their trials – many years afterward – they can be surprisingly enthusiastic about sharing their experience. A most amusing collection of failures occurred when I was around age fourteen: after exhausting my family’s supply of batteries to power my electronic projects, I decided that there was no time to waste in designing and building my own power supply, the outcome of which proved to be an invaluable and rat...
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Ltd has unveiled a new and possibly controversial strategy that involves more collaboration in the early stages of the IC design process. TSMC's program is aimed to reduce development cycles and manufacturing costs, according to analysts. But it could also possibly cause a major stir in the industry, as the silicon foundry giant wants more of the IC pie and appears to be encroaching on the turf in the third-party EDA, IP, packaging and test communities.
digital system. Adder is only not used for the arithmetic operation but also necessary to all modern computers. Adders occupies critical path in key areas of microprocessor, fast adders are prime requirement for the design of fast processing system. Many fast adders are available but the design of high speed with low power and less area adders are still challenging. In modern computers, multiple ALU’S with wide adders and multiple execution core units on the same chip creates thermal hotspots and large

Semiconductor Devices Power electronics refers to control and conversion of electrical power by power semiconductor devices wherein these devices operate as switches. Advent of silicon-controlled rectifiers, abbreviated as SCRs, led to the development of a new area of application called the power electronics. Prior to the introduction of SCRs, mercury-arc rectifiers were used for controlling electrical power, but such rectifier circuits were part of industrial electronics and the scope for applications
The Integrated Circuit: The Evolution of an Electronic Miracle The microprocessor evolved over the course of many years of research, and people all over the world enjoy the benefits of this electronic miracle. It is difficult to think of anything that has affected modern life more than this invention. Cellular phones, wristwatches, calculators, automobiles, stereos, televisions, and computers are just a few of the thousands of electronic devices that have a microchip at the heart of its operation
technological development has increased the demand for compact and reliable electronic devices. Compact sized products with improved connectivity coupled with high speed will likely emerge winners. Connectors are an integral part of such devices. The key drivers of the connector industry are growing 3C applications (computing, communication, and consumer electronics), miniaturization of electronic devices, and increasing electronic content in devices. The growing market in Asia-Pacific According to Bishop
culture. The need for more interconnectivity is becoming more apparent in business, schools, and personal lives. IBM is working on a project, called Autonomic Computing, which will create a universal standard for technology and the integration of electronic devices. One of their claims for the necessity of the project is a quote, “Civilization advances by extending the number of important operations which we can perform without thinking about them." - Alfred North Whitehead. They say that we make
construction process starts with the statement of a desire and ends with usage of the finished product, and in between there are a consistent number of different phases, see Figure 2.1. Once the need has been determined, the actual design starts concordantly with the procurement. The design phase aims to generate technical specifications and drawing needed, whereas procurement refers to the purchase of the work (Nordstrand, 2008). Figure 2.1: The construction process in general. Adapted from (Nordstrand, 2008)
Electronics websites are a strange beast at least in the way they advertise online. A majority of electronics companies choose to specialize in only a few products. Many also choose not to advertise on social media at all like in the case of Apple, and instead focus on the customer being able to find what they want or need offering advice and assistance in order to push a sale. Electronics stores also make sales on products through sponsors or reviews. My choice for a high-end website is Central

history, and changes associated with Artificial Intelligence from 1950’s onward. The book provides a basic explanation that Artificial Intelligence involves simulating human behavior or performance using encoded thought processes and reasoning with electronic free standing components that do mechanical work. 1. Philosophers in 400 B.C saw the human mind as a sort of machine, and believed it operated through encoded knowledge that decided which actions to take. Mathematicians since then developed complex
processes involved, infused a desire in me to be part of this process. The amazing task of connecting the world is the monopoly of electronic devices; hence, I made Electronic & Communication engineering my choice. In addition to finding out how a device operates, I have always been interested in design aspects and monitoring the incipient faults occurring within electronic gadgets. This urge has strengthened my ability to recognize the scope for improvement and motivated me to look beyond the conventional
