Enabling advanced ICs with multiple patterning
Advanced patterning techniques overlay multiple patterns of larger dimensions to achieve smaller and/or more tightly packed features.
56G SerDes PHY keeps up with faster networks
The move from 4G to 5G is driving new architectures such as C-RAN, which further pushes SerDes requirements to communicate…
Powering up wearable devices
Converting kinetic energy and heat flux are possible electrical energy sources for users to supply power to their wearable devices.
How power tech fuels wearables’ growth
Designers of wearable devices can optimise energy savings using DC-DC and/or multi-rail DC/DC converters for extended battery life.
Tools ease timing closure in FPGA design
FPGA design tools help automate the process for designers, making it easier and faster while also helping to remove import…
Wired supply: The basics of magnetic components
Magnetics are passive components that use an internal magnetic field to change the phase of electrical current. They are commonly…
How transformers work: An overview
Transformers do not generate electrical power. They transfer electrical power from one AC circuit to another using magnetic coupling.
Solve traffic sign recognition challenges
An unnoticed sign board can cause fatal accidents, but how many times do we miss the traffic signs during a…
How to fool a traffic sign recognition system
Traffic signs have country specific standards with defined shapes and specific combination of colours. Despite that, there are 'N' number…
Fix motion blur, occlusions for traffic sign recognition
A restoration algorithm prior to detection is needed to correct for the weakening of the sharp edges of the sign…
