Probing UPF Dynamic Objects
By Mentor, a Siemens Business - 11 Nov, 2020 - Comments: 0

This paper presents a new low-power verification methodology that makes it possible to continuously monitor the dynamic properties of UPF objects and utilize the information to develop custom low-power verification environments. Based on UPF information model concepts, it allows querying of any dynamic properties of UPF objects through a Tcl API and passing object information on to appropriatel... » read more

Does HW Vs. SW Choice Affect Quality And Reliability?
By Bryon Moyer - 10 Nov, 2020 - Comments: 0

Electronic systems comprise both hardware and software. Which functions are implemented with hardware and which with software are decisions made based upon a wide variety of considerations, including concerns about quality and reliability. Hardware may intrinsically provide for higher device quality, but it is also the source of reliability concerns. This is in contrast with popular views of... » read more

Growing Complexity Adds To Auto IC Safety Challenges
By Ann Mutschler - 05 Nov, 2020 - Comments: 0

The automotive industry is working to streamline, automate and tame verification of automotive electronic control units, SoCs and other chips used in vehicles, many of which are becoming so complex and intertwined that progress is getting bogged down. Modern cars may have up to 100 ECUs, which control such vehicle functions as engine, powertrain, transmission, brakes, suspension, entertainme... » read more

New And Innovative Supply Chain Threats Emerging
By Bryon Moyer - 05 Nov, 2020 - Comments: 1

The electronics supply chain is seeing evidence of increased sophistication in the counterfeiting of complex ICs and simple passives, both of which can impact the functioning and safety of the systems that use them. New technologies are being developed to build trust by helping to identify counterfeit devices before assembly and during failure analysis. It's too early to tell how effective t... » read more
