Coming Back for Seconds

Design West 2012 Part Two

by Amelia Dalton

In this week's Fish Fry, I look into two ever-present themes at this year's Design West Expo: power and software. On the software side, I interview David Kleidermacher (Green Hills Software - CTO) about embedded security, virtualization, and even Green Hills's collaboration with Nintendo. On the power side, I chat with Infinite Power Solutions about energy harvesting and find out why they don't call themselves "Limited Power Solutions".  Read More

Powering Up Power Analysis

Apache addresses power analysis of 3D ICs and sub-20-nm behemoth chips. (8-May)

Getting a Jump on Power Integrity

Power integrity involves an understanding of layout issues, which means you shouldn’t be able to do any analysis until after layout. Apache, however, has proposed a way to do it earlier. (15-Nov)

Power Contributors

Unlike delay, it’s looking like the various contributors to circuit power can be disentangled, simplifying modeling work. (1-Nov)

Wirelessly Going Where No Man Has Gone Before

I would like to use the MachXO2 pico to teach the robotics team that I'm coaching, www.landroids.org, about FPGA. They are well versed in Arduino, the MachXO2 Pico will provide the next step in their training.

Ready, Set, Embed!

Embedded design is the theme of this week's Fish Fry. What do you think about this collaboration between Toyota and Nintendo? A good idea or a really bad one?

I want to use TI MSP-EXP430FR5739 Experimenter Board to design extension project prototype of the current project that I am working on temperature humidity controller for warehouse.

This will be auto temperature and humidity controller for the farms. …

I think, in processor architecture diagnosis, the term is no longer "hyperAptiv" but "Application Deficit Disorder" - it's when you have a great new processor but not many applications run on it yet...
