Handle with care: Power and perils of compound semiconductors
In the realm of advanced electronics and photonics, compound semiconductors are the silent enablers of breakthrough performance in many applications. Built from materials like indium gallium arsenide (InGaAs) or gallium arsenide (GaAs), these semiconductors enable applications that are beyond the capabilities of silicon devices. Examples include avalanche photodiodes (APDs) for ultra-sensitive infrared detection at eye-safe…

System-level test’s expanding role in producing complex chips
System-level test (SLT), once used largely as a stopgap measure to catch issues missed by automated test equipment (ATE), has evolved into a necessary test insertion for high-performance processors, chiplets, and other advanced computational devices. Today, SLT is critical for ensuring that chips function correctly in real-world conditions, and all major CPUs, APUs, and GPUs…

Hardware alterations: Unintended, apparent advantageous adaptations
After many (many) years of resisting temptation, followed by sowing seeds via succumbing to irresistible, gently-used-on-eBay prices for both generations of Schiit’s Mani phono preamp: Vinyl enthusiasm I’ve recently reconnected with the “vinyl” infatuation of my youth. Sorry, audiophiles, you’re still not going to convince me that records “sound better” than lossless (in reality, preferably perceptibly, minimally), large sample size, and high sample…

Can microchannels, manifolds, and two-phase cooling keep chips happy?
Two-phase cooling Thermal management is an ongoing concern for many designs. The process usually begins with a tactic for dissipating or removing heat from the primary sources (mostly but not exclusively “chips”), then progresses to keeping the circuit-board assembly cool, and finally getting the heat out of the box and “away” to where it becomes…

Your Car Sees More Than You Think
– Advertisement – Smart in-cabin intelligence is quietly reshaping the driving experience—detecting fatigue,fine-tuning comfort, and reinforcing safety without intruding on the journey. In modern vehicles, in-cabin sensing refers to the use of various sensors to monitor what is happening inside the car. These sensors focus primarily on two areas: driver monitoring systems (DMS) and occupant…
