ISO 26262’s Importance Widens Beyond Automotive
By Adam Kovac - 09 Jan, 2025 - Comments: 0

The ISO 26262 standard, which has become a mainstay since the trend toward vehicle electrification really took root a decade ago, is starting to gain traction in markets outside of automotive chip and system design. At the center of this expansion is a focus on safety under a variety of conditions — extreme temperatures, unexpected vibration, or a collision that is unavoidable. This includ... » read more

Optimizing Interconnect Topologies For Automotive ADAS Applications
By Ashley Stevens - 25 Jul, 2024 - Comments: 0

Designing automotive Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) applications can be incredibly complex. State-of-the-art ADAS and autonomous driving systems use ‘sensor fusion’ to combine inputs from multiple sources, typically cameras and optionally radar and lidar units to go beyond passive and active safety to automate driving. Vision processing systems combine specialized AI accelerators... » read more

Holistic Verification and Validation of Automotive IP for Functional Safety SoCs
By Synopsys - 03 Jul, 2024 - Comments: 0

Automotive functional safety systems have strict requirements to help avoid damages to life and property in case of a failure. As technology becomes more complex, there are increasing safety-related risks from systematic failures and random hardware failures that must be considered during product development. Standards like ISO 26262 provide guidance to mitigate such safety-related risks, by de... » read more

Thermal Challenges Multiply In Automotive, Embedded Devices
By Karen Heyman - 02 Jul, 2024 - Comments: 0

Embedding chips into stacked-die assemblies is creating thermal dissipation challenges that can reduce the reliability and lifespan of these devices, a growing problem as chipmakers begin cramming chiplets into advanced packages with thinner substrates between them. In the past, nearly all of these complex designs were used in tightly controlled environments, such as a large data center, whe... » read more

The Uncertainty Of Certifying AI For Automotive
By Ann Mutschler - 06 Jun, 2024 - Comments: 1

Nearly every new vehicle sold uses AI to make some decisions, but so far there is no consistency in what is being developed, where it is being used, and whether it is compatible with other vehicles on the road. This fragmentation is partially due to the fact that AI is still a nascent technology, and cars and trucks sold today may be significantly different than those that will be sold sever... » read more
