Power: a significant challenge in EDA design

... to show improvement in power consumption. For example, the Samsung 28-nm low-power process delivers 35% less active and standby power at the same frequency than the company’s 45-nm low-power process, and the 28-nm process offers a 60%-of-active-power reduction at the same frequency compared with 45-nm low-power system-on-chip designs. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co’s 28-nm high-performance, low...

Spansion claims first 4-Gb NOR flash

...SAN FRANCISCO-NOR flash memory vendor Spansion Inc Tuesday (August 9) announced what it said was the semiconductor industry's first single-die, 4-gigabit (Gb) NOR product implemented at the 65-nm node. Spansion (Sunnyvale, Calif.) said the latest addition to its GL-S product line delivers high quality and fast read performance. The 4-Gb NOR device is sampling this month, Spansion said. Based on Spansion's proprietary MirrorBit charge-trapping technology, the Spansion GL-S is up to 45% faster read than competing NOR flash products, according to Spansion. The Spansion GL-S family is currently offered...
