SEGGER has announced added support for the RV32E embedded processor core to its RISC-V floating-point library, which currently supports RV32I.According to SEGGER this new library will lead to a significant reduction in code size for RISC-V applications using floating point.With all arithmetic functions hand-coded in assembly language, the m...

Detection Technology, a global leader in X-ray detector solutions, today unveiled the industry’s first off-the-shelf detector subsystem for security CT (computed tomography) applications. The plug-and-play-type subsystem, branded as Aurora CT, includes ready-made, multislice detector boards and a data acquisition system (DAS). Aurora CT speed...

Detection Technology, a global leader in X-ray detector solutions, today rolled out the X-Scan C series to trim down time-to-market and total costs of industrial X-ray imaging systems. The X-Scan C is a product family of robust and reliable X-ray line cameras. The series is a perfect fit for the quality control, sorting, and grading of various good...

As technology evolves, and demand increases for next generation chips in artificial intelligence, deep learning, machine learning, automotive, IOT, healthcare and other areas, technology to provide faster, higher density and lower power ATE (Automatic Test Equipment) semiconductors is required.At ElevATE, the goal is to provide our customers wi...

McMaster researchers, working with partners at other universities, have created a motion-powered, fireproof sensor that can track the movements of firefighters, steelworkers, miners and others who work in high-risk environments where they cannot always be seen.The low-cost sensor is about the size of a button-cell watch battery and can be incor...

MIT researchers have developed a novel cryptography circuit that can be used to protect low-power IoT devices in the coming age of quantum computing.Bringing quantum computers online and to market could one day enable advances in areas such as medical research, but if hackers get access, they could potentially break through the powerful encrypt...

A team from the University of Cambridge has developed an inkjet-printed transistor, which is sensitive enough to accurately detect electrophysiological signals from the skin when used in conjunction with a wearable device.In the virtual environment, for example, the tracking of subtle eye movements by electro-oculography is needed for a better,...

Cadence Design Systems has unveiled the industry’s first silicon-proven, long-reach 112G SerDes IP in 7nm.According to Cadence the IP delivers the power, performance and area (PPA) efficiency required to build high-port density networking products for next-generation cloud-scale and telco datacentres.Cadence has been working closely w...

UltraSoC and ResilTech have announced a collaboration that brings together their expertise and technologies to help further the functional safety compliance of automotive systems, focusing particularly on the ISO26262 standard.UltraSoC’s embedded analytics technology provides a powerful platform for developers who need to verify and valid...

Qualcomm has extended its QTM052 mmWave antenna module family of fully-integrated 5G NR millimetre wave (mmWave) modules for smartphones and other mobile devices with its smallest additions yet.Compared with the first set of modules announced in July 2018, the latest mmWave antenna modules are 25 percent smaller and engineered to enable mobile...
