TechInsights has a new memory report that is worth a look. It is free if you are a registered member which I am. HBM is of great interest and there is a section on emerging and embedded memories for chip designers. Even though I am more of a logic person, memory is an important part of the semiconductor industry. In fact, logic and memory
Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are evolving at an extraordinary pace, powering advancements across industries. As models grow larger and more sophisticated, they require vast amounts of data to be processed in real-time. This demand puts pressure on the underlying hardware infrastructure, particularly… Read More
As the demand for higher performance computing solutions grows, so does the need for faster, more efficient data communication between components in complex multi-die system-on-chip (SoC) designs. In response to these needs, Synopsys has introduced the world’s fastest UCIe-based IP solution, capable of operating at a groundbreaking… Read More

Memory Hierarchy and the Memory Wall
Computer programs mainly move data around. In the meantime, they do some computations on the data but the bulk of execution time and energy is spent moving data around. In computer jargon we say that applications tend to be memory bound: this means that memory is the main performance limiting … Read More
