Engineers make many tradeoffs when designing SoC’s to better meet design specifications. Power, Performance and Area (PPA) are the primary goals and all three impact the cost of the implementation.

As VLSI technology scales to 90 nanometers and beyond, ASIC vendors increasingly see power grid integrity issues in their designs and in the field, for two primary reasons. First, deep-submicron ...

Electrical snafus are among the most annoying problems with older cars. Unlike tires or bodywork, there's something about electrical systems that seems to baffle many car crafters. We could blame it ...

Semiconductor junctions — from the millions of transistors used in ICs to the large-area compound junctions that make high-brightness LEDs possible — can all suffer early failure due to increased heat ...
