Automotive, Mobility Tesla employees have been viewing customer videos, according to an investigative report by Reuters. The news outlet surveyed and interviewed Tesla employees, who described using the footage for both legitimate purposes and entertainment purposes within the company. Some employees forwarded videos to coworkers. Even Tesla CEO Elon Musk was not immune. Employees found an in... » read more

How To Safeguard Memory Interfaces By Design
By Dana Neustadter - 06 Apr, 2023 - Comments: 0

By Dana Neustadter and Brett Murdock In 2017, the credit bureau Equifax announced that hackers had breached its system, unleashing the personal information of 147-million people. As a result, the company has settled a class action suit for $425 million to aid those impacted, including identity theft, fraud, financial losses, and the expenses to clean up the damage. Whether the threat is iden... » read more

Chiplet Security Risks Underestimated
By Ann Mutschler - 06 Apr, 2023 - Comments: 0

The semiconductor ecosystem is abuzz with the promise of chiplets, but there is far less attention being paid to security in those chiplets or the heterogeneous systems into which they will be integrated. Disaggregating SoCs into chiplets significantly alters the cybersecurity threat landscape. Unlike a monolithic multi-function chip, which usually is manufactured using the same process tech... » read more

The Architect’s Dilemma And Closing The Loop With Implementation
By Frank Schirrmeister - 06 Apr, 2023 - Comments: 0

Gordon Moore has left a mark on our industry. Moore's Law has shaped decades of development. The EDA industry has been moving up the layers of abstraction to increase the productivity and predictability of design flows in our efforts to address the ever-increasing complexity of semiconductors and electronics developments. I had written about it in "Chasing The Next Level Of Productivity" not lo... » read more

What’s Required To Secure Chips

Experts at the Table: Semiconductor Engineering sat down to talk about how to verify that a semiconductor design will be secure, with Mike Borza, Synopsys scientist; John Hallman, product manager for trust and security at Siemens EDA; Pete Hardee, group director for product management at Cadence; Paul Karazuba, vice president of marketing at Expedera; and Dave Kelf, CEO of Breker Verification. ... » read more

Blog Review: April 5
By Jesse Allen - 05 Apr, 2023 - Comments: 0

Synopsys's Gordon Cooper argues that AI transformer models, initially developed for natural language processing such as translation and question answering, are starting to make inroads in the computer vision application landscape and changing the direction of deep-learning architectures. Siemens' Patrick Hope shows how to identify opportunities to optimize a PCB design through the creation o... » read more

Threat Modeling, Decoded — Charting The Security Journey
By Synopsys - 05 Apr, 2023 - Comments: 0

Connected systems are part of the modern world. There is virtually no aspect of life that is not available online, from shopping and booking tickets to dating, banking, and attending medical appointments. And these trends show no sign of stopping. On the contrary, many services are moving to digital-first or digital-only models, and every day, new products— from toasters to autonomous vehicle... » read more

Mechanical Challenges Rise With Heterogeneous Integration
By Ed Sperling - 03 Apr, 2023 - Comments: 0

Companies integrating multiple chips or chiplets into a package will need to address structural and other mechanical engineering issues, but gaps in the design tools, new materials and interconnect technologies, and a shortage of expertise are making it difficult to address those issues. Throughout most of the history of the semiconductors, few people outside of foundries worried about struc... » read more

Week In Review: Design, Low Power
By Susan Rambo - 31 Mar, 2023 - Comments: 0

Synopsys rolled out an AI-driven design suite called Synopsys.ai at the Synopsys User Group conference this week, which it says reduces time to better results at multiple points in the design flow. The company noted the new technology uses reinforcement learning, which compensates for relatively small data sets by allowing engineers to interact with that data more easily at any point, and to ch... » read more
