How Much AI Is Really Needed?
By John Koon - 05 Oct, 2023 - Comments: 0

Tensor Core GPUs have created a generative AI model gold rush. Whether it’s helping students with math homework, planning a vacation, or learning to prepare a six-course meal, generative AI is ready with answers. But that's only one aspect of AI, and not every application requires it. AI — now an all-inclusive term, referring to the process of using algorithms to learn, predict, and make... » read more

Gearing Up For Level 4 Vehicles
By John Koon - 05 Oct, 2023 - Comments: 0

More autonomous features are being added into high-end vehicles, but getting to full autonomy will likely take years more effort, a slew of new technologies — some of which are not in use today, and some of which involve infrastructure outside the vehicle — along with sufficient volume to bring the cost of these combined capabilities down to an affordable price point. In the meantime, ma... » read more

Protecting Highly Confidential Data In IoT Devices
By Masaki Hama - 05 Oct, 2023 - Comments: 0

How should we approach the protection of highly confidential security parameters and personal data? It's just like our daily routines: when we leave home, we lock the door and take care not to lose the key. Similarly, in the realm of cybersecurity, safeguarding cryptographic keys is paramount. No matter how robust your data protection system is, it's rendered ineffective if keys or passwords... » read more

Cadence's Felipe Goncalves checks out the Integrity and Data Encryption (IDE) feature in PCIe 6.0, a new layer inserted between the transection layer and data link layer with the goal of protecting against threats from physical attacks on the link. Siemens' Robin Bornoff, Daniel Berger, and Kai Liu explore the potential for large language models (LLMs) make the use of CAE tools simpler, more... » read more

Chip Industry Week In Review
By The SE Staff - 29 Sep, 2023 - Comments: 0

By Susan Rambo, Liz Allan, and Gregory Haley. TSMC rolled out the second version of its 3Dblox, which creates an infrastructure for stacking chiplets and other necessary components in a package, along with a standardized way of achieving that. Two novel features are chiplet mirroring for design reuse, and what is basically sandbox for power and thermal analysis of different design elements. ... » read more

ReRAM Seeks To Replace NOR
By Karen Heyman - 25 Sep, 2023 - Comments: 0

Resistive RAM is gaining renewed attention as demand for faster and cheaper non-volatile memory alternatives continues to grow, particularly in applications such as automotive. Embedded flash has long left designers wishing for better write speeds and lower energy consumption, but as the leading edge of that technology shrunk to 28nm, another problem arose. Manufacturing flash memory at thos... » read more

Chip Industry Week In Review

By Jesse Allen, Karen Heyman, and Liz Allan The U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) announced $238 million in awards toward establishing eight regional innovation hubs under the CHIPS and Science Act. The hubs aim to accelerate hardware prototyping and "lab-to-fab" transition of semiconductor technologies for secure edge/IoT, 5G/6G, AI hardware, quantum technology, electromagnetic warfare, and ... » read more

Blog Review: September 20
By Jesse Allen - 20 Sep, 2023 - Comments: 0

Siemens' Patrick Hope considers the unique attributes of materials used in flex and rigid-flex PCB designs and how they are constructed. Synopsys' Kenneth Larsen and Shekhar Kapoor find that the increased impact of thermal, signal integrity, and other multi-physics effects on multi-die systems calls for looking at the whole system, from technology to dies and package together. Cadence's V... » read more

Chip Industry Week In Review
By The SE Staff - 15 Sep, 2023 - Comments: 0

By Gregory Haley, Jesse Allen, and Liz Allan TSMC told equipment vendors to delay deliveries of the most advanced tools due to uncertain demand, according to Reuters. The news drove down stock prices of all the major equipment providers. On the other hand, TSMC said advanced packaging shortages will constrain AI chip shipments for the next 18 months, according to NikkeiAsia. The United St... » read more
