Machine Learning In The Fab
By Ed Sperling - 17 Aug, 2017 - Comments: 0

Machine learning is exploding, especially where there are massive amounts of data to contend with and lots of potential interactions. This leads to two obvious insertion points in the semiconductor field. One is on the design side, where just getting an advanced design to function is an enormous challenge. That challenge increases as the need for reliability in some market increases. It's d... » read more

How Reliable Are FinFETs?
By Ann Mutschler - 16 Aug, 2017 - Comments: 1

Stringent safety requirements in the automotive and industrial sectors are forcing chipmakers to re-examine a number of factors that can impact reliability over the lifespan of a device. Many of these concerns are not new. Electrical overstress (EOS), electrostatic discharge (ESD) and [getkc id="160" kc_name="electromigration"] (EM) are well understood, and have been addressed by EDA tools f... » read more

Using CNNs To Speed Up Systems
By Ann Mutschler - 10 Aug, 2017 - Comments: 0

Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are becoming one of the key differentiators in system performance, reversing a decades-old trend that equated speed with processor clock frequencies, the number of transistors, and the instruction set architecture. Even with today's smartphones and PCs, it's difficult for users to differentiate between processors with 6, 8 or 16 cores. But as the amount o... » read more

Addressing The Complex Challenges In Low-Power Design And Verification
By Mentor, a Siemens Business - 09 Aug, 2017 - Comments: 0

This paper provides a comprehensive analysis of various complex debug problems faced in low-power design and verification. By using relevant examples it demonstrates how these issues can be either avoided or easily solved. We will also highlight some of the common pitfalls that low-power designers can avoid, which otherwise can lead to complex low-power issues that are difficult to debug at lat... » read more

Dealing With System-Level Power
By Ann Mutschler - 17 Jul, 2017 - Comments: 1

Analyzing and managing power at the system level is becoming more difficult and more important—and slow to catch on. There are several reasons for this. First, design automation tools have lagged behind an understanding of what needs to be done. Second, modeling languages and standards are still in flux, and what exists today is considered inadequate. And third, while system-level power ha... » read more

Performance To The People
By Ed Sperling - 13 Jul, 2017 - Comments: 0

Ever since the IoT became a household term, the almost universal concept was that extremely low-power, simplistic devices would rule the edge. They would collect data, send it to the cloud, and the cloud would send back useful information. That's a great marketing concept for gateways and cloud services, but it's not scalable. Consumers don't just want to know when their heartbeat is irregul... » read more
