Standardizing Defect Coverage In Analog/Mixed Signal Test


A newly drafted IEEE standard will bring more consistency to defect metrics in analog/mixed (AMS) designs, a long-overdue step that has become too difficult to ignore in the costly heterogeneous assemblies being deployed inside of data centers and mobile devices. Standardizing analog is no simple feat due to the legacy approach to AMS design, and this is not the first attempt at improving te... » read more

Balancing Programmability And Performance In Cars


The rate of change in the automotive industry is accelerating with the shift toward software-defined vehicles and ongoing advancements in algorithms and chip architectures. The challenge now is to figure out the best way to prevent rapid obsolescence, improve safety, and keep the cost of these changes to a minimum. Today, updatable automotive hardware is typically achieved through FPGAs, but... » read more

Photonics Could Reduce The Cost Of Lidar


Using light to move data over shorter distances is becoming more common, both because there is much more data to move around and because photons are faster and cooler than electrons. Using optical fiber for mission-critical communication is already well established. It has been the preferred PHY for long-haul communications for decades because it doesn’t suffer from the attenuation losses ... » read more

Shaping The Future Of Automotive Safety With V2X


In recent years, the automotive industry has witnessed a technological evolution that promises to redefine road safety and driving experiences. At the heart of this advancement is V2X technology, which stands for "vehicle-to-everything." This innovation allows vehicles to communicate with each other and their surroundings, enhancing road safety and efficiency. Understanding these cutting-edge d... » read more

Security Improving For Low-Cost Hardware


Security has been a priority in software for decades, but only recently has it begun catching up in chips — particularly those in inexpensive devices. The disconnect is that while these devices are low-cost, they often are connected to the same networks as more sophisticated devices and repositories for valuable data. It's not unusual for the entry point in ransomware or distributed denial... » read more

Bird’s Eye View on Tensilica Vision DSPs


The increasing use of cameras in automotive advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) has resulted in a greater demand for the capability and performance of vision applications. This demand requires sophisticated vision processing algorithms and powerful digital signal processors (DSPs) to run them. Because of the limited power and cost budgets of these embedded systems, it is important t... » read more

Blog Review: Sept. 4


Synopsys' Jyotika Athavale and Randy Fish sit down with Google's Rama Govindaraju and Microsoft's Robert S. Chappell to discuss silent data corruption and why a solution will require chip designers and manufacturers, software and hardware engineers, vendors, and anyone involved in computer data to collaborate and take the issue seriously. Siemens' Karen Chow and Joel Mercier explain the rela... » read more

GDDR7: The Ideal Memory Solution In AI Inference


The generative AI market is experiencing rapid growth, driven by the increasing parameter size of Large Language Models (LLMs). This growth is pushing the boundaries of performance requirements for training hardware within data centers. For an in-depth look at this, consider the insights provided in "HBM3E: All About Bandwidth". Once trained, these models are deployed across a diverse range of... » read more

Blog Review: Aug. 28


Synopsys' Jon Ames checks out how the Ultra Ethernet Consortium aims to revolutionize networking by optimizing Ethernet for the rapidly evolving AI and HPC workloads by addressing critical issues like tail latency that are encountered by machine learning algorithms in large compute clusters. Cadence's Kos Gitchev introduces the DDR5 Multiplexed Rank DIMM (MRDIMM), a memory module technology ... » read more
