What is Wi-Fi HaLow? Players and future
Part 1 focused on HaLow technology; this part will explore who the major players are and discuss the future of the technology. Who are the major HaLow players? A few silicon startups are taking the lead in Wi-Fi HaLow rather than the traditional major chipmakers. They include Morse Micro, Newracom, Methods2Business (an IP provider), and […]
What is Wi-Fi HaLow? Part 1
In the first part of this two-part series, we focus on Wi-Fi HaLow technology. Part two will explore who the major players are and discuss the future of the technology. What is HaLow? In 2017 the wireless networking standard IEEE 802.11ah, also called Wi-Fi HaLow (pronounced “HAY-Low”), was released. HaLow uses the 900 MHz industrial, […]
Resistive RAM handles unclonable cryptographic keys
CrossBar Inc. announced a new application of its Resistive RAM (ReRAM) technology for use as a physical unclonable function (PUF) in order to generate cryptographic keys in secure computing applications. While historically utilized as a non-volatile semiconductor memory, CrossBar’s ReRAM technology is now being introduced for use in hardware security applications utilizing its ReRAM based cryptographic […]
