Convention hall to become 5G test location
The Deutsche Messe exhibition site in Hanover, Germany will get a private 5G network for testing products and applications.
A new technique to maximize scan diagnosis throughput
by Jayant D’Souza, product manager Tessent group at Mentor, a Siemens Business Charged with the task of improving yield, product engineers need to find the location of defects in manufactured ICs quickly and efficiently. Typically, they use failing test cycles to perform scan diagnosis, which is then analyzed to reveal the location and root cause […]
Siemens and Qualcomm establish private, standalone 5G network in industrial environment
Siemens and Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. have implemented the first private 5G standalone (SA) network in a real industrial environment using the 3.7-3.8GHz band. Both companies have joined forces in this project: Siemens is providing the actual industrial test conditions and end devices such as Simatic control systems and IO devices and Qualcomm is supplying the…
Validating correct behavior in ADAS and AV systems
Autonomous vehicles must operate in a world of uncertainties. Validation platforms are now capable of determining whether behavior is correct given complex contextual attributes. David Fritz, Mentor, A Siemens Business There is an interesting dashcam video circulating in the autonomous vehicle (AV) development community of a Tesla-paid test driver coming up on what the driver […]
Understanding low-power checks and how to use them
by Aijaz Fatima, Mentor, a Siemens business We live in a shrinking world, and like so much else, the size of ICs is shrinking too. The small size of an IC has many advantages, but it increases the power density of the IC, which leads to many concerns. An IC with a high power density […]
Digital-twin simulation includes auto hardware/software sub-systems, full vehicle models, sensor data, traffic flows and more
Siemens has introduced the PAVE360 pre-silicon autonomous validation environment — a program established to enable and accelerate the development of innovative autonomous vehicle platforms. PAVE360 provides a comprehensive environment for multi-supplier collaboration across the automotive ecosystem for the development of next-generation automotive chips. PAVE360 also extends digital twin simulation beyond processors to include automotive hardware […]
How to structure SystemVerilog for reuse as Portable Stimulus
by Matthew Balance, Mentor, a Siemens Business In our previous article, The Nuts and Bolts of Verification: Recasting SystemVerilog for Portable Stimulus, we described how verification teams can jumpstart portable stimulus test description creation using existing SystemVerilog constructs and principles. Now, switching from analogy to idiom, we’ll dive into the “nuts and bolts” of how […]
