Non-volatile bistable memory circuits being developed by Satoshi Sugahara and his team at Tokyo Tech pave the way for highly energy-efficient CMOS logic systems. lesen...
For safety-relevant applications, tool manufacturers have to subject their software tools to rigorous testing. The experience gained in this process can be for the benefit of customers as well. lesen...
At this week’s International Solid State Circuits Conference (ISSCC 2013), imec and Holst Centre presented an ultra-low power processor that operates reliably at near-threshold voltages. lesen...
When using MCU multi-core architectures for "deeply embedded" applications, different rules apply for symmetric multiprocessing on identical cores with support of an encapsulating OS. This poses an entirely new set of challenges for chip suppliers, tool manufacturers and users. lesen...
An efficient power management is a must for today´s engineers due to the recent ErP rules of the European Union. While the changeover from AC to BLDC and PMSM Drives will improve system efficiency significantly, the advanced motion controller will further save energy. lesen...
Dedicated, customisable motor control ICs and single-chip drivers can help appliance designers meet new, tougher ecodesign legislation as the ErP rules of the European Union. lesen...
When the first digital display links with Gigabit data rates found their way into cars a few years ago, it looked like the bandwidth issue could be taken off the table for a while. Far from it! lesen...
Digital isolators have made an already complicated puzzle of safety standards even more confusing because not all standards address the requirements for digital isolators. lesen...
As one of the world's major semiconductor manufacturers, Texas Instruments offers digital and analog devices. 30 years ago, the company introduced its first digital signal processor. lesen...
The printed circuit board cost is a major factor in the price of electronic boards. And during the last 2 years there has been an increase of the average cost, ... lesen...
There is a well-entrenched and long-held view in the industry that for ASIC design, in the digital, analogue or mixed-signal domain, the only tools that will to deliver a workable solution are those from the major EDA tool companies. The assumption is that low-cost IC design tools will not deliver the required functionality or have the necessary process design kit (PDK) support for the target foundries. lesen...
Researchers of the Institute for Print and Media Technology at Chemnitz University of Technology [pmTUC] presented solar modules printed on standard paper using printing inks with electrical properties lesen...
Imec realized a fT/fMAX 245GHz/450GHz SiGe:C heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) device, a key enabler for future high-volume millimeter-wave low-power circuits to be used in automotive radar applications. lesen...
Atmel's AVR microcontroller architecture was developed in 1996. AVR was one of the first MCU families to use on-chip flash memory. ELEKTRONIKPRAXIS spoke with AVR founder Alf-Egil Bogen, Chief Marketing Officer at Atmel. lesen...
How one design team put a full single-board computer with SATA into a Xilinx FPGA. The joint solution would not have been possible without short turnaround times between two Xilinx Alliance Program Partners. lesen...
Only a protection against "environmental influences" and disturbing electrical currents will allow a broad use of mobile electronic devices and sensors even under extreme conditions. lesen...
As bandwidth requirements for applications such as wireless, wireline and medical/imaging processing continue to grow, designers depend on the toolsets necessary to provide them with the real-time signal processing capabilities that are needed. lesen...
The large number of devices, the high bill of materials, and the increased board space for developing board power supplies are a thing of the past. A single Platform Manager chip offers the latest power management solution. lesen...
