The future of IC design

To celebrate 60 years of EDN, we’re looking into the future to predict what advancements will be made in IC Design in the next 60 years. By 2076 3-D room-temperature, superconducting, quantum, neuromorphic, and photonic mixed-signal devices will be the common denominator for all integrated circuit designs. Design tools will be so sophisticated that even […]

Monolithic terabyte memory IC

Monolithic terabyte memory IC

Crossbar, the RRAM specialist, says it has solved a major obstacle to RRAM’s commercialisation – what Crossbar calls β€˜sneak path current’ which is akin to leakage in CMOS circuits but particularly destructive in RRAMS. This, breakthrough, says a Crossbar press release: β€œSignals Crossbar’s 3D RRAM readiness for commercialisation of Terabyte storage-on-a-chip.” So how far away

LED based time of flight IC for object detection and distance measurement

LED-based time-of-flight IC for object detection and distance measurement

Although Intersil’s ISL29501 time-of-flight (ToF) signal processing IC doesn’t have anything to do with the lighting applications I normally cover, I felt compelled to bring it to your attention because it’s one of the most innovative LED applications I’ve seen this year. The device requires little more than an external emitter (LED or laser) and
