Week In Review: Design, Low Power
By Linda Christensen - 17 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

It’s earnings season. Arm, Cadence, Synopsys, Siemens (consolidated), Rambus, and Renesas reported quarterly results over the past couple weeks. All posted year-over-year revenue growth, despite an overall challenging macroeconomic climate. A roundup of all the chip industry earnings reports from the past several weeks can be found here. The edge computing market is projected to jump to al... » read more

Devices And Transistors For The Next 75 Years
By Laura Peters - 16 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

The 75th anniversary of the invention of the transistor sparked a lively panel discussion at IEDM, spurring debate about the future of CMOS, the role of III-V and 2D materials in future transistors, and what will be the next great memory architecture.[1] Industry veterans from the memory, logic, and research communities see high-NA EUV production, NAND flash with 1,000 layers, and hybrid bon... » read more

Modeling Analytics for Computational Storage
By Samsung - 16 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

This paper discusses the expected performance benefits of offloading some important basic database operations — namely Scan, Filter and Project — to computational storage. We evaluate the performance estimate model using TPC-DS workload and two database engines running on Hadoop clusters: SPARK- SQL and Presto. This paper is organized as follows: after covering previous computational sto... » read more

Chiplets Taking Root As Silicon-Proven Hard IP
By Ann Mutschler - 09 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

Chiplets are all the rage today, and for good reason. With the various ways to design a semiconductor-based system today, IP reuse via chiplets appears to be an effective and feasible solution, and a potentially low-cost alternative to shrinking everything to the latest process node. To enable faster time to market, common IP or technology that already has been silicon-proven can be utilized... » read more

Week In Review: Semiconductor Manufacturing, Test
By Karen Heyman - 03 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

Imec released its semiconductor roadmap, which calls for doubling compute power every six months to handle the data explosion and new data-intensive problems. Imec named five walls (scaling, memory, power, sustainability, cost) that need to be dismantled. The roadmap (below) stretches from 7nm to 0.2nm (2 angstroms) by 2036, and includes four generations of gate-all-around FETs followed by thre... » read more

Solving Problems With The IoT
By John Koon - 02 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

The Internet of Things, a term once applied to almost any "smart" gadget connected to the Internet, is becoming more useful, more complex, and more of a security risk as the value of data continues to grow and more people depend on IoT technology. In the decades since the concept was first introduced, IoT devices have become so ubiquitous that applications cover practically every consumer, c... » read more

Week In Review: Semiconductor Manufacturing, Test
By Karen Heyman - 27 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 0

Starting in 2025, SEMICON West will move to Phoenix for a five-year annual rotation. And in 2024, it will shift dates from July to October. This year’s conference will still take place July 11 to 13 at the Moscone Center. Phoenix will first host SEMICON West on October 7-9, 2025. Thereafter, it will be held at the Moscone Center in San Francisco on the alternating years and over the long term... » read more

CXL Picks Up Steam In Data Centers
By Marie C. Baca - 26 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 0

CXL is gaining traction inside large data centers as a way of boosting utilization of different compute elements, such as memories and accelerators, while minimizing the need for additional racks of servers. But the standard is being extended and modified so quickly that it is difficult to keep up with all the changes, each of which needs to be verified and validated across a growing swath of h... » read more

Week In Review: Semiconductor Manufacturing, Test
By Karen Heyman - 20 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 0

Dutch tech industry group FME called for the European Commission to draft a position on whether and how to restrict computer chip technology exports to China, saying "more unified and powerful action" was needed from Europe, according to Reuters. Meanwhile, Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte said he saw gradual progress in talks with the U.S. over potential new restrictions on exporting chip-makin... » read more

The Path To Known Good Interconnects
By Laura Peters - 19 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 1

Chiplets and heterogenous integration (HI) provide a compelling way to continue delivering improvements in performance, power, area, and cost (PPAC) as Moore’s Law slows, but choosing the best way to connect these devices so they behave in consistent and predictable ways is becoming a challenge as the number of options continues to grow. More possibilities also bring more potential interac... » read more
