The support or use of AI (artificial intelligence) in electronics, including ML (machine learning), whether in software (supervised, unsupervised or reinforcement learning tools) or hardware (accelerators, GPUs, etc).
Arm has launched Lumex – the first of its new Compute Sub-Systems (CSS) system-level platforms to be targeted at the mobile market. The premise of Lumex is that AI is the primary workload for mobile and economics dictates that inference will be done at the edge. “AI is no longer a feature, it’s the foundation of next-generation mobile and consumer ...
Nvidia has brought out the Rubin CPX GPU, a specialised accelerator specifically made for massive-context AI models. The chip delivers 30 PetaFLOPS of NVFP4 compute performance on a monolithic die with 128 GB of GDDR7 memory. The device is designed to process disaggregated inference – the two distinct phases of inference consisting of the context phase and the generation phase. ...
Powered by Nvidia’s Blackwell GPU, the Jetson AGX Thor offers 7.5x more AI compute and 3.5x greater energy efficiency than its predecessor, Jetson Orin. The development kit is designed for robotic applications in multiple industries from logistics to retail and agriculture to surgical assistance. The compact system-on-module supports many generative AI models including all major LLMs and VLMs and Nvidia’s ...
The Turing Institute is dysfunctional, report the Times and the BBC, hit by infighting, politics and a toxic culture. “The problems are deep-seated going back to the foundation,” Neil Lawrence, professor of machine learning at Cambridge University, told the Times, “if you create an institute that has a lot of money and spends that money on itself and a club ...
An MCU and two fusion processors make up the second generation of microcontrollers developed by Alif Semiconductor. The Ensemble E4, E6 and E8 use a common fabric. The Ensemble E4 (MCU) uses the Arm dual Cortex-55 core and the Ensemble E6 and E8 fusion processors are based on the Arm Cortex-32 core and dual Cortex-32 cores respectively. Alif said it ...
Two new open-weight AI reasoning models developed by OpenAI and Nvidia — gpt-oss-120b and gpt-oss-20b — are available to users. Anyone can use the models to develop applications in generative, reasoning and physical AI, healthcare and manufacturing. OpenAI’s open-weight text-reasoning large language models (LLMs) were trained on Nvidia H100 GPUs and run inference best on the hundreds of millions of GPUs running the Nvidia CUDA ...
Ansys has released its latest toolsuite, 2025 R2, which has many products with AI+, together with a virtual AI assistant and enhanced data management and workflow automation. The 2025 R2 suite includes the Engineering Copilot (pictured) in existing products (AnsysGPT, powered by Azure OpenAI, Ansys Mechanical, Discovery, Fluent, HFSS, Electronics Desktop (AEDT), Scade One, Speos, Maxwell, optiSLang and Lumerical). In ...
The European electronic components distribution market is suffering from a declining automotive sector, reports DMASS Europe. The electronic components distribution industry body represents approximately 85% of the European components DTAM. DMASS said that European semiconductor distribution sales in Q2 2025 fell 14% compared to Q2 2024. Austria experiencing the steepest drop (36.6%) followed by France (20%), Germany and Ireland both ...
Hailo, the Israeli edge AI processor developer, has the Hailo-10H, its second-generation AI accelerator claimed to be the first market-available and orderable discrete AI processor with native support for generative AI workloads at the edge. The chip can run LLMs, vision-language models (VLMs), and other generative AI models entirely on-device, without relying on cloud connectivity, bringing generative AI to edge ...
Don’t miss episode 12 of CHIIPS, an interview with EdgeCortix’s Dr Sakya Dasgupta discussing neural computation, and AI at the edge. Edge AI The Electronics Weekly podcast is brought to you by our editor Caroline Hayes. And Dr Sakya Dasgupta is a tech entrepreneur who is championing bridging the power-efficient neural processing with hardware-software co-design. He talks about DNA IP ...
