Cadence announced an inference core that can deliver 12x the performance of an accelerator IP block for deep learning that it launched last year.

Supply challenges are not something that designers typically concern themselves with, but this is one time when they should.

The latest AspenCore Special Project turns the spotlight on the unprecedented shortage of the most ubiquitous components in any electronics design - interconnects, passives and electromechanical devices.

If you’ve started your computing experience in the early eighties, you’ve probably used a ZX Spectrum, Commodore 64, and/or Atari ST home computers. Those products are long gone, except...

It's reasonable to expect that a 5G Apple iPhone will not ship until 2020.

The science and engineering community has been far too focused on the accuracy of AI. Typically, the first question that people ask about AI is, "Can machines beat humans?" But what about fairness?

Ampere, led by former Intel President Renee James, is shipping its first Arm-based server SoC. It's not clear if Ampere represents the industry shake-up sought by James or just a case of windmill-tilting in a server market dominated by Intel.

Data centers are testing the first handful of deep-learning accelerators from startups for running AI jobs.

Hey Karl here. Today we are going to look at something a little different. I am writing about my experiences with building Genmitsu 3018 CNC router upgraded version provided by Sainsmart for this...

RAK Wireless introduced WisLTE Arduino shield last year based on Quectel BG96 module with support for NB-IoT (Cat NB1), eMTC (Cat M1), and 2G fallback as well as GPS location. WisLTE worked globally,...

Macronix founder Miin Wu discussed his plans for a novel architecture that could cut 3D NAND prices by a third in two to three years.

The arrival of microLED in the wearable device market such as Apple Watch in late 2019 is now pushed back by at least two years - to 2021 for high-volume consumer microLED products. What changed? Where is Apple today with...

Trump again ratched up the U.S.-China trade war, levying tariffs on an additional $200 billion worth of imports from China, including parts and materials used in semiconductors and semiconductor manufacturing equipment.

By Eric Brown DFI’s Pico-ITX-based, DIN-rail mountable “EC900-FS6” mini-PC runs Linux or Android on an i.MX6 DualLite, and offers 2x GbE, 2x USB, 2x serial, mini-PCIe, and extensive ruggedization features. A reader recently noted our excessive use of the term...

OpenMV team has launched an upgrade to their popular OpenMV CAM M7 machine vision camera, with OpenMV CAM H7 replacing the STMicro STM32F7 micro-controller by a more powerful STM32H7 MCU clocked at...

By Eric Brown A Cambridge, UK based startup called Foundries.io, which is funded by Linaro and led by former Linaro exec George Grey, has launched a microPlatforms service with managed, subscription-based Linux and Zephyr distributions. The microPlatforms offering will target...
