Automotive SoCs scale edge AI to 1200 TOPS
High-performance automotive SoCs, an eight-by-eight 4D imaging radar transceiver, and a 10BASE-T1S Ethernet PHY from Texas Instruments target centralized vehicle computing, advanced perception, and in-vehicle networking. The portfolio includes TDA5 SoCs with scalable edge AI performance from 10 to 1200 TOPS using an integrated neural processing unit and chiplet-ready architecture, supporting sensor fusion and real-time […]
Beyond cryptography, what hardware-level vulnerabilities are a concern in SoCs?
Silicon security has traditionally focused on cryptography, including hardening crypto-accelerators and protecting key storage. In System-on-Chip (SoC) design, this approach is insufficient. An SoC integrates multiple components, such as cores, memory, and third-party IP blocks, onto a single die. This integration introduces hardware-level vulnerabilities that do not target the cryptographic algorithms themselves. Instead, these threats […]
Cards help prototype SoCs with pre-engineered interfaces
S2C Inc., a worldwide leader of FPGA-based prototyping solutions for today’s innovative designs, announced today the addition of 8 new Prototype Ready interface cards and accessories to its extensive library of over 90 pre-engineered hardware and software components aimed at accelerating the development of SoC prototypes. These new modules enable users to prototype SoC designs […]
