Semiconductor Engineering sat down to discuss the value of feature shrinks and what comes next with Steve Eplett, design technology and automation manager at Open-Silicon; Patrick Soheili, vice president and general manager of IP Solutions at eSilicon; Brandon Wang, engineering group director at Cadence; John Ferguson, product manager for DRC applications at Mentor Graphics; and Kevin Kranen, d... » read more

Blog Review: Aug. 20
By Ed Sperling - 20 Aug, 2014 - Comments: 0

Ansys’ Bill Vandermark highlights the top five engineering articles of the week. Check out the “Sprouting Baby Monitor.” This may be a sign of what the IoT is really good for. You can also use your cat (or dog or even your kids) to hack your neighbor’s Wi-Fi. Cadence’s Richard Goering says gaps may be narrowing between available tools and what’s needed for 3D-IC design. Now all w... » read more

Executive Insight: Gideon Wertheizer

SE: From your standpoint, what’s the next big thing? Wertheizer: The industry was driven in the past few years by the structure the smartphone created. It looks like this area is about to grow. What’s changing is the integration of the smartphone with other applications. The smartphone is now a hub of entertainment and productivity with many devices connecting directly or indirectly to i... » read more

Wearable, continuous disease monitoring A new wearable vapor sensor being developed at the University of Michigan could one day offer continuous disease monitoring for patients with diabetes, high blood pressure, anemia or lung disease, according to researchers there. The new sensor, which can detect airborne chemicals either exhaled or released through the skin, would likely be the first w... » read more

IP Reaches Back To Established Nodes
By Ann Mutschler - 07 Aug, 2014 - Comments: 0

Driven by the [getkc id="76" kc_name="IoT"] and wearable market opportunity, [getkc id="81" kc_name="SoC"] developers are shifting backward to established nodes, and what is learned at the leading-edge nodes is being leveraged in reverse as IP is ported backward to improve functionality. [getkc id="43" kc_name="IP"] certainly can be improved to work faster at older geometries, stressed Krish... » read more

Infrastructure, Then Integration
By Ed Sperling - 04 Aug, 2014 - Comments: 0

In any business and in any business segment, you have to start somewhere and then figure out what the likely end points will be and how to get there. It’s no different with the Internet of Things, except that the integration of different markets or applications is rather fuzzy at the moment. For example, it’s pretty easy to predict the possibilities for a car. It will likely move from co... » read more

Caught In Between
By Frank Ferro - 04 Aug, 2014 - Comments: 0

I recently spent four busy days at a tradeshow where I was fortunate enough to get a couple of nice gifts – and perhaps by coincidence, these items are a good representation of where we are in the high-tech market today. Let me explain. As I write this blog, I’m wearing my new fitness-tracking device that I received as part of the ARM IP Connected Community challenge at the Design Automatio... » read more

Addressing Test Cost Challenges In LPCT Designs
By Cadence - 04 Aug, 2014 - Comments: 0

As companies strive to achieve higher quality and reliability for their products, and as package sizes and the number of available pins continue to shrink, there is also a persistent need to keep test costs down. Low Pin Count Test (LPCT) is one solution that Design for Test (DFT) designers turn to, and in many cases, might be the only one available to address these conflicting requirements. ... » read more

Internet Of Things Design Considerations For Embedded Connected Devices
By Mentor, a Siemens Business - 04 Aug, 2014 - Comments: 0

Embedded connectivity has been around since the early days of M2M. But what is new are the many complexities and emerging standards embedded system developers need to know if they are to design the latest IoT device. This paper delves into many of the key considerations developers need to know and discusses the critical areas of IoT security and connectivity along with the importance of a prove... » read more

Locking Down The Chip
By Ernest Worthman - 09 Jul, 2014 - Comments: 0

The push toward securing chips is complicated by the amount of third-party IP that is being used inside of today’s complex SoCs. This has cast new light on the potential for on-chip networks to also function in securing signals that flow through those networks. This becomes particularly important with the Internet of Things, because the source of those signals isn’t always obvious to the... » read more
