Synopsys’ Graham Allan looks at enhancements in the LPDDR5X standard, such as a speed increase from 6.4Gbps to 8.5Gbps using the same 1.1V core voltage as LPDDR5 alongside better signal integrity, reliability, and battery efficiency. Cadence’s Krunal Patel examines the essential components and operation of MACsec, a security protocol to ensure the confidentiality and integrity of data tr... » read more

Why A DSP Is Indispensable In The New World of AI
By Cadence - 25 Oct, 2023 - Comments: 0

Chips being designed today for the automotive, mobile handset, AI-IoT (artificial intelligence - Internet of things), and other AI applications will be fabricated in a year or two, designed into end products that will hit the market in three or more years, and then have a product lifecycle of at least five years. These chips will be used in systems with a large number and various types of senso... » read more

Siemens' Stephen Chavez suggests including analog mixed signal analysis and board level parasitics within the design process from the earliest electrical design stage and throughout final release of the PCB design. Synopsys’ Filip Thoen, Leonard Drucker, and Vivek Prasad highlight how the complexities and interdependencies of multi-die systems create new challenges for software bring-up, a... » read more

Chip Industry Talent Shortage Drives Academic Partnerships
By Liz Allan - 16 Oct, 2023 - Comments: 0

Universities around the world are forming partnerships with semiconductor companies and governments to help fill open and future positions, to keep curricula current and relevant, and to update and expand skills for working engineers. Talent shortages repeatedly have been cited as the number one challenge for the chip industry. Behind those concerns are several key drivers, and many more dom... » read more

Chip Industry Week In Review

By Liz Allan, Jesse Allen, and Karen Heyman. Canon uncorked a nanoimprint lithography system, which the company said will be useful down to about the 5nm node. Unlike traditional lithography equipment, which projects a pattern onto a resist, nanoimprint directly transfers images onto substrates using a master stamp patterned by an e-beam system. The technology has a number of limitations and... » read more

Partitioning Processors For AI Workloads
By Ann Mutschler - 12 Oct, 2023 - Comments: 0

Partitioning in complex chips is beginning to resemble a high-stakes guessing game, where choices need to extrapolate from what is known today to what is expected by the time a chip finally ships. Partitioning of workloads used to be a straightforward task, although not necessarily a simple one. It depended on how a device was expected to be used, the various compute, storage and data paths ... » read more

CXL: The Future Of Memory Interconnect?
By Karen Heyman - 12 Oct, 2023 - Comments: 1

Momentum for sharing memory resources between processor cores is growing inside of data centers, where the explosion in data is driving the need to be able to scale memory up and down in a way that roughly mirrors how processors are used today. A year after the CXL Consortium and JEDEC signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to formalize collaboration between the two organizations, suppor... » read more

Understand The Physics Of Re-Entry Vehicles Using Numerical Modeling And Simulation
By Veena Parthan - 12 Oct, 2023 - Comments: 0

In the early years of space exploration, scientists and engineers dreamed of sending vehicles to Mars that could land on the planet's surface and explore its terrain. However, one of their biggest challenges was safely reentering the Martian atmosphere. Many early attempts at Mars missions failed because the vehicles either burned up during re-entry or crashed onto the surface. However, as tech... » read more
