Accellera Systems Initiative (Accellera) announced today that Janick Bergeron, a member of the Verification Intellectual Property (VIP) Technical Subcommittee (TSC), is the recipient of the second annual Accellera Technical Excellence Award.
Soitec (Euronext), a world leader in generating and manufacturing revolutionary semiconductor materials for the electronics and energy industries, and Sumitomo Electric Industries, Ltd., a leading worldwide provider of compound semiconductor materials, have signed a licensing and technology-transfer agreement under which Sumitomo Electric will use Soitec's proprietary Smart Cut™ technology to manufacture engineered gallium nitride (GaN) substrates.
Toshiba Corporation (TOKYO:6502) today announced the development of an innovative low-power technology for embedded SRAM for application in smart phones and other mobile products.
Luis Hueso, the CICnanoGUNE researcher, together with researchers from the University of Cambridge, among others, has developed a new technology in the magnetic cooling of chips based on the straining of materials.
At this week’s International Solid State Circuits Conference (ISSCC 2013), imec and Holst Centre presented an ultra-low power processor that operates reliably at near-threshold voltages. The processor delivers clock speeds up to 1MHz at voltages down to 0.4 V. In tests based on a Fast Fourier Transform use case, it consumed only 79 µW – a fraction of the power consumption at standard voltages.
Renesas Electronics America, a premier supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, today announced that the RH850/F1x Series of 32-bit microcontrollers (MCUs) was selected as the Automotive Electronics winner of Design News’ prestigious Golden Mousetrap Awards. Renesas Electronics’ Smart Analog Platform was also recognized as a finalist in the Automation & Control category.
Kilopass Technology Inc., a leading provider of semiconductor logic non-volatile memory (NVM) intellectual property (IP), announced today that Frost & Sullivan, a leading provider of growth strategy consulting and market research, awarded Kilopass the Kilopass Frost & Sullivan NVM Innovator Award. The award recognizes Kilopass Virtual Crosspoint Memory (VCM) for increasing the bit density of NVM in a standard logic CMOS process by four fold. At less than half the cost of embedded or external flash with die area similar to SRAM and the flexibility of field programmability, a number of applications will benefit from VCM, from microcontrollers to touch display drivers.
Imec demonstrated a low-power (20µW), intra-cardiac signal processing chip for the detection of ventricular fibrillation at this weekfs International Solid State Circuits Conference (ISSCC 2013) in San Francisco with Olympus. An important step toward next-generation Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy solutions, the new chip delivers innovative signal processing functionalities and consumes only 20µW when all channels are active, enabling the miniaturization of implantable devices.
Mentor Graphics Corporation today announced that NXP Semiconductors has become part of the Mentor® Embedded Nucleus® Innovate Program. Participants in the Nucleus Innovate program now have access to board support packages for NXP Semiconductor microcontroller devices.
SEMATECH today announced that Cabot Microelectronics Corporation, the world’s leading supplier of chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) polishing slurries and a growing CMP pad supplier to the semiconductor industry, has joined its Front End Processes (FEP) program and will collaborate with SEMATECH to develop advanced solutions for emerging CMP applications.
