Automotive Driver Assistance Systems: Using the Processing Power of FPGAs

Automotive electronic content is continuing to grow at a robust pace, due in large part to consumer demand for safety, comfort, convenience, and entertainment. In the wake of that trend, the industry is witnessing a revolution in the design of the automotive instrument panel in step with the exponential increase in the amount of information available for communication to the driver and front-seat passenger. Engineers are leveraging FPGAs to drive these innovations to market faster. FPGAs have reached a tipping point in terms of affordability that has elevated the technology from a rapid-prototyping tool to an affordable, flexible, high-volume production platform. In the case of the new generation of automotive instrument clusters, the FPGA can now provide the means for the business manager and product architect alike to reconcile the onslaught of varying function and performance requirements with the highly constrained engineering budgets that are a near-universal reality.

  1. Hello sir
    Please sir am try to see how i can construct a laboratory for my personal research talents according to your information to be teaching me
    For what I need now as courses to be full with good ideas of lab ; I which I have been informing you for cancer and diabetes drugs discovery suddenly I hope this is time to show enough of my intellectual for across your help for me to be giving me courses .
    Please do not give up I really need your help now impression particular for lab courses for a example physiology ; biochemistry ; physics technology medical ; surgery and lab materials the functions ; pharmacology geochemistry ; ecology and how to build a good lab to transform drugs ; with medication chemical for all living organism . Thank you very . I all ways traveling to visit cancer and diabetes patients ; to develop good courage to be sure of what am doing so that I can be able to face the tomorrow generation items of cancer and diabetes .

Quickly and accurately identify inter-domain leakage issues in IC designs

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Power domain leakage is a major IC reliability issue, often missed by traditional tools. This white paper describes challenges of identifying leakage, types of false results, and presents Siemens EDA’s Insight Analyzer. The tool proactively finds true leakage paths, filters out false positives, and helps circuit designers quickly fix risks—enabling more robust, reliable chip designs. With detailed, context-aware analysis, designers save time and improve silicon quality.
