Stacked dies to connect with test equipment
It has been announced by imec that the IEEE Std 1838TM-2019, recently approved by the IEEE Standards Association, will be included in IEEE Xplore Digital Library from February 2020 onward. The new standard allows die makers to design dies which, if compliant to this standard, constitute, once stacked in a 3D-IC by a stack integrator, a consistent stack-level test access architecture.
Low power memory compiler programme opened for 30 days
SureCore is opening its low power memory compiler for 30 days to qualifying companies to evaluate the capabilities of its PowerMiser and EverOn standard SRAM IP products on low power metrics. The new service will prove particularly useful for constraint and compute intensive SoC designs.
IoT, AR feature in Digi-Key demos at embedded world
Digi-Key Electronics is ready to roll into embedded world 2020 in Nuremberg (February 25-27) with a comprehensive menu of interactive technical demonstrations, traditional games and giveaways. The company is also an official sponsor of Student Day on February 27, when 1,000 final-year engineering students from around the world gather to meet potential employers.
Analogue mixed-signal tools for analog IC designs
Mentor has announced that its Tanner analog/mixed-signal (AMS) design tools – the Tanner S-Edit schematic capture tool and the Tanner L-Edit layout editor – are now certified for TSMC’s interoperable PDKs (iPDKs) for a broad range of TSMC specialty process technologies for high-volume analog IC designs.
Cadence pays $160m to buy AWR from National Instruments
Cadence Design Systems is buying RF EDA software specialist AWR from National Instruments (NI) for $160m. The acquisition is the latest building block in Cadence’s Intelligent System Design strategy which helps engineers deal with major design and implementation decisions from system to silicon.
Enabling Arm architecture support for Questa simulation tools
Mentor has announced it is working closely with Arm to leverage their own 64-bit Arm Neoverse-based server platform to run electronic design automation (EDA) software for the design of next-generation Arm-based processors. As part of this effort, Mentor is also announcing availability of its Questa simulation tools optimised to run on the platform, either in cloud-based environments or as part of an on-premise parallel regression grid.
Digi-Key, ADI measurement platform kickstarts designs
Digi-Key has forged a partnership with Analog Devices to offer its new MeasureWare platform. This will allow Digi-Key customers to kickstart designs by providing immediate access to availability and pricing of qualifying products.
EuMW 2019: Wizard ready to perform VNA magic in Paris
Ready to be unveiled at European Microwave Week in Paris (October 1-3), Pico Technology has unveiled a new PicoVNA Interface Wizard, which adds significant functionality and value to the company’s low-cost, high-performance vector network analyser (VNA).
Co-simulation solution meets electrical-thermal challenges
The system analysis and design market has a new solution with the introduction of the Cadence CelsiusThermal Solver, a complete electrical-thermal co-simulation solution for the full hierarchy of electronic systems from ICs to physical enclosures. Following the launch of the Clarity 3D Solver earlier this year, the Celsius Thermal Solver is the second innovative product in Cadence’s new system analysis initiative.
Second electronic warfare course for European Defence Agency
After two weeks of demanding training, the second iteration of an Inzpire-led electronic warfare course which is organised under the umbrella of the Helicopter Exercise Programme for the European Defence Agency has been successfully delivered at RAF Linton-on-Ouse.There were 20 trainees from Austria, Belgium, the Czech Republic, Finland, Slovenia, Sweden and the UK that completed the course. The majority of students were rotary aircrew, however a...
