More Data, More Problems In Automotive
By Anne Meixner - 11 Feb, 2020 - Comments: 0

The race toward increasing levels of autonomy is being hampered by competitive concerns over sharing data across the automotive supply chain. Pushing past the initial ADAS levels into full autonomy is expected to take more than a decade, but the infrastructure for those systems, and making sure all assisted and autonomous vehicles work with other vehicles, is under development today. Still, ... » read more

Failure Analysis Becoming Critical To Reliability
By Ed Sperling - 11 Feb, 2020 - Comments: 0

Failure analysis is rapidly becoming a complex, costly and increasingly time-consuming must-do task as demand rises for reliability across a growing range of devices used in markets ranging from automotive to 5G. From the beginning, failure analysis has been about finding out what went wrong in semiconductor design and manufacturing. Different approaches, tools and equipment have improved ov... » read more

Automotive Industry On Course To Disruption And Evolution
By Doug Burcicki - 06 Feb, 2020 - Comments: 0

Consumers expect a lot from their vehicles. We expect vehicles to serve not only as transportation, but as hubs of entertainment and connectivity that can help us manage busy lives, or relax after long days. Someday, we may even expect our cars to do the driving themselves, without any human intervention. Automotive manufacturers consistently strive to meet these expectations by delivering high... » read more

By Ann Mutschler - 06 Feb, 2020 - Comments: 0

Programmable logic in automotive applications is essential, given the parade of almost constant updates and shifts in direction, but exactly where the technology will be used has become a moving target. This isn't entirely surprising in the automotive industry. Carmakers are moving into electrification and increasing levels of automation in fits and starts, sometimes with dramatic swings in ... » read more

Push-Button FMEDAs for Automotive Safety
By Mentor, a Siemens Business - 05 Feb, 2020 - Comments: 0

Automotive designs require functional safety analysis, typically accomplished using Failure Modes, Effects and Diagnostic Analysis (FMEDA), used to determine each safety goal’s diagnostic coverage. Writing an FMEDA is a highly tedious task, so we share a push-button solution for creating and automating the FMEDA process, giving engineers more time to focus on exploring design safety readiness... » read more
