Week In Review: Auto, Security, Pervasive Computing
By SE Staff - 08 Oct, 2021 - Comments: 0

Automotive Qualcomm and SSW Partners, an investment partnership, now have a definitive agreement to acquire advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) company Veoneer for $37.00 per share in an all-cash transaction that equals $4.5 billion in equity value. A few months ago, Qualcomm made the proposal to Veoneer after the company already had an agreement in place with Magma, a 60-year-old automo... » read more

Competing Auto Sensor Fusion Approaches
By Bryon Moyer - 07 Oct, 2021 - Comments: 0

As today’s internal-combustion engines are replaced by electric/electronic vehicles, mechanical-system sensors will be supplanted by numerous electronic sensors both for efficient operation and for achieving various levels of autonomy. Some of these new sensors will operate alone, but many prominent ones will need their outputs combined — or “fused” — with the outputs of other sensor... » read more

Navigating The Seas Of FIPS 140-2 CMVP With Certified Root Of Trust And TRNG IP
By Bart Stevens - 07 Oct, 2021 - Comments: 0

No captain worth his salt would set sail without an experienced navigator at his side. Likewise, when navigating the FIPS 140-2 CMVP process, it’s extremely valuable to have a partner that has already successfully made the journey. More specifically, working with a partner that offers CMVP-certified IP can streamline the process and increase the success of achieving CMVP certification of chip... » read more

HBM3 Memory: Break Through To Greater Bandwidth
By Rambus - 06 Oct, 2021 - Comments: 0

AI/ML’s demands for greater bandwidth are insatiable driving rapid improvements in every aspect of computing hardware and software. HBM memory is the ideal solution for the high bandwidth requirements of AI/ML training, but it entails additional design considerations given its 2.5D architecture. Now we’re on the verge of a new generation of HBM that will raise memory and capacity to new hei... » read more

Overview Of Medical Chip Challenges
By SE Staff - 30 Sep, 2021 - Comments: 0

Medical devices are adopting, and increasingly adapting, a variety of semiconductor technologies to provide new functions and capabilities in smaller form factors. In doing so, they are leveraging increasing processing capabilities, lower power, and new types of sensors to propel health care forward. Many different chip types have been used in medical devices for years, many of them develope... » read more

EDA Vendors Widen Use Of AI
By Ed Sperling - 29 Sep, 2021 - Comments: 0

EDA vendors are widening the use of AI and machine learning to incorporate multiple tools, providing continuity and access to consistent data at multiple points in the semiconductor design flow. While gaps remain, early results from a number of EDA tools providers point to significant improvements in performance, power, and time to market. AI/ML has been deployed for some time in EDA. Still,... » read more

Week In Review: Design, Low Power
By Jesse Allen - 24 Sep, 2021 - Comments: 0

U.S. government officials met with semiconductor industry companies and automakers to request supply chain information it hopes could address the current semiconductor shortage, Reuters reports. Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo hopes the information will enable them and industry to "get more granular into the bottlenecks and then ultimately predict challenges before they happen," but also wa... » read more

Optimization Driving Changes In Microarchitectures
By Ann Mutschler - 23 Sep, 2021 - Comments: 0

The semiconductor ecosystem is at a turning point for how to best architect the CPU based on the explosion of data, the increased usage of AI, and the need for differentiation and customization in leading-edge applications. In the past, much of this would have been accomplished by moving to the next process node. But with the benefits from scaling diminishing at each new node, the focus is s... » read more

Data Tsunami Pushes Boundaries Of IC Interconnects
By Ann Mutschler - 22 Sep, 2021 - Comments: 0

Rapid increases in machine-generated data are fueling demand for higher-performance multi-core computing, forcing design teams to rethink the movement of data on-chip, off-chip, and between chips in a package. In the past, this was largely handled by the on-chip interconnects, which often were a secondary consideration in the design. But with the rising volumes of data in markets ranging fro... » read more
