Image quality now relies more than ever on high computing power tied to miniaturized optics and sensors, rather than on standalone and bulky but aberration-free optics. 

Imperas Software Ltd and Synopsys, Inc. announced a collaboration to accelerate verification of RISC-V processors utilizing ImperasDV verification platforms, and Synopsys' VCS simulation and Verdi debug tools. The partnership will ease time constraints by streamlining RISC-V verification tasks applying to components supplied by both partners.

On this episode of Embedded Insiders, Brandon is joined by Chairman and CEO of Synopsys, Aart de Geus, to discuss the concept of SysMoore, how it relates to the decline of Moore’s Law, and the impending engineering shortage.

The growth of electronics in cars is exposing a new vector for cyberattacks on owners and automotive companies’ reputations.

Compliance with the ISO 26262 standard is essential for ensuring the safety and reliability of safety-critical automotive systems.

BOSTON, MA. The Consortium for Information & Software Quality (CISQ) issued the Cost of Poor Software Quality in the US: A 2022 Report. In its report, CISQ discovered weak software performance in the US is now costing companies $2.41 trillion, while the technical debt (the cost of reworking suboptimal software) of the accumulated software has risen around $1.52 trillion.

Demand for SoCs with extremely low power consumption remains high, be it for IoT, mobile, HPC, automotive, cryptocurrency, or AI. As the technology scales down further and system complexity increases, SoC designers rely on memories and logic libraries that consume very low power.
