The ACS RTDI (Advanced Cloud Solution RealTime Data Infrastructure) software uses AI to test advanced chips, says Advantest. It uses low-latency edge computing and analytics to monitor complex semiconductor. The algorithms can provide analysis, corrective analysis and prompt actions to improve quality and yield. Advantest said, semiconductor manufacturers can use AI algorithms and data analytics to extract insights from the ...
Heavy rain in the Phoenix and Scottsdale areas of Arizona brought chaos to the roads and Waymo vehicles to a standstill. At the end of September, heavy rainstorms, accompanied by lighting and hail meant several rainfall in a short period of time. The city’s Waymo vehicles, used to driving in the warm, dry climate of the desert region, did not ...
At Microelectronics UK, Embedd.it unveiled its cross-vendor graphical MCU configurator. The company said that it will “remove hardware dependencies in embedded software” and strengthen supply chain resilience. The configurator uses AI to retrieve and organise data on more than 1,400 MCU families from major manufacturers, including Renesas, STMicroelectronics, NXP Semiconductors and Texas Instruments. The configurator is part of a suite ...
A scalable Linux tool launched by Peridio is an open-source OS designed to migrate designs from protoype to production. Justin Schneck, co-founder and chief product officer of Peridio, explained that embedded developers’ either have to choose a packaged Linux distribution which can work immediately but which is difficult to scale and secure in volume production, or build their own security-hardened, ...

Rust applications can be Autosar software components on TC4x automotive microcontrollers, allowing Rust to run alongside C and C++, following a cooperation between HighTec EDV-Systeme, Elektrobit and Infineon. The three companies have created a development software bundle called ‘Drive Core Autosar (Rust)’, which includes: A version of Elektrobit’s Tresos Studio, including Tresos AutoCore Autosar-compliant basic software for automotive ECUs (control ...
Synopsys has completed the acquisition of Ansys. The $35bn deal brings Ansys’ predictive simulation and analysis tools into the Synopsys family for design tools using AI. “The increasing complexity of developing intelligent systems demands design solutions with a deeper integration of electronics and physics, enhanced by AI,” said Sassine Ghazi, president and CEO of Synopsys (pictured). “Today marks a transformational ...
There is a general consensus and belief that chiplets are the future, said Abhijeet Chakraborty, VP engineering, Synopsys. There are, however, no illusions about some of the challenges or obstacles that have to be addressed, he added. The first of these is interoperability and standards. Access to chiplets is essential to design any complex, large system, Chakraborty told Electronics Weekly ...
