Chip Industry Technical Paper Roundup: Jan. 23

RISC-V Wants All Your Cores

It is not enough to want to dominate the world of CPUs. RISC-V has every core in its sights, and it's starting to take steps to get there.

The Future Of Memory

From attempts to resolve thermal and power issues to the roles of CXL and UCIe, the future holds a number of opportunities for memory.

ReRAM Seeks To Replace NOR

There is increased interest in ReRAM for embedded computing, especially in automotive applications, as more of its known issues are solved. Nevertheless, there is no one-size-fits-all NVM.

RISC-V Micro-Architectural Verification

Verifying a processor is much more than making sure the instructions work, but the industry is building from a limited knowledge base and few dedicated tools.

Gearing Up For Hybrid Bonding

Toolsets are starting to meet the stringent cleanliness, flatness and placement accuracy specs, but doing all of that at lower temperatures isn't possible yet.
