Nyobolt averting a funding crisis, Philips selling its Xiver MEMS unit, Samsung re-designing its HBM chips, IBM and Global foundries settling their dispute, and TI's in-cabin radar IC for vehicles...
GlobalFoundries and IBM have settled their lawsuit over IP and say they are looking at ways to co-operate in the future. The case, which has been going on since April 2023, arose from IBM’s transfer of its semiconductor unit to GloFo in 2015 and IBM’s subsequent transfer of technology to Rapidus and Intel. IBM’s deal with Rapidus was to build ...
Semiconductor photomask supplier, Toppan Photomask will change its name to Tekscend Photomask, from 01 November. The new name is a combination of technology and ascend, said the company’s press release, a sign, it says, of its commitment to develop its technical capabilities and to grow as a photomask provider. The company’s new logo depicts a photomask over a semiconductor wafer. ...

IBM has debuted ‘IBM Quantum Heron,’ the first in a new series of utility-scale quantum processors with an architecture engineered over the past four years to deliver IBM’s highest performance metrics and lowest error rates of any IBM Quantum processor to date. IBM also unveiled IBM Quantum System Two, the company’s first modular quantum computer and cornerstone of IBM’s quantum-centric ...
IBM has revealed an analogue in-memory IC for implementing neural networks. The device stores weights locally as analogue levels as conductance in phase-change memory, and implements analogue multiply-accumulate calculation. For analogue AI processing “two key challenges need to be overcome: These memory arrays need to compute with precision on par with existing digital systems, and they need to be able ...
