CXL Signals A New Era Of Data Center Architecture
By Tim Messegee - 08 Jul, 2021 - Comments: 0

An exponential rise in data volume and traffic across the global internet infrastructure is motivating exploration of new architectures for the data center. Disaggregation and composability would move us beyond the classic architecture of the server as the unit of computing. By separating the functional components of compute, memory, storage and networking into pools, composed on-demand to matc... » read more

MIPI Drives Performance For Next-Generation Displays
By Rambus - 07 Jul, 2021 - Comments: 0

MIPI Alliance technology has helped enable the dramatic growth of the mobile phone market. The function and capabilities of MIPI interface solutions have grown dramatically as well. MIPI DSI-2 has become the leading display interface across a growing range of products including smartphones, AR/VR, IoT appliances, and ADAS/autonomous vehicles. As the application space has expanded, so too have t... » read more

IoT Security: Confusing And Fragmented
By Bryon Moyer - 01 Jul, 2021 - Comments: 0

Security regulations for Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices are evolving around the world, but there is no consistent set of requirements that can be applied globally — and there may never be. What exists today is a patchwork of certification labs and logos. That makes it difficult for IoT-device designers to know where to get their security blessed. Unlike in data centers, where there is a ... » read more

CXL Memory Interconnect Initiative: Enabling A New Era of Data Center Architecture
By Rambus - 30 Jun, 2021 - Comments: 0

In response to an exponential growth in data, the industry is on the threshold of a groundbreaking architectural shift that will fundamentally change the performance, efficiency and cost of data centers around the globe. Server architecture, which has remained largely unchanged for decades, is taking a revolutionary step forward to address the growing demand for data and the voracious performan... » read more

Blog Review: June 23
By Jesse Allen - 23 Jun, 2021 - Comments: 0

Synopsys' Manuel Mota shows how splitting SoCs into smaller dies for advanced packaging and using die-to-die interfaces to enable high bandwidth, low latency, and low power connectivity can benefit hyperscale data centers. Siemens EDA's Chris Spear explains the relationship between classes and objects in SystemVerilog with a handy visualization and notes the difference between SystemVerilog ... » read more

Week In Review: Design, Low Power
By Jesse Allen - 18 Jun, 2021 - Comments: 0

Rambus is making a push for Compute Express Link (CXL) with two acquisitions and the launch of its CXL Memory Interconnect Initiative. The initiative aims to define and develop semiconductor solutions for advanced data center architectures, with initial research and development focusing on solutions to support key memory expansion and pooling use cases. CXL is an open interconnect specificat... » read more

Week In Review: Auto, Security, Pervasive Computing
By Susan Rambo - 18 Jun, 2021 - Comments: 0

Automotive U.S. electric truck manufacturer Lordstown Motors has an electric truck but after a large buyer fell through, it admitted it does not have any firm orders on its trucks, according to an AP story. The CEO and CFO resigned earlier this week. The electric car company Canoo announced its US manufacturing facility will be in Oklahoma. Cadence revealed its Tensilica FloatingPoint DSP (... » read more

Improving Power & Performance Beyond Scaling
By Ed Sperling - 16 Jun, 2021 - Comments: 0

Steven Woo, Rambus fellow and distinguished inventor, discusses architectural changes inside of servers and data centers to allow pooling of resources such as memory. That has a big impact on power efficiency and overall performance, but it also allows data centers to customize their architectures and prioritized resources with much more granularity than they can do today. » read more

Shifting Toward Data-Driven Chip Architectures
By Ed Sperling and Ann Mutschler - 16 Jun, 2021 - Comments: 0

An explosion in data is forcing chipmakers to rethink where to process data, which are the best types of processors and memories for different types of data, and how to structure, partition and prioritize the movement of raw and processed data. New chips from systems companies such as Google, Facebook, Alibaba, and IBM all incorporate this approach. So do those developed by vendors like Appl... » read more

Accelerating AI/ML Inferencing With GDDR6 DRAM
By Frank Ferro - 10 Jun, 2021 - Comments: 0

The origins of graphics double data rate (GDDR) memory can be traced to the rise of 3D gaming on PCs and consoles. The first graphics processing units (GPU) packed single data rate (SDR) and double data rate (DDR) DRAM – the same solution used for CPU main memory. As gaming evolved, the demand for higher frame rates at ever higher resolutions drove the need for a graphics-workload specific me... » read more
