The Week In Review: IoT
By Jeff Dorsch - 02 Jun, 2017 - Comments: 0

Analysis The Internet of Trains? That’s how Siemens sees its work in railroads, utilizing Big Data analytics and Internet of Things technology. “Sensors on an Internet of Trains system monitor everything from engine temperature, to the open or closed state of doors, to vibrations on the rails, and even image data from outside of the trains using cameras,” Bernard Marr writes in this anal... » read more

Carriers Push Datacenter-Style Virtualization
By Gale Morrison - 01 Jun, 2017 - Comments: 0

The world’s largest telco carriers are leading a broad movement to bring data center-style virtualization to the core of their telecommunications networks. In an industry known for being extremely conservative when it comes to change, this one appears to be significant. The move has set off a scramble among a number of companies for unified control and forwarding plane designs, starting fr... » read more

Verification And The IoT
By Ed Sperling - 31 May, 2017 - Comments: 0

Semiconductor Engineering sat down to discuss what impact the IoT will have on the design cycle, with Christopher Lawless, director of external customer acceleration in [getentity id="22846" e_name="Intel"]'s Software Services Group; David Lacey, design and verification technologist at Hewlett Packard Enterprise; Jim Hogan, managing partner at Vista Ventures; Frank Schirrmeister, senior group d... » read more

Blog Review: May 31
By Jesse Allen - 31 May, 2017 - Comments: 0

Mentor's Michael White predicts that 10nm will come on the scene in a big way this year with a leap to an estimated 9% foundry market share. At the recent RISC-V Workshop, Cadence's Paul McLellan considers whether fully open-source silicon is really viable. Synopsys' Robert Vamosi investigates the security risks posed by the proliferation of connected aftermarket automotive products and a... » read more

RISC-V Pros And Cons
By Ann Mutschler - 29 May, 2017 - Comments: 7

Simpler, faster, lower-power hardware with a free, open, simple instruction set architecture? While it sounds too good to be true, efforts are underway to do just that with RISC-V, the instruction-set architecture (ISA) developed by UC Berkeley engineers and now administered by a foundation. It has been known for some time that with [getkc id="74" comment="Moore's Law"] not offering the same... » read more

The Week In Review: IoT
By Jeff Dorsch - 26 May, 2017 - Comments: 0

Analysis Whither Intel’s Internet of Things efforts? “While Intel's IoT business certainly won't solve its ongoing troubles in the PC and data center markets anytime soon, staying invested in that market will ensure that the chipmaker doesn't miss another major technological shift, as it did with mobile devices about a decade ago,” Leo Sun writes in this analysis. Products Cisco Sys... » read more

Foundry Wars, Take Two
By Ed Sperling - 25 May, 2017 - Comments: 0

Samsung, GlobalFoundries, TSMC and Intel all have declared their intention to fill in nearly every node possible with multiple processes, different packaging options, and new materials. In fact, the only number that hasn't been taken so far is 9nm. It's not that one foundry's 10nm is the same as another's. Each company defines its nodes differently, and these days comparing nodes is almost m... » read more

Samsung Unveils Scaling, Packaging Roadmaps
By Ed Sperling - 24 May, 2017 - Comments: 5

Samsung Foundry unveiled an aggressive roadmap that scales down to 4nm, and which includes a fan-out wafer-level packaging technology that bridges chips in the redistribution layer, 18nm FD-SOI, and a new organizational structure that allows the unit much greater autonomy as a commercial enterprise. The moves put [getentity id="22865" e_name="Samsung Foundry"] in direct competition with [get... » read more

Whatever Happened To HLS?
By Brian Bailey - 24 May, 2017 - Comments: 1

A few years ago, [getkc id="105" comment="high-level synthesis"] (HLS) was probably the most talked about emerging technology that was to be the heart of a new [getkc id="48" kc_name="Electronic System Level"] (ESL) flow. Today, we hear much less about the progress being made in this area. Semiconductor Engineering sat down to discuss this with Bryan Bowyer, director of engineering for high-lev... » read more

The Race To 10/7nm
By Mark LaPedus - 22 May, 2017 - Comments: 4

Amid the ongoing ramp of 16/14nm processes in the market, the industry is now gearing up for the next nodes. In fact, GlobalFoundries, Intel, Samsung and TSMC are racing each other to ship 10nm and/or 7nm technologies. The current iterations of 10nm and 7nm technologies are scaled versions of today’s 16nm/14nm finFETs with traditional copper interconnects, high-k/metal-gate and low-k diele... » read more
