Week In Review: Auto, Security, Pervasive Computing
By Susan Rambo - 27 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

Automotive, mobility Cadence is now an official technology partner of the McLaren Formula 1 Team. The team will use Cadence’s Fidelity CFD Software to look at the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) of the airflow around the race cars and predict how a car design will affect the airflow. Infineon uncorked its XENSIV 60 GHz automotive radar sensor for in-cabin monitoring systems. One use ca... » read more

Week In Review: Auto, Security, Pervasive Computing
By Susan Rambo - 13 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

Automotive, mobility Fraunhofer IIS has opened a five-kilometer (3.11-mile) 5G test bed for automotive 5G applications near the city of Rosenheim in Bavaria, Germany. A closed 5G network with multiple base stations covers the test track, where connected cars can be tested under real conditions. “The automotive test bed is designed specially for developers and users that want to test new conn... » read more

Chiplets: Current Status
By Andy Heinig - 12 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

Recent weeks have seen a number of interesting developments in the area of chiplets. An increasing number of products based on chiplets have been brought to market, especially in the processors segment. For example, Apple and AMD now have processors with chiplets on the market and under production in high volumes. On one hand, this means that sufficient production capacity has now been built up... » read more

State-Space Model Of An Electro-Mechanical-Acoustic Contactless Energy Transfer System Based On Multiphysics Networks
By Fraunhofer IIS/EAS - 11 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

Contactless energy transfer systems are mainly divided into acoustic, inductive, capacitive and optical, in which main applications are related to biomedical, wireless chargers and sensors in metal enclosures. When solids are used as transfer media, ultrasound transducers based on piezoelectricity can be used for through-wall power transfer, which can be named as electro-mechanical-acoustic con... » read more

The Challenges Of Incremental Verification
By Brian Bailey - 28 Apr, 2022 - Comments: 1

Verification consumes more time and resources than design, and yet little headway is being made to optimize it. The reasons are complex, and there are more questions than there are answers. For example, what is the minimum verification required to gain confidence in a design change? How can you minimize the cost of finding out that the change was bad, or that it had unintended consequences? ... » read more

More Options, Less Dark Silicon
By Ed Sperling - 20 Apr, 2022 - Comments: 0

Chipmakers are beginning to re-examine how much dark silicon should be used in a heterogenous system, where it works best, and what alternatives are available — a direct result of a slowdown in Moore's Law scaling and the increasing disaggregation of SoCs. The concept of dark silicon has been around for a couple decades, but it really began taking off with the introduction of the Internet ... » read more

How Do I Come To Trust An Electronic Component?
By Roland Jancke - 14 Apr, 2022 - Comments: 0

Can I trust all of the electronic systems in my vehicle, for example if I’m driving my car at a high speed on the highway or in city traffic at a confusing intersection? Will all of the vehicle’s sensors work as they should and correctly recognize all of the possible dangers around me? In modern vehicles and complex industrial plants today, a number of sensors and many electronic compone... » read more

Always-On, Ultra-Low-Power Design Gains Traction
By Ann Mutschler - 14 Apr, 2022 - Comments: 0

A surge of electronic devices powered by batteries, combined with ever-increasing demand for more features, intelligence, and performance, is putting a premium on chip designs that require much lower power. This is especially true for always-on circuits, which are being added into AR/VR, automotive applications with over-the-air updates, security cameras, drones, and robotics. Also known as ... » read more

Battery Management Getting Competitive For EVs
By Ed Sperling - 07 Apr, 2022 - Comments: 0

The success or failure of future electric vehicles will depend on where and how those cars are used, as well as significant advances in battery materials, energy density, and some very complex battery management systems. Battery power needs to be balanced, stored for extended times, and delivered to wherever it is needed most in real time. This is a huge challenge, and nearly everything in a... » read more

Incremental Design Breakdown
By Brian Bailey - 24 Mar, 2022 - Comments: 0

For the past two decades, most designs have been incremental in nature. They heavily leveraged IP used in previous designs, and that IP often was developed by third parties. But there are growing problems with that methodology, especially at advanced nodes where back-end issues and the impact of 'shift left' are reducing the savings from reuse. The value of IP reuse has been well established... » read more
