Understanding and Optimizing SoC Hardware Performance

by Max Maxfield

Are you involved in developing SoCs? Are you banging your head against the wall, desperately trying to determine why you aren’t obtaining the performance promised by the providers of your processor, interconnect, and DDR memory controller IPs? Do I have good news for you? (Spoiler alert. The answer to the last question is a resounding … Read More →

AMD Rocks with New Versal Gen 2 AI Edge SoC FPGAs

by Max Maxfield

The awesome new AMD devices to which I’ve just been introduced have sparked a trip down memory lane (I know you’re surprised, because I pride myself on my laser-like focus that prevents me from wandering off into the weeds). I remember the 1970s and early 1980s when we thought the simple programmable logic devices (PLDs) … Read More →

AI, Simulation and A New Frontier of Space Applications

by Amelia Dalton

My podcast guest this week is MathWorks Space Segment Manager Ossi Saarela and we are chatting all about the intersection of AI and simulation for space applications! We investigate the challenges that engineers are facing today when it comes to the integration of AI into space systems, how simulation can be used to solve these … Read More →

Rambus’s RAMPART Will Rout Rowhammer

by Max Maxfield

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 … Read More →

Can Isotopically Pure Silicon Chips Switch 1,000X Faster?

by Max Maxfield

I was just introduced to a company that has developed an affordable, clean, efficient way to separate out the isotopes of elements, including silicon and uranium. It was the potential for an isotopically pure form of silicon for use in both regular silicon chips and quantum computers that made my eyes open wide. I’m constantly … Read More →

Adventures with SiTime’s MEMS-based Super-TXCOs – Super Accurate Clocks for the Future – Part 1

by Steven Leibson

Clocks are integral to most electronic systems. Timing and communications systems need extremely accurate clocks. When I started working with electronics, in the heyday of Citizen’s Band (CB) radio, quartz crystals were on sale everywhere, even at Radio Shack. The CB crystals congregated around 27 and 28 MHz, but many more frequencies were on offer. … Read More →

AI is My Copilot: How Flux is Revolutionizing PCB Design

by Amelia Dalton

My podcast guest this week is Mattias Wagner from Flux! Mattias and I investigate the role that AI plays in the Flux PCB design platform. We also delve into the details of the Flux Method, Flux Model and Flux Copilot, and discuss why working smarter not harder is cornerstone to the Flux mission. I also … Read More →

The Freedom to Innovate: Arteris and the Rise of RISC-V

by Amelia Dalton

The adoption of RISC-V is spreading. Versatility and “freedom to innovate” are powering the ecosystem. In this week’s Fish Fry podcast, Frank Schirrmeister from Arteris and I explore how to enable better architecture optimization, manage different protocols with ease, and reduce interconnect area plus power consumption with network-on-chip IP. Also this week, I check out new … Read More →

Before Computers Were Logic Diagrams and Machines

by Max Maxfield

I often think about ancient civilizations. I’m sure you do too. I cogitate and ruminate on all the people who lived, loved, and died, and I’m saddened by the fact that we no longer remember their names. In many cases, we aren’t even aware that their civilizations existed (I base this on the fact we … Read More →
