Design Challenges Increasing For Mixed-Die Packages
By Ann Mutschler - 09 Feb, 2022 - Comments: 0

The entire semiconductor ecosystem is starting to tackle a long list of technology and business changes that will be needed to continue scaling beyond Moore's Law, making heterogeneous combinations of die easier, cheaper, and more predictable. There are a number of benefits to mixing die and putting them together in a modular way. From a design standpoint, this approach provides access to th... » read more

Calibrate And Configure Your Power Management IC With NVM IP
By Synopsys - 09 Feb, 2022 - Comments: 0

Power Management Integrated Circuits (PMICs) are the first to turn on and the last to turn off in a system. They perform the task of delivering the right voltage to component chips by regulating or boosting the voltage levels to the component chips. Some PMICs are configured once at the factory and an area-efficient OTP NVM is the best choice. When a PMIC is expected to be re-configured mult... » read more

Arm's Mark Inskip walks through how the Morello program built a demonstration of the architecture that enables fine-grained memory protection and highly scalable software compartmentalization based on the CHERI (Capability Hardware Enhanced RISC Instructions) architectural model, from IP development and SoC design to creating software and a demonstration board. Synopsys' Plamen Asenov and su... » read more

Unknowns Driving Up The Cost Of Auto IC Reliability
By Ed Sperling - 08 Feb, 2022 - Comments: 2

Automotive chipmakers are considering a variety of options to improve the reliability of ICs used for everything from sensors to artificial intelligence. But collectively they could boost the number of process steps, increase the time spent in manufacturing and packaging, and stir up concerns about the amount of data that needs to be collected, shared, and stored. Accounting for advanced pro... » read more

Evolution Of Data Center Networking Technology — IP And Beyond
By Synopsys - 08 Feb, 2022 - Comments: 0

Ethernet is ubiquitous—it is the core technology that defines the Internet and serves to connect the world in ways that people could not imagine even one generation ago. HPC clusters are working on solving the most challenging problems facing humanity—and cloud computing is the service hosting many of the application workloads struggling with these questions. While alternative network infra... » read more

Is A Guestimate Good Enough For Obtaining Failure Mode Distribution?
By Jamileh Davoudi - 08 Feb, 2022 - Comments: 0

SoCs targeting automotive applications are required to meet certain safety and quality standards as described in ISO 26262. A quantitative approach to safety analysis involves performing Failure Mode Effects and Diagnostic Analysis (FMEDA). FMEDA is a systematic quantitative analysis technique to obtain subsystem/product level failure rates, failure modes and diagnostic capabilities of systemat... » read more

Data Security Challenges In Automotive
By Ann Mutschler - 03 Feb, 2022 - Comments: 1

Automakers are scrambling to prevent security breaches and data hacks in new vehicles while simultaneously adding new and increasingly autonomous features into vehicles that can open the door to new vulnerabilities. These two goals are often at odds. As with security in any complex system, nothing is ever completely secure. But even getting a handle on this multilayered issue is a challenge.... » read more

HDCP 2.3: Enabling Robust Security Of High-Res Displays
By Dana Neustadter - 03 Feb, 2022 - Comments: 0

Displays, monitors and touchscreens are the interface to our digital lives everywhere—at home, at work, and in the car. Display designers continuously upgrade their products with higher bandwidth, new technologies, and innovative features. New, modular products incorporate micro LEDs to allow new form factors, such as designing displays that are as thin as a canvas, can be rolled up, or can b... » read more

Augment Or Replace? How IAST Fits Into The AppSec Landscape
By Synopsys - 02 Feb, 2022 - Comments: 0

As the pace, volume, and complexity of application development continue to escalate, it becomes increasingly difficult to maintain software security and quality. More speed, more volume, and more complexity too often lead to less security and less quality. Interactive application security testing (IAST) is an exciting option for organizations looking to maintain both the speed and complexity... » read more
