Integration Challenges For RISC-V Designs
By Ed Sperling - 27 Feb, 2024 - Comments: 0

One of the big draws of RISC-V is that it allows design teams to create unique chips or chiplets and to make modifications to the instruction-set architecture. That extra degree of freedom also creates some issues when it comes to integrating those designs into packages or systems because they may require non-standard connectivity approaches. Frank Schirrmeister, vice president of marketing at ... » read more

DSP Techniques For High-Speed SerDes
By Ed Sperling - 23 Oct, 2023 - Comments: 0

Sensors everywhere, more connected devices, and the rollout of smart everything has created a flood of data. The question now is how to best handle all of that data, where to process it, and how to move it locally and to the outside network. Madhumita Sanyal, technical product manager at Synopsys, talks about the need for continuous performance improvements in SerDes, PCIe, NRZ, and PAM4, and w... » read more

How Sub-THz Will Impact the Future Of 6G
By Alejandro Escobar Calderon - 30 May, 2023 - Comments: 0

By Alejandro Escobar Calderon and Gerardo Orozco The world is more connected than ever before and, while this notion isn’t new, many of us fail to fully grasp at times the magnitude of connection growth speed. As of 2022, the world had around 13.2B IoT connections (Ericsson Mobile) with a YoY growth of 13%. Additionally, mobile network data traffic has doubled every two years since 2019. T... » read more

A new technical paper titled "Demystifying CXL Memory with Genuine CXL-Ready Systems and Devices" was published by researchers at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) and Intel Labs. Abstract: "The high demand for memory capacity in modern datacenters has led to multiple lines of innovation in memory expansion and disaggregation. One such effort is Compute eXpress Link (CXL)-based... » read more

Dealing With Performance Bottlenecks In SoCs
By Brian Bailey - 23 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

A surge in the amount of data that SoCs need to process is bogging down performance, and while the processors themselves can handle that influx, memory and communication bandwidth are straining. The question now is what can be done about it. The gap between memory and CPU bandwidth — the so-called memory wall — is well documented and definitely not a new problem. But it has not gone away... » read more

Boosting Data Center Memory Performance In The Zettabyte Era With HBM3
By Frank Ferro - 08 Dec, 2022 - Comments: 0

We are living in the Zettabyte era, a term first coined by Cisco. Most of the world’s data has been created over the past few years and it is not set to slow down any time soon. Data has become not just big, but enormous! In fact, according to the IDC Global Datasphere 2022-2026 Forecast, the amount of data generated over the next 5 years will be at least 2x the amount of data generated over ... » read more

HBM3 In The Data Center
By Ed Sperling - 17 Oct, 2022 - Comments: 0

Frank Ferro, senior director of product management at Rambus, talks about the forthcoming HBM3 standard, why this is so essential for AI chips and where the bottlenecks are today, what kinds of challenges are involved in working with this memory, and what impact chiplets and near-memory compute will have on HBM and bandwidth.     » read more

Automotive Bandwidth Issues Grow As Data Skyrockets
By Ann Mutschler - 02 Jun, 2022 - Comments: 0

Bandwidth requirements for future vehicles are set to explode as the amount of data moving within vehicles, between vehicles, and between vehicles and infrastructure, continues to grow rapidly. That data will be necessary for a variety of functions, some of which are here today and many of which are still in development. On the safety side, that includes everything from early warning systems... » read more
