Week In Review: Auto, Security, Pervasive Computing
By Liz Allan - 25 Aug, 2023 - Comments: 0

The AI chip market is booming. Gartner expects revenue for the year will hit $53.4 billion, up 20.9% from 2022. The firm predicts that number will grow to $119 billion by 2027.  In the consumer electronics market, the value of AI-enabled application processors will amount to $1.2 billion in 2023, up from $558 million in 2022. Germany will spend nearly €1 billion (~US$1.7B) over the next t... » read more

Week In Review: Auto, Security, Pervasive Computing

Joby Aviation and Alef Automotive each received a Special Airworthiness Certificate from the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for an electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft. Joby will now begin flight testing the prototype, and the aircraft will move to Edwards Air Force Base in 2024 as part of a contract with the U.S. Air Force. Alef’s model is the first U.S. govern... » read more

Automotive Ambarella will use Samsung's 5nm process technology for its new CV3-AD685 automotive AI central domain controller, bringing "new levels of AI acceleration, system integration and power efficiency to ADAS and L2+ through L4 autonomous vehicles.” Renesas introduced four technologies for automotive communication gateway SoCs: (1) an architecture that dynamically changes... » read more

Automating The Detection of Hardware Common Weakness Enumerations In Early Design
By Technical Paper Link - 12 Oct, 2022 - Comments: 0

A new technical paper titled "Don't CWEAT It: Toward CWE Analysis Techniques in Early Stages of Hardware Design" was published by researchers at NYU, Intel, Duke and University of Calgary. "To help prevent hardware security vulnerabilities from propagating to later design stages where fixes are costly, it is crucial to identify security concerns as early as possible, such as in RTL designs. ... » read more

Design For Security Now Essential For Chips, Systems
By Ann Mutschler - 01 Sep, 2022 - Comments: 0

It's nearly impossible to create a completely secure chip or system, but much can be done to raise the level of confidence about that security. In the past, security was something of an afterthought, disconnected from the architecture and added late in the design cycle. But as chips are used increasingly in safety- and mission-critical systems, and as the value of data continues to rise, the... » read more

Chip Backdoors: Assessing the Threat
By Jeff Goldman - 04 Aug, 2022 - Comments: 0

In 2018, Bloomberg Businessweek made an explosive claim: Chinese spies had implanted backdoors in motherboards used by some high-profile customers, including the U.S. Department of Defense. All of those customers issued strongly worded denials. Most reports of hardware backdoors have ended up in exchanges like these. There are allegations and counter-allegations about specifics. But as hardw... » read more

Is Standardization Required For Security?
By Ann Mutschler - 04 Aug, 2022 - Comments: 1

Semiconductor Engineering sat down to discuss chip and system security with Mike Borza, fellow and scientist on the security IP team at Synopsys; Lee Harrison, automotive IC test solutions manager at Siemens Digital Industries Software; Jason Oberg, founder and CTO of Cycuity (formerly Tortuga Logic); Nicole Fern, senior security analyst at Riscure; Norman Chang, fellow and CTO of the electroni... » read more

Protecting ICs Against Specific Threats
By Ed Sperling - 18 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

Identifying potential vulnerabilities and attack vectors is a first step in addressing them. Anders Nordstrom, security application engineer at Tortuga Logic, talks with Semiconductor Engineering about the growing risk of remote hardware attacks, what to do when a chip is hacked, and where to find the most common weaknesses for chips. » read more

Building Security Into ICs From The Ground Up
By John Koon - 05 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

Cyberattacks are becoming more frequent and more sophisticated, but they also are starting to compromise platforms that until recently were considered unbreakable. Consider blockchains, for example, which were developed as secure, distributed ledger platforms. All of them must be updated with the same data for a transaction to proceed. But earlier this year a blockchain bridge platform calle... » read more
