FD-SOI, the technology shaping the future of automotive radars
By Philippe Flatresse, Bich-Yen Nguyen, Rainer Lutz of SOITEC
I. Introduction
Automotive radar is a key enabler for the development of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous vehicles. The use of radar allows vehicles to sense their environment and make decisions based on that information, enhancing… Read More
Calling on #IoTman to save humanity!
We, in the hi-tech community, tend to gravitate towards the technology, the API, the device, the platform, the processes node and to forget the goal behind all of those items. We have all noticed the platform wars and cloud API struggle for #IoT market domination. Someone needs to bring back the discussion to the top level, to why … Read More
Heterogeneous Processing: Power Reduction and Performance Advances
Implementation of Heterogeneous processors has shown demonstrated reduction in power consumption and improved performance in mobile processors like ARM_big.LITTLE technology, where low power and relatively slower cores are coupled with the more powerful ARM cores.
