Effective Elements List And Transitive Natures Of UPF Commands
By Mentor, a Siemens Business - 15 Jul, 2019 - Comments: 0

Although UPF is very well defined through IEEE 1801 LRM, it is often difficult to comprehend many primitive and inherent features of individual UPF commands-options or relations between different varieties of UPF commands-options. In this paper, we provide a simplistic approach to find inherent links between UPF commands-options through their transitive nature. We also explain how these inheren... » read more

Tackling Safety And Security
By Brian Bailey - 10 Jul, 2019 - Comments: 0

Semiconductor Engineering sat down to discuss industry attitudes towards safety and security with Dave Kelf, chief marketing officer for Breker Verification; Jacob Wiltgen, solutions architect for functional safety at Mentor, a Siemens Business; David Landoll, solutions architect for OneSpin Solutions; Dennis Ciplickas, vice president of characterization solutions at PDF Solutions; Andrew Dauma... » read more

Blog Review: July 10
By Jesse Allen - 10 Jul, 2019 - Comments: 0

Synopsys' Eric Huang takes a look at how backward compatibility with USB 2.0 is provided when the IO voltages of new nodes can't support 3.3V signaling and how eUSB2 can boost the signal and provide support for external or legacy peripherals. In a video, Mentor Colin Walls explains endianness in embedded systems with a look at what it is, when it matters, and how to accommodate it in code. ... » read more

Challenges Of Logic BiST In Automotive ICs
By Mohammed Abdelwahid - 09 Jul, 2019 - Comments: 1

The electronics in passenger cars continues to grow, and much of it is bound by the strict functional safety requirements formalized in the ISO 26262 standard. The ICs that drive the electronics systems in automobiles are also increasingly complex, designed to execute artificial intelligence algorithms that govern emerging self-driving capabilities. Designers are quickly adopting comprehensi... » read more

Silicon Photonics Begins To Make Inroads
By Kevin Fogarty and Ed Sperling - 09 Jul, 2019 - Comments: 1

Integrating photons and electrons on the same die is still a long way off, but advances in packaging and improvements in silicon photonics are making it possible to use optical communication for a variety of new applications. Utilizing light-based communication between chips, or in self-contained modules, ultimately could have a big impact on chip design. Photons moving through waveguides ar... » read more

5G OTA Test Not Ready For Production
By Kevin Fogarty - 09 Jul, 2019 - Comments: 0

5G is poised to dominate the wireless world, but over-the-air (OTA) testing of 5G beamforming antennas is still not ready for volume production. Beamforming is a critical element in the millimeter wave version of 5G, because of the limitations of ultra-high-frequency signals. Unlike 4G and its predecessors, millimeter wave technology will not penetrate objects, so signals need to be directed... » read more

EDA, IP Grow 16.3%
By Ed Sperling - 08 Jul, 2019 - Comments: 0

EDA and IP revenue rebounded in Q1, with all geographies reporting increases, according to the ESD Alliance Market Statistics Service. Total revenue increased to 16.3% to $2.606 billion, up from $2.241 billion in the same period in 2018. The global numbers do not reflect the impact of a trade war between the United States and China, which occurred in Q2, but they do point to a significant re... » read more

Blog Review: July 3

Cadence's Paul McLellan digs into 5G with a two-part post explaining the basics of the technology, what makes it so different from 4G, and the challenges ahead including the limitations of mmWave. Synopsys' Vikramjeet Bamel and Pankaj Sharma note the features that make GDDR6 a dominant memory in the high performance segment and allowing it to expand beyond graphics to automotive, AI, and AR/... » read more

Edge Complexity To Grow For 5G
By Kevin Fogarty and Ed Sperling - 02 Jul, 2019 - Comments: 0

Edge computing is becoming as critical to the success of 5G as millimeter-wave technology will be to the success of the edge. In fact, it increasingly looks as if neither will succeed without the other. 5G networks won’t be able to meet 3GPP’s 4-millisecond-latency rule without some layer to deliver the data, run the applications and broker the complexities of multi-tier Internet apps ac... » read more

Machine Learning Inferencing Moves To Mobile Devices
By Kevin Fogarty - 02 Jul, 2019 - Comments: 0

It may sound retro for a developer with access to hyperscale data centers to discuss apps that can be measured in kilobytes, but the emphasis increasingly is on small, highly capable devices. In fact, Google staff research engineer Pete Warden points to a new app that uses less than 100 kilobytes for RAM and storage, creates an inference model smaller than 20KB, and which is capable of proce... » read more
