D designs targeted for automotive systems. ESD events cause severe damage to ICs due to a sudden and unexpected flow of electrical current between two electrically charged objects. This current may be caused by contact, an electrical ... » read more

Auto Chip Aging Accelerates In Hot Climates
By Ed Sperling - 09 Dec, 2024 - Comments: 1

Automotive chips are aging significantly faster than expected in hot climates with sustained high temperatures, raising concerns about the reliability of electrified vehicles over time and whether advanced-node chips are the right choice for safety-critical applications. Many of the most advanced electronics used in vehicles today are ASIL D-compliant, expected to function up to 125° C. But... » read more

High-Fidelity Noise Prediction for Aerospace and Automotive Industries
By Cadence - 04 Dec, 2024 - Comments: 0

Accurate noise prediction is essential for designing quieter, more efficient aircraft and vehicles. However, traditional experimental methods are often expensive, time-consuming, and limited in scope. This white paper outlines how an advanced computational tool leverages large-eddy simulations (LES) to deliver accurate, cost-effective aeroacoustics simulations. Key Takeaways: Advance... » read more
