Blog Review: Sept. 21
By Jesse Allen - 21 Sep, 2022 - Comments: 0

Arm's Neil Burgess and Sangwon Ha explain why they've joined Intel and Nvidia in proposing a new 8-bit floating point specification to enable neural network models developed on one platform to be run on other platforms without encountering the overhead of having to convert the vast amounts of model data between formats while reducing task loss to a minimum. Synopsys' Manuel Mota examines ver... » read more

Blog Review: Sept. 14

Synopsys' Godwin Maben, Piyush Sancheti, and Hany Elhak examine some of the top chip design considerations for medical devices and why they require careful analysis of power to reduce the number surgeries to replace batteries, reliability for devices that can be expected to last for ten years or more, and security to protect private medical data and prevent breaches. Siemens' Chris Spear exp... » read more

Video Compression And Forward Error Correction On Display Interfaces
By Emma-Jane Crozier - 13 Sep, 2022 - Comments: 0

To wrap up our recent series of articles on VESA video compression codecs, this month we will look at the use of video compression on digital display interfaces, using the DisplayPort 1.4 standard as an example. DisplayPort (DP) 1.4 was released in 2016, and this was the first display interface standard for external displays to include support for VESA Display Stream Compression (DSC), a vis... » read more

Designing For Thermal
By Karen Heyman - 13 Sep, 2022 - Comments: 0

Heat has emerged as a major concern for semiconductors in every form factor, from digital watches to data centers, and it is becoming more of a problem at advanced nodes and in advanced packages where that heat is especially difficult to dissipate. Temperatures at the base of finFETs and GAA FETs can differ from those at the top of the transistor structures. They also can vary depending on h... » read more

Challenges Mount In New Autos
By John Koon - 06 Sep, 2022 - Comments: 0

Electronics are becoming the primary differentiator for carmakers, adding an array of options that can alter everything from how a vehicle's occupants interact with their surroundings to how the vehicle drives. But the infrastructure needed to support these features also raises a slew of technology and business questions for which there are no simple answers today. For example, how will new ... » read more

Securing The Semiconductor Supply Chain With Secure Provisioning
By Joseph Gow - 01 Sep, 2022 - Comments: 0

The level of awareness of supply chain risks is rising and threats are being seen on many fronts. The Semiconductor Industry Association has reported instances of counterfeit parts being detected in critical systems, such as medical devices, transportation, and infrastructure. The scope, scale, and urgency of the problem are getting the attention of industry and government alike. The semicon... » read more

Rambus RT-640 Road To ISO 26262 Certification
By Rambus - 31 Aug, 2022 - Comments: 0

Modern vehicles incorporate an increasing number of complex integrated circuits. Failures in automotive systems can lead to damage to property, injury or loss of life. Ensuring the reliability of electronic systems is crucial, and the ISO26262 standard documents the requirements for determining automotive functional safety. This white paper details the process for how Rambus achieved the ISO262... » read more

L5 Adoption Hinges on 5G/6G
By Marie C. Baca - 31 Aug, 2022 - Comments: 1

Truly self-driving cars don’t yet exist, and research shows many consumers are wary of them anyway. What will it take to make fully autonomous cars possible? And how can automakers convince consumers to adopt such vehicles? Experts say the answer to both questions could lie in wireless communication networks. That’s because such networks offer a workaround to a major obstacle in autonomo... » read more

New Uses For AI In Chips
By John Koon and Ed Sperling - 11 Aug, 2022 - Comments: 1

Artificial intelligence is being deployed across a number of new applications, from improving performance and reducing power in a wide range of end devices to spotting irregularities in data movement for security reasons. While most people are familiar with using machine learning and deep learning to distinguish between cats and dogs, emerging applications show how this capability can be use... » read more

Driving The Future Of Automotive Displays With Video Compression
By Emma-Jane Crozier - 11 Aug, 2022 - Comments: 0

Mobile devices have heavily influenced the demand for displays in all areas of our lives over the last decade, and one area where there has been a particularly rapid transformation is in cars. This article will look at some of display trends in cars and investigate how VESA (Video Electronics Standards Association) video compression codecs can be leveraged by automotive designers to meet these ... » read more
