The Power of Memory in Camera Monitor Systems
By Winbond - 03 Apr, 2024 - Comments: 0

According to the World Health Organization, approximately 1.19 million people die each year as a result of road traffic crashes. The challenge automakers have is deciding what types of cameras or sensors to implement to help prevent accidents, and making sure they meet various regulations. Camera monitoring systems or (CMS) represent a significant milestone in the ongoing evolution of automo... » read more

Automotive Semiconductor March Madness 2024
By Frank Schirrmeister - 28 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 0

As the US is amid "Basketball March Madness" – hard to ignore when you live in Silicon Valley – it also felt like the month of "Automotive Madness." We saw numerous announcements and events across the design chain, from semiconductor IP to software and IP providers to automotive OEMs. And in all of them, data-transport architectures, and with that networks-on-chips (NoCs), are critical. Ma... » read more

Jumpstarting The Automotive Chiplet Ecosystem
By Steve Brown - 28 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 0

The automotive industry stands on the cusp of a technological renaissance, ushering in an era where vehicles aren't just tools of transportation, but interconnected nodes within a vast network of software-defined mobility. Central to this transformation is the concept of chiplets—miniaturized, modular components that can be mixed, matched, and scaled to create powerful, application-specific i... » read more

Leveraging Automotive Chip Design Techniques For Space-Borne Applications
By Synopsys - 27 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 0

Space-borne electronics must operate in an unforgiving environment with harsh conditions and little opportunity to repair failing components. A combination of functionally safe design, RHBD, and robust IP is required. Fortunately, automotive applications share many of the same challenges, and techniques to address these challenges are well established and proven. This white paper surveys the ma... » read more

Easing Automotive Software Migration

The automotive industry is on the cusp of seismic change. Multiple trends are occurring simultaneously that are impacting the entire supply chain of the industry. Software-defined vehicles (SDVs), autonomy and electrification are motivating automotive OEMs to holistically rethink the vehicle’s software and hardware development cycles. To better manage multiple compute elements and increasi... » read more

Changes And Challenges In Auto MCUs
By Ed Sperling - 13 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 0

Microcontrollers have been a key component in automotive for years, starting with single-core devices with limited on-chip memory for very basic functions, and evolving toward multi-core systems with more memory for more complex tasks. But as vehicles become increasingly automated, microcontrollers are changing significantly, and so is the perception of how to utilize them. These new devices ne... » read more

Interoperability And Automation Yield A Scalable And Efficient Safety Workflow
By Ann Keffer - 07 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 0

By Ann Keffer, Arun Gogineni, and James Kim Cars deploying ADAS and AV features rely on complex digital and analog systems to perform critical real-time applications. The large number of faults that need to be tested in these modern automotive designs make performing safety verification using a single technology impractical. Yet, developing an optimized safety methodology with specific f... » read more

Maximizing Energy Efficiency For Automotive Chips
By William Ruby - 07 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 0

Silicon chips are central to today’s sophisticated advanced driver assistance systems, smart safety features, and immersive infotainment systems. Industry sources estimate that now there are over 1,000 integrated circuits (ICs), or chips, in an average ICE car, and twice as many in an average EV. Such a large amount of electronics translates into kilowatts of power being consumed – equiva... » read more

Complex Safety Mechanisms Require Interoperability And Automation For Validation And Metric Closure
By Siemens EDA - 06 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 0

The race to autonomous mobility among the automobile manufacturers is driving the evolution of the underlying semiconductors. As a result, semiconductor technologies are moving towards higher densities and lower operating voltages, and this migration is introducing increasing sensitivity to random hardware failures – the failures which occur unpredictably over a semiconductor’s lifetime. Mo... » read more
