Chip Industry Week In Review


The University of Texas at Austin’s Texas Institute for Electronics (TIE) was awarded $840 million to establish a Department of Defense microelectronics manufacturing center. This center will focus on developing advanced semiconductor microsystems to enhance U.S. defense systems. The project is part of DARPA's NGMM Program. The U.S. Dept. of Commerce announced preliminary terms with Global... » read more

HW Security: Flip-Flops Along Logic Gates to Prevent Synthesis Tools’ Structural Leakages (TU Dresden, Ruhr Univ. Bochum)


A new technical paper titled "Flip-Lock: A Flip-Flop-Based Logic Locking Technique for Thwarting ML-based and Algorithmic Structural Attacks" was published by researchers at TU Dresden and Ruhr University Bochum. Abstract "Machine learning (ML) and algorithmic structural attacks have highlighted the possibility of utilizing structural leakages of an obfuscated circuit to reverse engineer th... » read more

NeuroHammer Attacks on ReRAM-Based Memories


A new technical paper titled "NVM-Flip: Non-Volatile-Memory BitFlips on the System Level" was published by researchers at Ruhr-University Bochum, University of Duisburg-Essen, and Robert Bosch. Abstract "Emerging non-volatile memories (NVMs) are promising candidates to substitute conventional memories due to their low access latency, high integration density, and non-volatility. These super... » read more

Chip Industry Week In Review


President Biden will raise the tariff rate on Chinese semiconductors from 25% to 50% by 2025, among other measures to protect U.S. businesses from China’s trade practices. Also, as part of President Biden’s AI Executive Order, the Administration released steps to protect workers from AI risks, including human oversight of systems and transparency about what systems are being used. Intel ... » read more

Research Bits: May 10


Growing 2D TMDs on chips Researchers from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Oak Ridge National Laboratory, and Ericsson Research found a way to “grow” layers of 2D transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) materials directly on top of a fully fabricated silicon chip, a technique they say could enable denser integrations. The researchers focused on molybdenum disulfide, which is f... » read more

Chip Industry’s Technical Paper Roundup: Jan. 17


New technical papers added to Semiconductor Engineering’s library. [table id=74 /] If you have research papers you are trying to promote, we will review them to see if they are a good fit for our global audience. At a minimum, papers need to be well researched and documented, relevant to the semiconductor ecosystem, and free of marketing bias. There is no cost involved for us posting li... » read more

Hardware Trojan Detection Case Study Based on 4 Different ICs Manufactured in Progressively Smaller CMOS Process Technologies


A technical paper titled "Red Team vs. Blue Team: A Real-World Hardware Trojan Detection Case Study Across Four Modern CMOS Technology Generations" was published by researchers at Max Planck Institute for Security and Privacy, Université catholique de Louvain (Belgium), Ruhr University Bochum, and Bundeskriminalamt. "In this work, we aim to improve upon this state of the art by presenting a... » read more
