This month marks the 50th anniversary of Moore's Law, an observation that every couple of years, computer chip manufacturers manage to squeeze twice as many transistors onto a computer chip. Moore’s Law embodies the exponential increase in raw computing power that unleashed a blizzard of tech innovations.
Cascade Microtech, Inc. is introducing a new Multipurpose Electromigration (MPEM) module featuring an intuitive, full-featured test suite for predicting the lifetime and reliability of copper interconnects in modern integrated circuits. Cascade Microtech's new MPEM module offers researchers a broadly capable tool with multiple electromigration (EM) test applications in one convenient, low-cost, high-performance system.
VTT has developed a method for printing memory circuits directly, e.g. onto consumer packaging. Because the required production technology is quite simple, no major investments are required.
A group of scientists at Chalmers University of Technology has performed an experiment which showed that large area graphene can effectively maintain the electron spin for a long period of time and at the same time it also communicates the spin over longer distances than has been feasible until now.
Seong Jin Koh, an associate professor in the Materials Science & Engineering Department at the University of Texas at Arlington, has been awarded a $300,000 grant by the National Science Foundation to build nanoscale pillars that may lead to development of more energy-efficient transistors for applications in electronic gadgets and devices.
Xilinx, Inc. today announced that its Virtex® UltraScale™ 20nm FPGA is enabling the JDSU ONT 400G Ethernet test platform. This new platform delivers 400G bandwidth and ensures precise analysis on a true packet-to-packet basis to support the needs and complexity of advanced 400G applications.
Synopsys, Inc. today announced the availability of a broad portfolio of DesignWare® PHY IP for TSMC's 16-nanometer (nm) FinFET Plus (16FF+) processes, enabling designers to integrate required functionality in mobile and enterprise system-on-chips (SoCs) with less risk.
The exceptional properties of tiny molecular cylinders known as carbon nanotubes have tantalized researchers for years because of the possibility they could serve as a successors to silicon in laying the logic for smaller, faster and cheaper electronic devices.
PLDA, the industry leader in PCI Express® controller IP solutions has partnered with GUC, the Flexible ASIC Leader™, to create the fully-integrated complete PCIe Gen 4 solution for TSMC’s 16nm FinFET Plus (16FF+) process. The new PCIe Gen 4 IP can be licensed immediately by system-on-a-chip (SoC) and system companies, enabling solutions that satisfy the throughput, latency and power demands of PCIe 4.0 applications.
Researchers are always searching for improved technologies, but the most efficient computer possible already exists. It can learn and adapt without needing to be programmed or updated. It has nearly limitless memory, is difficult to crash, and works at extremely fast speeds. It’s not a Mac or a PC; it’s the human brain. And scientists around the world want to mimic its abilities.
