Embedded Computing Design

We’re in the era of quantum computing. That brings with it a lot of great things. But at the same time, it brings some not so good things. Once again, we’re in a race to stay ahead of the bad guys to keep our systems secure. 

Folks like the experts at Infineon are doing what they can to do just that. And the best part is that they are trying to insulate their customers from having to deal with all the different measures that must be put in place. 

Hear from Erik Wood, Infineon’s Senior Director of Microcontroller Cryptography and Product Security, to see if this sounds like a fit for your design. Check out this week’s Embedded Executives podcast to learn more.

In this episode of Embedded Insiders, Contributing Editor Rich Nass chats with Earle Foster, Senior Vice President of Sales at Sealevel Systems, about how to build embedded systems without starting from scratch. They explore when to rely on fully custom and off-the-shelf components, and where semi-custom solutions are most suitable.

Later, Ken talks with Soracom Co-Founder and CTO Kenta Yasukawa about the company’s latest GenAI developments, with a brief mention of our upcoming AI at the Edge Day.

But first, Ken and I break down the latest news on NVIDIA’s H20 chip and developing export regulations around advanced AI chips.

The boom coming from AI is requiring data centers to be built as fast as we can build them. To that end, there is a lot of discussion about the power that’s needed to drive these data centers. What there’s not a lot of discussion about are the interconnects that are used within these power-hungry computing camps. And that’s the specialty of Point2 Technology, a fairly new company that boasts ultra-low power interconnect solutions. 

To understand how the company’s technology works, I spoke to Sean Park, Point2’s President, CEO, and Founder, on this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.

Hello Embedded Engineers, Developers and Makers! Welcome to In Case You Missed it: Embedded Insights, the weekly news show all about Embedded technologies and solutions from Embedded Computing Design.

TSMC recently announced its exit from the GaN space. Well, maybe “announced” is the wrong word, but they did let customers know that they will not be producing GaN devices going forward. 

Details are still coming out, so we don’t know exactly when that stoppage will occur. So what does that mean for TSMC partners who relied on them to produce their products? 

To understand what that means, I spoke to Johannes Schoiswohl, the Senior Vice President and General Manager of Infineon’s GaN Business Line. Infineon may have an easier time than others making this transition, but it’s an interesting time nonetheless. Check out this week’s Embedded Executives podcast to learn more.

Sealevel Systems has an expertise in building systems for rugged, harsh environments, and the ability to achieve long life. Earle Foster explains that it detail.

It's been almost a year since Synaptics launched its Astra architecture. Hear what's happened to the AI platform since that time.

Having multiple media on the same device simplifies a design and reduces costs. That's exactly what Synaptics has been able to achieve with it's latest combo wireless IC.
