Research Bits: November 14
By Jesse Allen - 14 Nov, 2023 - Comments: 0

Solid-state thermal transistor for heat management Researchers from University of California Los Angeles created a stable and fully solid-state thermal transistor that uses an electric field to control a semiconductor device’s heat movement. It is compatible with integrated circuits in semiconductor manufacturing processes. The team’s design incorporates the field effect on charge dynamics... » read more

Rethinking Engineering Education In The U.S.
By Karen Heyman - 11 May, 2023 - Comments: 7

The CHIPS Act, as well as the ongoing need for talent, is causing both industry and academia in America to rethink engineering education, resulting in new approaches and stronger partnerships. As an example, Arizona State University (ASU) now has a Secure, Trusted, and Assured Microelectronics Center (STAM). The center offers an interdisciplinary approach to learning secure and trusted semic... » read more

Research Bits: April 10

Meminductor identified Researchers at Texas A&M University identified the meminductor circuit unit. Similar to the memristor and the memcapacitor, a meminductor has a memory-like nature where its properties are dependent on previous values. The resistor, capacitor, and inductor comprise the three classical circuit elements. The memristor and the memcapacitor, while earlier theorized, ha... » read more

A Full-Stack Domain-Specific Overlay Generation Framework Verified On FPGA
By Technical Paper Link - 12 Oct, 2022 - Comments: 0

A new technical paper titled "OverGen: Improving FPGA Usability through Domain-specific Overlay Generation" by researchers at UCLA and Chinese Academy of Sciences. "Our essential idea is to develop a hardware generation framework targeting a highly-customizable overlay, so that the abstraction gap can be lowered by tuning the design instance to applications of interest. We leverage and ext... » read more

Week In Review: Manufacturing, Test
By Karen Heyman - 26 Aug, 2022 - Comments: 0

Regional Shifts Supply chains are moving away from China. Apple, Honda, and Mazda are in line to diversify their manufacturing across different regions, according to one report. Another report says Apple plans to manufacture some of its new iPhone 14s in India. Mexico wants to be part of U.S.’s drive to move chip manufacturing closer to home, hosting American financiers to discuss elect... » read more

Reporting and Benchmarking Process For A 2D Semiconductor FET
By Technical Paper Link - 29 Jul, 2022 - Comments: 0

New research paper titled "How to Report and Benchmark Emerging Field-Effect Transistors" was published from researchers at NIST, Purdue University, UCLA, Theiss Research, Peking University, NYU, Imec, RWTH Aachen, and others. "Emerging low-dimensional nanomaterials have been studied for decades in device applications as field-effect transistors (FETs). However, properly reporting and compar... » read more

Toward Democratized IC Design And Customized Computing
By Jason Cong - 28 Jun, 2022 - Comments: 0

Integrated circuit (IC) design is often considered a “black art,” restricted to only those with advanced degrees or years of training in electrical engineering. Given that the semiconductor industry is struggling to expand its workforce, IC design must be rendered more accessible. The benefit of customized computing General-purpose computers are widely used, but their performance improv... » read more
