PCB Layout Tips For Low Side Gate Drivers With OCP
By Weidong Chu - 10 Mar, 2022 - Comments: 0

Our 1ED44173/5/6 are the new low side gate driver ICs that integrate over-current protection (OCP), FAULT status output and enable function. This high integration level is excellent for the digitally controlled Power Factor Correction (PFC) applications with boost topology and ground reference switching. In PFC applications, shunts are used to sense power switch current or DC bus current... » read more

Tools & IP Imperas Software introduced the RISC-V Verification Interface (RVVI). The open standard and methodology can be adapted to any configuration permitted within the RISC-V specifications. RVVI defines interfaces between RTL, reference model, and testbench for RISC-V design verification, with the aim of making RISC-V processor DV reusable. It supports multi-hart, superscalar, and out... » read more

Verifying Side-Channel Security Pre-Silicon
By Bryon Moyer - 03 Mar, 2022 - Comments: 1

As security grows in importance, side-channel attacks pose a unique challenge because they rely on physical phenomena that aren’t always modeled for the design verification process. While everything can be hacked, the goal is to make it so difficult that an attacker concludes it isn't worth the effort. For side-channel attacks, the pre-silicon design is the best place to address any known ... » read more

Machine Learning Showing Up As Silicon IP
By Bryon Moyer - 03 Mar, 2022 - Comments: 0

New machine-learning (ML) architectures continue to appear. Up to now, each new offering has been implemented in a chip for sale, to be placed alongside host processors, memory, and other chips on an accelerator board. But over time, more of this technology could be sold as IP that can be integrated into a system-on-chip (SoC). That trend is evident at recent conferences, where an increasing... » read more

Higher Creepage And Clearance Make For More Reliable Systems
By Jaeeul Yeon - 03 Mar, 2022 - Comments: 1

Electrical and electronic applications must be designed to ensure human safety, as well as systems reliability from high-voltage conditions. Thus, the power semiconductors used must also fulfill these safety and distance standards set by organizations such as Underwriter Laboratories (UL) or the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). Even though the TO247 package has been widely us... » read more

Why Banks Should Be More Worried About Security
