Sensors on the Brain and FinFETs in the Game

Fish Fry is headed to the Land of Next this week – the next process nodes, the next big breakthrough in brain sensor technology, and the next Kickstarter investment you should consider. My guest is Wilbur Luo (Cadence) and we’re talking 16, 14, and 10nm, what’s in store for these next process nodes, and how the design challenges associated with FinFETs are going to keep us on our toes.

Also this week, I’ve got a brand new nerdy giveaway – the Microchip TCHIP003 chipKIT™ Starter Pak – courtesy of Mouser and Microchip Technology. You can enter to win one for your own by posting a comment on this week’s Fish Fry page.

Quantized Neural Networks for FPGA Inference

Sponsored by Intel

Implementing a low precision network in FPGA hardware for efficient inferencing provides numerous advantages when it comes to meeting demanding specifications. The increased flexibility allows optimization of throughput, overall power consumption, resource usage, device size, TOPs/watt, and deterministic latency. These are important benefits where scaling and efficiency are inherent requirements of the application.

MEG-Array and M Series
Sponsored by Mouser Electronics and Amphenol
In this episode of Chalk Talk, Jeremy Ellis from Amphenol Communications Solutions and Amelia Dalton chat about the benefits of Amphenol’s MEG-Array and M-Series connector solutions. They also investigate the tooling configurations available for these solutions and how Amphenol’s ball and socket BGA interface can simplify board routing, eliminate press-fit constraints on via and provide excellent SI performance.
