Industry’s first RISC-V SoC FPGA Architecture brings real-time to Linux
In a new era of computing driven by the convergence of 5G, machine learning and the internet of things (IoT), embedded developers need the richness of Linux-based operating systems. These must meet deterministic system requirements in ever lower power, thermally constrained design environments—all while addressing critical security and reliability requirements. Traditional system-on-chip (SoC) field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) blending...

Rohde & Schwarz and Huawei conduct field trial precision latency measurements for 5G cellular V2X communication
One of the key use cases of 5G is ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC). Important for advanced vehicle-to-X communication use cases, URLLC will enable automated driving in the future. In a joint project between Huawei and Rohde & Schwarz, a precision end-to-end delay measurement system for over-the-air IP transmissions was applied to 5G V2X communication for cooperative driving applications in...
3D CMOS Sequential Integration Closer to Commercialization
Leti, a research institute at CEA Tech, has reported breakthroughs in six 3D-sequential-integration process steps that previously were considered showstoppers in terms of manufacturability, reliability, performance or cost.
CoolCube, CEA-Leti’s 3D monolithic or 3D sequential CMOS technology allows vertically stacking several layers of devices with a unique connecting-via density above tens of million/mm2. This MoreMoore technology decreases dice area by a...

Exoskeletons Present Mobility Solutions Using an Array of Sensors
Although most of us have never seen an exoskeleton beyond those in pop culture, they’ve been around for decades. The first examples appeared at the end of the 19th century when a running and jumping apparatus was developed using pneumatics for power. In the 1960s, companies developed wearable “augmentation” devices aimed at military and industrial uses, but these devices...
