New chipmaking systems boost the energy-efficient performance of Gate-All-Around transistors and wiring at 2nm and beyondViva™ pure radical ...

Almost every chip being taped out today is mixed-signal in nature. In addition to increased integration of analog and RF blocks, designers are using complex power-management techniques to minimize ...

Nothing is worse for a design team than a chip that fails to work in the bringup lab. Electrical problems are historically a major cause of such failures. Power leaks, power-ground DC paths, missing ...

Curious about how to precisely determine the optimal voltage-regulator setpoints for your System-on-Chip (SoC)? In this video, we dive into how transistor-level Power Delivery Network (PDN) telemetry ...

This year, several companies are expected to bring 600/650 V Gallium Nitride (GaN) power transistors to market. Almost all will be normally-on (depletion mode) transistors connected in a cascode ...

Control of heat flow is crucial for thermal logic devices and thermal management, with theoretical exploration preceding limited experimental progress in actively controlling heat flow. The device ...

What is a Single-Electron Transistor? A single-electron transistor (SET) is a nanoscale electronic device that allows the precise control of individual electrons. Unlike conventional transistors that ...

Advances in materials and architecture could lead to silicon-free chip manufacturing thanks to a new type of transistor.

This is the third installment in our CPU design series. In Part 1, we covered computer architecture and how a processor works at a high level. Part 2 explored the design and implementation of ...
