  • Value Shifts In The Semiconductor Supply Chain

    System-Level Design discusses where the money has shifted in the semiconductor supply chain with Synopsys, eSilicon, TSMC and Avago.

  • Challenges At 32nm And Beyond

    Wally Rhines, chairman and CEO of Mentor Graphics, talks about what's changing in design, the effect of low power, and who's going to be doing the most advanced designs.

  • Tesla: The Ultimate Low-Power Design

    When your battery pack alone costs $30,000 and you get 200 miles per charge, you've got to be looking for ways to save power. The Tesla roadster is crammed with parts from many Silicon Valley companies, all designed to draw as little power as possible. But there's still much more work to be done.

  • Artificial Intelligence: This Time It's For Real

    AI used to be the stuff of science fiction, but cheap processing power and storage has made it a reality. To find out what's being developed, System-Level Design (www.chipdesignmag.com/sld) tracked down Rachel Goshorn, assistant professor of System Engineering at the Graduate School of Engineering and Applied Science in the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, Calif. Check out what she has to say.

  • New Memory Technology Ahead

    Christophe Chevallier, vice president of engineering at Unity Semiconductor, sat down with System-Level Design Contributing Editor Pallab Chatterjee to talk about multilayer technology that could boost chips to more than a terabyte using standard CMOS processes.

  • Saving Power By The Milliwatt

    Power budgets may look small, but the amount of power that can be saved with different design approaches will surprise you.

  • What Goes Wrong

    The best way to figure out where the problems are with products is to check with customer service. They hear everything. So System-Level Design sat down with Tom Flodeen, VP of customer service at Mentor Graphics to see where customers are asking questions. Yeah, we know there's a little marketing in this, but it's worth wading through to listen to what's going on behind the scenes.
