MIPI’s Focus Widens
By Ed Sperling - 09 Mar, 2023 - Comments: 0

Ashraf Takla, president and CEO of Mixel, sat down with Semiconductor Engineering to talk about the evolution of MIPI, from mobile displays to automotive, chiplets, and how the standard is evolving to keep up with increasing data volumes. SE: There has been a lot of activity around MIPI in automotive. What's driving that? Takla: One of the early use-cases for MIPI, after Mobile has been ... » read more

Physically Aware NoCs
By Ed Sperling - 06 Mar, 2023 - Comments: 0

More functions, greater security risks, and increasingly complicated integration of IP and various components below 7nm is increasing the time and effort it takes to get a functioning chip out the door. In many of these devices, the network on chip is the glue between various components, but it can take up to 10% to 12% of the total area of the SoC. Andy Nightingale, vice president of product m... » read more

Securing IoT Devices With Lightweight Cryptography
By Bart Stevens - 02 Mar, 2023 - Comments: 0

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) recently announced the selection of a new family of cryptographic algorithms called ASCON, which have been developed for lightweight cryptography applications. In this blog, we will explore what lightweight cryptography is and why it is worth considering for specific Internet of Things (IoT) use cases. In summary, lightweight cryptogr... » read more

Automotive IoT Security By Design
By Lee Harrison - 02 Mar, 2023 - Comments: 0

A good example of the wider adoption and application of IoT devices is in automotive uses. It’s a growing market, with the worldwide number of IoT-connected devices projected to increase to 43 billion by 2023, an almost threefold increase from 2018. The modern vehicles that host so many IoT devices are increasingly connected—for cellular over-the-air updates, but also potentially to comm... » read more

Security Highlight: Ascon
By Marc Witteman - 02 Mar, 2023 - Comments: 0

The contest for standardization of a lightweight crypto (LWC) algorithm has just finished. US standards body NIST selected Ascon as the winner. Ascon is an algorithm proposed by an international team of scientists that delivers strong performance and security at a low cost. How does that work? Lightweight crypto is symmetric encryption technology, that runs well on constrained systems, lik... » read more

Make The Right Choices For Enhanced Security On RISC-V
By David Marsden - 23 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

Two things are certain to make their presence felt at Embedded World 2023: the growing presence of RISC-V and the importance of safety and security in any embedded system. The breadth of RISC-V applications is expanding rapidly from IoT, mobile devices, to high performance computing, automotive and more. Its adoption, along with RISC-V International memberships, is also expanding from start... » read more

Simplifying Integration And Security In Home Networks
By Marie C. Baca - 13 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

An explosion of devices connected to the internet is driving vendors to implement standards that simplify the initial setup and improve security and integration with other devices, regardless of brand, network protocols, or country of origin. Farthest along in this multi-ecosystem merge is the Connectivity Standards Alliance (CSA), which today is supported by more than 500 companies, includi... » read more

Zero Trust Security In Chip Manufacturing
By Ed Sperling - 08 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

More equipment vendors and more IP are making the data in a fab much more valuable than in the past, and a potential target for hackers. What’s needed is a different approach to architecting and deploying services and equipment, so breaches can be stopped before they affect other equipment and data, and a better way of sharing data. Brian Buras, production analytics solution architect at Adva... » read more

Building Better Cars Faster
By John Koon - 02 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

Carmakers are accelerating their chip and electronic design schedules to remain competitive in an increasingly fast-changing market, but they are encountering gaps in the tooling, the supply chain, and in the methodologies they use to create those cars. While it's easy to envision how CAD software could be used to create the next new vehicle’s 3-D look, and how simulation software helps de... » read more

Protecting High-Speed Network Traffic With MACsec
By Dana Neustadter - 02 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

By Dana Neustadter and Jerry Lotto There is an ever-increasing demand for bandwidth, driven by an exponential growth in the number of devices connected to the cloud and a broadening variety of sensors, applications, and services, resulting in an explosion of data traffic. This in turn, drives the proliferation of high bandwidth interfaces such as Ethernet, PCIe/CXL, and DDR to sustain faster... » read more
