Week In Review: Auto, Security, Pervasive Computing
By SE Staff - 21 Aug, 2020 - Comments: 0

Pervasive computing — data center, edge, IoT SEMI formed a new standards committee to develop global standards for flexible hybrid electronics (FHE). The SEMI Standards Flexible Hybrid Electronics Global Technical Committee will develop FHE standards for design, materials, manufacturing, packaging and systems and to drive industry growth. IPC is also working on FHE standards as an industry s... » read more

Monitoring Chips After Manufacturing
By Brian Bailey - 19 Aug, 2020 - Comments: 2

New regulations and variability of advanced process nodes are forcing chip designers to insert additional capabilities in silicon to help with comprehension, debug, analytics, safety, security, and design optimization. The impact of this will be far-reaching as the industry discusses what capabilities can be shared between these divergent tasks, the amount of silicon area to dedicate to it, ... » read more

Blog Review: Aug. 19

Rambus' Scott Best digs into some of the most sophisticated attacks used to target and compromise security chips, such as laser voltage probing, focused ion beam editing, reverse engineering, and NVM extraction, and ways to counter them. Synopsys' Chris Clark proposes a way to identify problems earlier and better ensure safety and reliability in automotive SoCs by moving from a linear develo... » read more

From Cloud To Cloudlets
By Ed Sperling - 17 Aug, 2020 - Comments: 0

Cloudlets, or mini-clouds, are starting to roll out closer to the sources of data in an effort to reduce latency and improve overall processing performance. But as this approach gains steam, it also is creating some new challenges involving data distribution, storage and security. The growing popularity of distributed clouds is a recognition that the cloud model has limitations. Sending the ... » read more

Week In Review: Design, Low Power
By Jesse Allen - 14 Aug, 2020 - Comments: 0

Cadence added new machine learning functionality to its Xcelium Logic Simulator to speed verification closure on randomized regressions. Xcelium ML directly interfaces to the simulation kernel and learns iteratively over an entire simulation regression, guiding the Xcelium randomization kernel on subsequent regression runs to achieve matching coverage with reduced simulation cycles. Kioxia adop... » read more

Preparing For A Barrage Of Physical Effects
By Ann Mutschler - 13 Aug, 2020 - Comments: 0

Advancements in 3D transistors and packaging continue to enable better power and performance in a given footprint, but they also require more attention to physical effects stemming from both increased density and vertical stacking. Even in planar chips developed at 3nm, it will be more difficult to build both thin and thick oxide devices, which will have an impact on everything from power to... » read more
