10 Impactful Technologies in 2023 and Beyond

There are many exciting technologies that are expected to shape the future, the following are some of the technologies that will impact our lives in the coming 5 years at different levels and depth:

Generative AI, also known as generative artificial intelligence, is a type of #AI that is designed to generate new content or data … Read More


Alphawave IP is now Alphawave Semi for a very good reason!

Alphawave IP is now Alphawave Semi for a very good reason!
by Daniel Nenni on 01-17-2023 at 6:00 am

datacenter technology sq

The semiconductor ecosystem has been full of interesting twists of late and Alphawave has been a company to watch since the very beginning. Alphawave came out of stealth mode in early 2019 as the world’s first IP company focused on multi-standard connectivity (SerDes) IP solutions. The importance of SerDes had been understated… Read More


Configurable Processors. The Why and How

Configurable Processors. The Why and How
by Bernard Murphy on 11-16-2022 at 6:00 am

ARC Configurability min

Configurable processors are hot now, in no small part thanks to RISC-V. Which is an ISA rather than a processor, but let’s not quibble. Arm followed with configurability in Cortex-X. Both were considerably preceded (a couple of decades) by Synopsys ARC® RISC CPUs and CEVA DSPs. Each stressed configurability as a differentiator… Read More


Higher-order QAM and smarter workflows in VSA 2023

Higher-order QAM and smarter workflows in VSA 2023
by Don Dingee on 10-25-2022 at 10:00 am

Higher-order QAM and smarter workflows in a 5G NR example from the Keysight 89600 VSA

3GPP Release 17 and 802.11be (Wi-Fi 7) extend modulation complexity, raising the bar for conformance testing and test instrumentation to new levels. The latest release of Keysight PathWave 89600 Vector Signal Analysis 2023 (VSA 2023) software takes on higher-order QAM and smarter workflows, many customer-requested, for … Read More

Arm 2022 Neoverse Update, Roadmap
by Bernard Murphy on 09-27-2022 at 6:00 am

Neoverse update min

Arm recently provided their annual update on the Neoverse product line, targeting infrastructure from cloud to communication to the edge. Chris Bergey (SVP and GM for infrastructure) led the update, starting with a shock-and-awe pitch on Neoverse deployment. He played up that Arm-based servers are now in every major public … Read More


5G for IoT Gets Closer

5G for IoT Gets Closer
by Bernard Murphy on 07-05-2022 at 6:00 am

5G for IoT

Very recently, 3GPP announced that 5G Release 17 was finalized. One important consequence is that 5G RedCap (reduced capacity) is now real and that means 5G becomes accessible to IoT devices. Think smart wearables (e.g. watches), industrial sensors and surveillance devices. “So what?”, you protest. “I don’t need 5G on my watch.… Read More


A Fresh Look at HLS Value

A Fresh Look at HLS Value
by Bernard Murphy on 06-21-2022 at 6:00 am

Streaming min

I’ve written several articles on High-Level Synthesis (HLS), designing in C, C++ or SystemC, then synthesizing to RTL. There is unquestionable appeal to the concept. A higher level of abstraction enables a function to be described in less lines of code (LOC). Which immediately offers higher productivity and implies less bugs… Read More


Connecting Everything, Everywhere, All at Once

Connecting Everything, Everywhere, All at Once
by Roger C. Lanctot on 05-29-2022 at 6:00 am

Connecting Everything Everywhere All at Once

The automotive industry is rapidly coming to the realization that connecting cars is about so much more than simply adding a modem, an antenna, and a bit of software. Connecting cars and connecting car owners with an attractive connectivity value proposition may be two of the most difficult things the industry has ever attempted.… Read More


Why Software Rules AI Success at the Edge

Why Software Rules AI Success at the Edge
by Bernard Murphy on 05-11-2022 at 6:00 am

flexlogix min

It is an unavoidable fact that machine learning (ML) hardware architectures are evolving rapidly. Initially most visible in datacenters (many hyperscalars have built their own AI chips), the trend is now red-hot in inference engines for the edge, each spinning new ground-breaking methods. Markets demand these advances to … Read More
