There are many things I’ve not really thought about before. I don’t like to boast (I pride myself on my humility), but I bet I’ve not thought about more things than most people. One reason I say this is that I keep on being introduced to new things I’ve never even considered.
Take the power supply … Read More → "From Power Supply Block Diagram to Completed Design in 60 Seconds!"
I wish I were going to attend the forthcoming IEEE Applied Power Electronics Conference and Exposition, which is scheduled to take place next week as I pen these words. There’s a buzz building around this year’s event like “I know not wot,” as it were.
APEC 2025 will be taking place March 16 … Read More → "Need 3,000A to Power Your Next-Gen XPU?"
I want you to put your “imagining hat” on. If you don’t own an “imagining hat,” you’ll just have to imagine that you have one proudly perched on the top of your head. Let’s start by imagining an accelerator card whose core processing device demands 2,000 amps (my eyes are already watering).
Now imagine multiple accelerator cards on a motherboard in … Read More → "Next-Generation Power Technology for Data Center Accelerator Cards"
Documentation is one of those things that people love or loathe. The people who create it typically loathe doing so. The people who use it can go either way depending on how well it’s written.
I was talking to a friend just a few minutes before I commenced this column. We will call my friend Joe (because that’s his name). Joe … Read More → "AI-Powered Documentation Generator and Understander"
I am happy to welcome Brandon Bourn from Zenode to my podcast this week! Brandon and I discuss how monotonous repetitive tasks and hardware design pain points motivated the creation of the Zenode platform, how large language models can be utilized to solve these issues and how Zenode is looking to revolutionize hardware design with their new electronic component search engine. Also this week, I check out a new … Read More → "Copilot AI: A Revolution in Hardware Design with Zenode"
Thus far, if the truth be told, I’ve had mixed experiences with large language models (LLMs) and generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) as personified by ChatGPT. I started, as many people do, by asking ChatGPT questions about things I knew nothing about, receiving responses that appeared to be reasonably impressive.
The reason for my emphasizing the word “appeared” in the previous … Read More → "From Thought to Circuit in Record Time with AI"
