If so, I’m sure you’ll agree that it’s hard to beat the author’s own description of this tale … Read More → "Making Machine Vision Accessible and Affordable for Engineers, Educators, and Makers"
We are talking about one of my all time favorite topics this week: Space! My podcast guest is Kenneth O’Neill from AMD and we are talking all about the implementation of AI applications in space and how artificial intelligence is changing the landscape of space missions. We also chat about AMD’s Versal XQR devices and how these devices reflect a big leap forward in … Read More → "Autonomous Decisions and Remote Sensing: How We Can Use AI to Improve Space Flight Systems"
The phrase “wake up and smell the coffee” is an idiom that means: “Pay attention to what’s really going on.” It’s not that this is in any way relevant to the following discussions: I was just wondering where and how this expression originated.
Now I come to think about it, this query was sparked by my hearing the news that the … Read More → "Celebrating the FPGA’s 40th Birthday"

One of the topics that’s currently at the forefront of my consciousness (and quite possibly my unconsciousness, for all I know) is that of retro electronic toys.
Perhaps I shouldn’t be … Read More → "Living in a Cubic World"
My special guests this week are Angelo Dragone and Paul McIntyre from the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. Angelo, Paul and I chat about the mission of the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and how SLAC is advancing the development of next generation microelectronics. We also chat about the details of their new Microelectronics Energy Efficiency Research Center for Advanced Technologies (MEERCAT) and why the reduction of power consumption and the … Read More → "How SLAC is Advancing the Next Generation of Microelectronics"
Things are moving at breakneck speed in artificial intelligence (AI) space (where no one can hear you scream). For example, I’ve just been introduced to Sophie the Sage, who is the AI co-host of a video podcast.
Now, you may think “Sophie the Sage” is a strange sobriquet, but my own online moniker is “Max the Magnificent,” so I’m in no … Read More → "Is This the First Video Podcast with an AI Co-Host?"
 Shift Left with Calibre Pattern Matching: Trust in design practices but verify early and frequentlySponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software As integrated circuit (IC) designs become increasingly complex, early-stage verification is crucial to ensure productivity and quality in design processes. The "shift left" verification approach, enabled by Siemens’ Calibre nmPlatform, helps IC design teams to identify and resolve critical issues much earlier in the design cycle. |
