AI workloads and other advanced computing applications continue to expand, pressuring the development community with the dual challenges of performance and manufacturability. Traditional SoCs are approaching their limits in terms of size, yield, and cost, and one solution lies in chiplet-based architectures. In this episode, we talk to Larry Zu, CEO at Sarcina Technology, and how the company is deploying interconnect to minimize signal crosstalk and enhance signal integrity.

Synaptics is well known for their touch technology, but they do a lot more including their new Astra SL2610 family of system-on-chip (SoC) that incorporates Google’s open source, Coral artificial intelligence (AI) accelerator. Synaptics’ Vikram Gupta talks about the Synaptics' continuing push for edge AI and how that is tied into their other offerings that touch on everything from wireless connectivity to biometrics.

Wide-bandgap semiconductors like silicon carbide (SiC) have changed the landscape of electronics and have fomented a revolution in power conversion. In this podcast, we talk to Adam Barkley, VP, Power Technology Development at Wolfspeed, about the state of the industry in silicon carbide and where the industry is going.

We can simulate everything very exactly, but when it comes to that analog interface between the system and reality, you must be very careful because sometimes things don't behave in the analog realm the way they're predicted to. In this episode, we talk to Dermot O'Shea, CEO of Taoglas, about the state of the cloud and IoT and the challenges in developing products to operate well within it.

Spiking neural networks (SNN), also known as neuromorphic computing, are one way to implement artificial intelligence/machine learning models. It has significant advantages over the more popular digital deep neural networks (DNN) like convolutional neural networks (CNN), including very low power operation.

Innatera’s CEO, Sumeet Kumar, taks about how the company's new, ultra low power microcontroller can provide always-on (AON) SNN support in battery power- or energy harvesting-based applications.

Siemens provides a wide range of design tools for developing hardware and software including ones targeted at software defined vehicles (SDVs). In this episode, David Fritz, Vice President of Hybrid and Virtual Systems at Siemens, talks about SDV and the need for advanced tools and simulation support to meet the safety requirements while providing the functionality of higher SAE levels.

Piezoelectric-based MEMS have been used for sensors, but they can also be used as actuators to do things like move air and fluids. One thing that can be done is to implement a tiny speaker using this technology.

In this episode, xMEMS Labs’ Vice President of Marketing and Business Development, Mike Housholder, talks about his company's device. You can also watch the demos in our video, Making MEMS Move Air and Fluids for Fun and Cooling.

This is the first of a series of Inside Electronic podcasts addressing time sensitive networking (TSN). TSN is a set of IEEE 802.1 standards managed by the TSN Task Group. In this episode, Dave Cavalcanti, Principal Engineer at the Edge Computing Group at Intel and President of Avnu Alliance. He talks about TSN in general as well as important issues like interoperability that this common standard provides.
