Who, What, When and How of Photonic Processors
Our conversation with Yole Group’s chief analyst Eric Mounier offers the lay of the optical computing marketplace.
ST Charges its Edge AI Push with Biosensor MEMS
Edge AI applications are the rage for semiconductor vendors. Everyone is talking about it and trying to gain a strong foothold with innovative applications. STMicroelectronics joined the throng at Electronica.
Q.ANT With First Optical Computer for AI
How will Q.ANT’s photonics-based Native Processing Unit (NPU) fit Into the AI processing done on existing datacenter GPUs and CPUs?
Where Are We Headed with China?
Is there an end-game strategy for the simmering tech Cold War with China or should electronics companies expect to be locked into an environment of endless skirmishes with ill-defined playing rules? What exactly do the governments involved in these geopolitical tussles want and who will determine when the objectives are achieved? The industry deserves answers.
Smarter, Safer, More Responsive: The Future of IoT Is Here
By embedding AI/ML capabilities directly into IoT devices, we enable real-time data analysis and decision-making at the source.
RISC-V: Epitome of Decoupled World
The Electronica trade fair in Munich has revealed a glimpse of what’s to come in a divided tech world where having a single “global solution” no longer works.
AI Past, Present, and Future (Part 1)
The more powerful AI becomes, the more polarizing it gets. Some people love it, others loathe it, and there are those who are becoming increasingly fearful of what may be coming our way.
Chip Industry’s Talent Drain: Can Apple Buck the Trend?
The workforce shortage is an issue that has nagged the chip industry for decades. Georgia Tech has joined Apple’s New Chip Initiative (NCI) program. A professor explains how the program could help narrow the “skill gap” of his engineering student.
Japan and Tenstorrent Plan ‘AI Chip Design School’
The Japanese government-sponsored engineering training program will certainly allow Tenstorrent to establish a solid presence in Japan. But what’s in it for Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry (METI)?
Who Decides Edge AI Winners in Embedded?
In data centers, ML researchers’ vote for Nvidia is what made Nvidia a runaway success in AI training. On the embedded market, who holds the key for edge AI?
Welcome to the Wonderful World of NoCs
Anyone involved in the design of large digital silicon chips is familiar with the term Network-on-Chip (NoC), but relatively few people are cognizant of the underlying concepts.
Getting to the Bottom of Backside Power Delivery
The expected early adopters of Backside Power Delivery (BPD) are also early users of multi-die advanced packaging and chiplets. But the two technologies — BPD and chiplets — may not play well together. So, what to do?
Intel-Samsung Foundry Union is a Non-Starter
Intel and Samsung are iconic enterprises in their respective nations. A union of their foundry operations, just so they can better compete against TSMC, is nonsensical. It will face huge political hurdles and is highly improbable.
Arm vs. Qualcomm Marks the End of an Era
Throughout its evolution Arm made a point for never competing with its customers. But taking Qualcomm to court – win or lose – is a form of competition, and marks the end of an era for what Arm used to stand up for.
Anatomy of Software in Software-Defined Vehicles
With this “Anatomy of Software” Panel, we zoomed in on the “S” in “SDV”.
TSMC Won the Foundry War. Now the Fallout Begins
The company that won the foundry war finds itself with no close competitor and the opposition in disarray. Will TSMC have to help its rivals become competitive to fend off anti-trust regulators and avoid pressure from Western governments?
Chiplets: ‘Kluge’ or Answer to OEMs’ Automotive SoC Dilemma?
Chiplets are already a reality for high-performance compute semiconductors in data centers. In contrast, when will carmakers start craving auto-grade chiplets— ? at prices OEMs can afford?
The Evolution and Future of Chiplets
Everyone is talking about chiplets and making plans to use it in various ways, but questions persist about what it is. We give a breakdown of what came before and what you can expect as chiplets proliferate.
How Will Electronics Industry Fare Under Harris or Trump?
Americans will elect a new president November 5. Their decision will impact the electronics industry. How much will depend upon which of the two leading candidates is declared winner.
A Look Through Technology Time Portal
In this debut column for the Ojo-Yoshida Report, Clive Maxfield saunters through time, reviewing decades-old technological innovations only to realize that today, ‘we are surrounded by technologies that would have blown the mind and boggled the brain of 1970s me.’
