Can GPUs Continue To Dominate AI Compute?
4+ day, 23+ hour ago (1623+ words) Google, Amazon, and now OpenAI have competitive offerings and are gaining share. GPUs are 70% of installed worldwide AI compute capacity by manufacturer (see figure 1), with custom silicon accounting for 30%, primarily Google and Amazon. Fig. 1: Current installed worldwide AI compute capacity…...
Humanoid Compute, Security More Complex Than AVs
1+ week, 3+ day ago (553+ words) Robots and autonomous vehicles are both edge devices, but a humanoid has wheels as well as fingers. Close interaction with humans raises the stakes. The market for robots and humanoids is growing rapidly for industrial applications, but it’s poised for…...
When Edge AI Lies: Fault Injection and False State in Live Perception Pipelines
1+ week, 4+ day ago (226+ words) In edge AI, the most dangerous failure may not be a system that stops working, but one that continues operating while quietly accepting the wrong version of reality. The post When Edge AI Lies: Fault Injection and False State in…...
EBook - Accelerate Silicon Design for Physical AI (Part 1)
1+ week, 4+ day ago (96+ words) A complete path from AI model, to trusted silicon, to deployable system. Physical AI demands more than traditional edge silicon. Devices must perceive, reason, and act in real time while protecting data and scaling across product lines. This eBook shows…...
Extending 18A With Significant Power And Performance Gains
1+ week, 4+ day ago (239+ words) Compared to Intel 18A, the new architecture lowers external resistance by approximately 20% for NMOS devices and 12% for PMOS devices, enabling higher drive current and higher operating frequencies at matched capacitance.² As a result, Power Boost helps designers extract more performance from…...
Advancing The CFET-Based Device Roadmap: Novel Integration Modules And Standard Cell Configurations
1+ week, 5+ day ago (815+ words) Part I – Pioneering work in developing CFET-critical modules: an improved backside contact module and a novel gate stack for threshold voltage tuning. By Cassie Sheng, Hiroaki Arimura, and Naoto Horiguchi The semiconductor industry is going through a major architectural transition,…...
Photonics Forces A Chiplet Rethink
1+ week, 6+ day ago (294+ words) Thermal drift, stress, electromagnetic coupling, and verification gaps are turning optical integration into a full-system co-design problem rather than a plug-in bandwidth upgrade. “The hardest issues are the ones at the system level,” Lamant noted. “It’s not magic. It’s just…...
Cycle-Level Simulator for Distributed GPUs For AI Workloads (Purdue)
2+ week, 23+ hour ago (180+ words) Researchers from Purdue University published a technical paper titled “Architecting the Next Generation of Asynchronous, Distributed GPUs for the AI Era.” Abstract Excerpt: The paper presents a “cycle-level simulation framework” for modern GPU generations including Ampere, Hopper, and Blackwell. It…...
M3D 6T SRAM With BEOL Pass-Gates at 2nm (Georgia Tech, Synopsys)
2+ week, 23+ hour ago (207+ words) Researchers from Georgia Institute of Technology and Synopsys published a technical paper titled “A Process-Aware Hybrid Si/IGO Monolithic-3D 6T SRAM with BEOL Pass-Gates for the 2nm Node.” Abstract Excerpt: The paper proposes “a monolithic-3D (M3D) 6T SRAM at the 2nm node” that integrates BEOL…...
