Coming Back for Seconds

Design West 2012 Part Two
by Amelia Dalton

In this week’s Fish Fry, I look into two ever-present themes at this year’s Design West Expo: power and software. On the software side, I interview David Kleidermacher (Green Hills Software – CTO) about embedded security, virtualization, and even Green Hills’s collaboration with Nintendo. On the power side, I chat with Infinite Power Solutions about energy harvesting and find out why they don’t call themselves “Limited Power Solutions”.

I have one more MAX V CPLD Development Kit courtesy of Altera to give away this week, but you’ll have to listen to find out how to win.

Demo: Low-Power Machine Learning Inference with DesignWare ARC EM9D Processor IP

Sponsored by Synopsys

Applications that require sensing on a continuous basis are always on and often battery operated. In this video, the low-power ARC EM9D Processors run a handwriting character recognition neural network graph to infer the letter that is written.

The Cryptography Handbook

Sponsored by Maxim Integrated

The Cryptography Handbook is designed to be a quick study guide for a product development engineer, taking an engineering rather than theoretical approach. In this series, we start with a general overview and then define the characteristics of a secure cryptographic system. We then describe various cryptographic concepts and provide an implementation-centric explanation of physically unclonable function (PUF) technology. We hope that this approach will give the busy engineer a quick understanding of the basic concepts of cryptography and provide a relatively fast way to integrate security in his/her design.

Selecting the Right MOSFET: BLDC Motor Control in Battery Applications

Sponsored by Mouser Electronics and Nexperia

An increasing number of applications today rely on brushless motors, and that means we need smooth, efficient motor control. Choosing the right MOSFET can have a significant impact on the performance of your design. In this episode of Chalk Talk, Amelia Dalton chats with Tom Wolf of Nexperia about MOSFET requirements for brushless motor control, and how to chooser the right MOSFET for your design.
