Gearing Up For Level 4 Vehicles
By John Koon - 05 Oct, 2023 - Comments: 0

More autonomous features are being added into high-end vehicles, but getting to full autonomy will likely take years more effort, a slew of new technologies — some of which are not in use today, and some of which involve infrastructure outside the vehicle — along with sufficient volume to bring the cost of these combined capabilities down to an affordable price point. In the meantime, ma... » read more

Software Stack For Edge AI Performance
By Suhas Mitra - 05 Oct, 2023 - Comments: 0

Developing an agile software stack is important for successful AI deployment on the edge. We regularly encounter new machine learning models created from multiple AI frameworks that leverage the latest primitives and state-of-the-art ML model topologies. This Cambrian explosion has resulted from a fertile open-source community that has embraced AI and is now fueling a wide proliferation of ML m... » read more

Cadence's Felipe Goncalves checks out the Integrity and Data Encryption (IDE) feature in PCIe 6.0, a new layer inserted between the transection layer and data link layer with the goal of protecting against threats from physical attacks on the link. Siemens' Robin Bornoff, Daniel Berger, and Kai Liu explore the potential for large language models (LLMs) make the use of CAE tools simpler, more... » read more

Everyone’s A System Designer With Heterogeneous Integration
By Ann Mutschler - 02 Oct, 2023 - Comments: 0

The move away from monolithic SoCs to heterogeneous chips and chiplets in a package is accelerating, setting in motion a broad shift in methodologies, collaborations, and design goals that are felt by engineers at every step of the flow, from design through manufacturing. Nearly every engineer is now working or touching some technology, process, or methodology that is new. And they are inter... » read more

Chip Industry Week In Review
By The SE Staff - 29 Sep, 2023 - Comments: 0

By Susan Rambo, Liz Allan, and Gregory Haley. TSMC rolled out the second version of its 3Dblox, which creates an infrastructure for stacking chiplets and other necessary components in a package, along with a standardized way of achieving that. Two novel features are chiplet mirroring for design reuse, and what is basically sandbox for power and thermal analysis of different design elements. ... » read more

Industry Pressure Grows For Simulating Systems Of Systems
By Brian Bailey - 28 Sep, 2023 - Comments: 0

Most complex systems are designed in a top-down manner, but as the amount of electronic content in those systems increases, so does the pressure on the chip industry to provide high-level models and simulation capabilities. Those models either do not exist today, or they exist in isolation. No matter how capable a model or simulator, there never will be one that can do it all. In some cases,... » read more

AI Drives Need For Optical Interconnects In Data Centers
By Karen Heyman - 28 Sep, 2023 - Comments: 0

An explosion of data, driven by more sensors everywhere and the inclusion of AI/ML in just about everything, is ratcheting up the pressure on data centers to leverage optical interconnects to speed up data throughput and reduce latency. Optical communication has been in use for several decades, starting with long-haul communications, and evolving from there to connect external storage to ser... » read more
