FPGAs, today and throughout the history of semiconductors, play a critical role in design enablement and electronic systems. Which is why we included the history of FPGAs in our book “Fabless: The Transformation of the Semiconductor Industry” and added a new chapter in the 2019 edition on the history of Achronix. In a recent blog… […]

Based on Nanoscribe’s 3D Microfabrication technology, scientists developed a 3D-microscaffold cochlear implant for steroid elution. For the first time, scientists combined a highly precise, porous 3D printed steroid reservoir with a 2D MEMS-based electrode array to fabricate a novel cochlear implant. This implant is designed to reduce the damage of residual hearing against electrode insertion […]

An important technique for capturing an electronic component’s response to simulated thermal, thermo-mechanical and mechanical loads. The post Using Digital Image Correlation To Determine BGA Warpage appeared first on Semiconductor Engineering.
This week’s show was dedicated to a wrap up of CES 2020. Kevin and I shared how the show has changed in the last 15 years, talked about technology for Boomers, the Withings ScanWatch and ran through several new maker boards. We covered the $2 Wemos W600-PICO board, a new Arduino board for industrial use […]

The automotive industry is facing a downturn in car sales – this is accepted reality. The industry’s difficulties are partly linked to the political tension between China & USA, Brexit and the severe ecological regulations in Europe. These occurrences are global drivers that the automotive industry cannot predict or control but must live through. The […]
