What do wafer-thin nano membranes made from synthetic diamonds and open standards for next generation electronic systems have in common? Yep, you guessed it! This here podcast! This week David Jedynak (Curtiss-Wright) and I chat all about the past, present, and future of VITA standards. We also explore how VITA standards could be expanded into broader markets like critical infrastructure and medical applications and where David sees VITA headed … Read More → "New Avenues for Open Standards: Expanding VITA into Broader Markets"
I’ve just been introduced to a solution to a computer memory problem I didn’t even know existed. To be honest, I think I was happier not knowing there was a problem in the first place (“Ignorance is bliss,” as the ancient Latin writer, Publilius Syrus sagely suggested).
When I look back, I’ve had a long and involved … Read More → "Rambus’s RAMPART Will Rout Rowhammer"
If you use low-cost – er – cost-effective FPGAs, there’s great news. You’ll have more choices sometime next year. AMD has just provided more details on its Spartan UltraScale+ FPGA family, based on TSMC’s 16nm FinFET process. These FPGAs will directly compete with Altera’s Agilex 3 FPGAs, when they appear. When it declared its independence from Intel on February 29, Altera reiterated a commitment to extend the … Read More → "AMD announces I/O-heavy Spartan UltraScale+ FPGA subfamily for low-cost designs"
Last month, Intel chucked a year’s worth of announcements into an event called “Intel Foundry Direct Connect.” Early in the event’s first two hours, Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger announced the splitting of the company into Intel Products and Intel Foundry and introduced an advisory committee for Intel Foundry consisting of four high-powered luminaries:
This week I am delighted to welcome Animals Around The Globe co-founder Christopher Weber to Fish Fry! Christopher and I explore the intersection of wildlife and technology including the importance of wildlife tracking, the trends Christopher is seeing in this arena and new technologies being used today to track wildlife around the world. Also this week, I check out how new bionic jellyfish could be used to gather climate … Read More → "Lions, Tigers, and Jellyfish! Cutting-Edge Technologies for Wildlife Tracking"
