Chasing Reliability In Automotive Electronics
By Susan Rambo And Ed Sperling - 15 Jan, 2019 - Comments: 0

Assuring reliability in automotive electronics has set off a scramble across the semiconductor supply chain and unearthed a list of issues for which there is insufficient data, a lack of well-defined standards, and inconsistent levels of expertise. Reliable functional safety that spans 18 to 20 years of service in harsh environments, or under constant use with autonomous taxis or trucks, is ... » read more

Fundamentals of Semiconductor ISO 26262 Certification: People, Process and Product
By Arteris - 09 Jan, 2019 - Comments: 0

Written by Kurt Shuler, VP of Marketing at Arteris IP Developers of automotive semiconductor devices and electronic systems beware: There may be some vendors who claim their products meet the ISO 26262 safety standard requirements for integration into the production of passenger vehicles without fully understanding the nature of the challenge. These claims might be superficial if they fail... » read more

Top Tech Talks Of 2018
By Linda Christensen - 31 Dec, 2018 - Comments: 0

2018 shaped up to be a year of transition and inflection, sometimes in the same design. There were new opportunities in automotive, continued difficulties in scaling, and an explosion in AI and machine learning everywhere. Traffic numbers on stories give a snapshot of the most current trends, but with videos those trends are even more apparent because of the time invested in watching those v... » read more

The Rise and Fall of Synthesis Bugs in Safety-Critical FPGAs
By OneSpin Solutions - 19 Dec, 2018 - Comments: 0

For standards IEC 61508 / ISO 26262 / EN 50128 / DO-254. FPGAs are the dominant hardware platform in low-volume, safety-critical applications, including aerospace, and nuclear power plants. Modern FPGAs allow for the implementation of high performance designs with integrated safety mechanisms. This is driving adoption in additional industries, including automotive. Functional safety standard... » read more

Bare Metal Programming
By Ann Mutschler - 29 Nov, 2018 - Comments: 0

As the need for safety and security grows across application areas such as automotive, industrial, and in the cloud, the semiconductor industry is searching for the best ways to protect these systems. The big question is whether it is better to build security and safety into hardware, into software, or both. The answer isn't entirely clear yet, but one of the options under consideration is s... » read more

Straight Talk On Design Tools And ISO 26262
By Mentor, a Siemens Business - 07 Nov, 2018 - Comments: 0

Understanding evolving functional safety goals is difficult. The good news is there are some first principles that apply for safety-minded engineers, including when it comes to evaluating software design tools used to create everything from the systems to the IC components, software and networks and that are so critical in automotive design today. The best advice is a twist on the “think glob... » read more

Connected Cars: From Chip To City
By Ann Mutschler - 01 Nov, 2018 - Comments: 0

As the automotive industry moves closer to autonomous vehicles, ecosystem players are focusing on the infrastructure pieces needed to make autonomous technology a reality for the first adopters, which are most likely commercial fleets. Vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I or v2i) is a communications model that allows vehicles to share information with the components that support a country's hi... » read more

ADAS Further Extends 7nm Challenges
By Mondeep Thiara - 11 Oct, 2018 - Comments: 0

As we discussed previously on the LPHP blog, 7nm nodes hold great promise for reducing power, improving performance and increasing density for next-generation chips, but also present a set of engineering challenges. When you factor in the standards set for autonomous vehicles (AV) and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) system-on-chips or SoCs, those challenges can more than double. Autom... » read more

Autonomous Vehicles: IC Design Flow Walk Through
By Andrew Macleod - 04 Oct, 2018 - Comments: 0

Automotive applications, particularly those related to AI and computer vision, are a significant driver of the current semiconductor boom. Established companies are mostly thriving, it’s true, but perhaps more interesting are all the new faces in the game. As usual, Mentor CEO Wally Rhines is one of the great sense-makers of the all this activity. Wally has been making the rounds at variou... » read more

Adding Safety Into Automotive Design
By Ann Mutschler - 04 Oct, 2018 - Comments: 0

The ISO 26262 spec is a household term for anyone even remotely involved with the automotive industry today. Increasingly, though, it is being used interchangeably with safety-readiness across the entire supply chain. ISO 26262 compliance is a prerequisite for IP and chips used in an increasing number of automotive applications. It applies to systems, software, and to individual products. An... » read more
