Automotive Security Vulnerabilities From Afar
By Paul McLellan - 02 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

Don't confuse automotive security with automotive safety, things like functional safety (FuSa) and ISO 26262. You need security to have safety. But security is its own thing. In a modern connected car, there are two places for security vulnerabilities. One is in the car itself. And the other is back at base in the automotive manufacturer's (OEM in the jargon) data centers, which the cars are co... » read more

Where And Why AI Makes Sense In Cars
By Ed Sperling - 02 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

Experts at the Table: Semiconductor Engineering sat down to talk about where AI makes sense in automotive and what are the main challenges, with Geoff Tate, CEO of Flex Logix; Veerbhan Kheterpal, CEO of Quadric; Steve Teig, CEO of Perceive; and Kurt Busch, CEO of Syntiant. What follows are excerpts of that conversation, which were held in front of a live audience at DesignCon. Part two of this... » read more

Intelligent Traceability For ISO 26262
By Siemens EDA - 01 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

Requirements driven development is a foundational component of any safety critical lifecycle, including ISO 26262, the state-of-the-art standard guiding safety in the development of automotive electronic devices. At face value, requirements seem like a very straight forward concept. Project teams write requirements. Requirements are implemented into the product. The product is tested... » read more

Automotive E/E Architectures with Safety Related Availability (SaRa) Requirements For Highly Autonomous Driving
By Technical Paper Link - 29 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 0

A technical paper titled "Multi-objective optimization for safety-related available E/E architectures scoping highly automated driving vehicles" was written by researchers at Robert Bosch GmBbH and University of Luxembourg. Abstract: "Megatrends such as Highly Automated Driving (HAD) (SAE ≥ Level-3), electrification, and connectivity are reshaping the automotive industry. Together with th... » read more

Fixed-Point And Floating-Point FMCW Radar Signal Processing With Tensilica DSPs
By Cadence - 25 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 0

Automotive Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) applications are increasingly demanding radar modules with better capability and performance. These applications require sophisticated radar processing algorithms and powerful Digital Signal Processors (DSPs) to run them. Because these embedded systems have limited power and cost budgets, the DSP’s Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) needs t... » read more

Choosing The Correct High-Bandwidth Memory
By Ann Mutschler - 25 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 0

The number of options for how to build high-performance chips is growing, but the choices for attached memory have barely budged. To achieve maximum performance in automotive, consumer, and hyperscale computing, the choices come down to one or more flavors of DRAM, and the biggest tradeoff is cost versus speed. DRAM remains an essential component in any of these architectures, despite years ... » read more

Navigating The Intersection Of Safety And Security
By Siemens EDA - 23 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 0

Vehicle systems and the semiconductors used within them are some of the most complex electronics seen today. In the past, electronics going into vehicle systems implemented flat architectures with isolated functions controlling various components of the power train and vehicle dynamics. These electronic systems communicated primarily through legacy bus interconnect protocols, like controller... » read more

An OSAT Perspective On Semiconductor Market Trends
By Vik Chaudhry - 19 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 0

For the semiconductor industry, 2022 was a very interesting year. On one hand, it witnessed shortages in the supply chain. On the other hand, the macro-economic situation turned and demand for several consumer and computing devices plummeted. A trade war with China and ensuing localization of supply chain with passage of CHIPS act took shape in 2022. The auto industry is still recovering from t... » read more

EV Architectures Evolving For Communication, Connectivity
By Marie C. Baca - 18 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 0

Electric vehicle architectures are rapidly evolving to accommodate multiple forms of connectivity, including in-vehicle, vehicle-to-vehicle, and vehicle-to-infrastructure communication. But so far, automotive OEMs have yet to come to a consensus on the winning technologies or the necessary standards — all of which will be necessary as cars become increasingly autonomous and increasingly inter... » read more

Multiphysics Analysis of Traction Motors: Accelerating Innovation in Electric Mobility Solutions
By Ansys - 11 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 0

Between 2021 and 2023, electric vehicles (EVs) represent a $7 trillion market opportunity, and it’s only projected to increase. In a rapidly growing EV market, automakers are turning to advanced design, testing, and manufacturing technologies. Optimized system design requires the evaluation of many different concepts, topologies, and electronic interactions across disciplines. Design and s... » read more
