The automotive industry is undergoing a major transformation, driven by electrification, the rise of new market players, and the rapid adoption of emerging technologies such as AI. Among the most significant advancements is the growing adoption of RISC-V, an open-standard… Read More
The automotive industry has long evolved gradually—but 2024 proved to be anything but typical. With major automaker CEOs resigning and suppliers facing unexpected challenges, including a downturn in semiconductor demand despite increasing chip content per vehicle, the landscape
Engineered substrate technology is driving an evolution within the semiconductor industry. As Moore’s Law reaches its limits, the focus is shifting from traditional planar wafer scaling to innovative material engineering and 3D integration. Companies like Soitec, Intel and Samsung are pioneering this transition, unlocking… Read More
The security of a device or system depends mainly on being unable to infer or guess an alphanumeric code needed to gain access to it or its data, be that a password or an encryption key. In automotive applications, the security requirement goes one step further – an attacker may not gain access per se, but if they can compromise vehicle… Read More
Last week, Synopsys announced an expansion of their Hardware-Assisted Verification (HAV) portfolio to accelerate semiconductor design innovations. These advancements are designed to meet the increasing demands of semiconductor complexity, enabling faster and more efficient verification across software and hardware… Read More
