Backside Power Delivery Gears Up For 2nm Devices
By Laura Peters - 26 Feb, 2024 - Comments: 1

The top three foundries plan to implement backside power delivery as soon as the 2nm node, setting the stage for faster and more efficient switching in chips, reduced routing congestion, and lower noise across multiple metal layers. The benefits of using this approach are significant. By delivering power using slightly fatter, less resistive lines on the backside, rather than inefficient fro... » read more

Chip Industry Week In Review
By The SE Staff - 23 Feb, 2024 - Comments: 0

By Jesse Allen, Gregory Haley, and Liz Allan Intel officially launched Intel Foundry this week, claiming it's the "world's first systems foundry for the AI era." The foundry also showed off a more detailed technology roadmap down to expanded 14A process technology. Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger noted the foundry will be separate from the chipmaker, utilize third-party chiplets and IP, and leverage... » read more

Intel, And Others, Inside
By Ed Sperling - 22 Feb, 2024 - Comments: 2

Intel this week made a strong case for how it will regain global process technology leadership, unfurling an aggressive technology and business roadmap that includes everything from several more process node shrinks that ultimately could scale into the single-digit angstrom range to a broad shift in how it approaches the market. Both will be essential for processing the huge amount of data for ... » read more

UCIe Goes Back To The Drawing Board
By Gregory Haley - 22 Feb, 2024 - Comments: 0

The integration of multiple dies within a single package increasingly is viewed as the next evolution for extending Moore’s Law, but it also presents myriad challenges — particularly in achieving a universally accepted standard integrating plug-and-play chiplets from different vendors. “In some respects, people are already doing this,” says Debendra Das Sharma, Intel senior fellow an... » read more

Why Chiplets Are So Critical In Automotive
By John Koon - 20 Feb, 2024 - Comments: 1

Chiplets are gaining renewed attention in the automotive market, where increasing electrification and intense competition are forcing companies to accelerate their design and production schedules. Electrification has lit a fire under some of the biggest and best-known carmakers, which are struggling to remain competitive in the face of very short market windows and constantly changing requir... » read more

Re-architecting Hardware For Energy
By Brian Bailey - 15 Feb, 2024 - Comments: 0

A lot of effort has gone into the power optimization of a system based on the RTL created, but that represents a small fraction of the possible power and energy that could be saved. The industry's desire to move to denser systems is being constrained by heat, so there is an increasing focus on re-architecting systems to reduce the energy consumed per useful function performed. Making signifi... » read more

Chip Ecosystem Apprenticeships Help Close The Talent Gap
By Liz Allan - 12 Feb, 2024 - Comments: 1

Competency-based apprenticeship programs are gaining wider acceptance across the chip industry as companies and governments look for new ways to address talent shortages, and as workers look for new skills that can span multiple industry sectors and industries. Funded in part by the CHIPS Act in the U.S. the European Chips Act, and various other nation-specific and regional programs, apprent... » read more

LLM Inference on GPUs (Intel)
By Technical Paper Link - 02 Feb, 2024 - Comments: 0

A technical paper titled “Efficient LLM inference solution on Intel GPU” was published by researchers at Intel Corporation. Abstract: "Transformer based Large Language Models (LLMs) have been widely used in many fields, and the efficiency of LLM inference becomes hot topic in real applications. However, LLMs are usually complicatedly designed in model structure with massive operations and... » read more
