How Chip Technology Will Decipher Brain Diseases
As part of Mission Lucidity, the brain-on-chip project tackles Parkinson’s disease. Central in this endeavor is imec’s high-density multi-electrode array (MEA) that can interface at a single-cell level. With stem cell technology that can reprogram cells, the MEA can create and tweak any relevant brain circuit to study disease mechanisms and the effects of drugs on the circuits.
A Collaborative Approach for Automotive Electronics
Collaboration along the supply chain, focused on common issues that emerge out of the dynamic electronics market and changing automotive ecosystem, will identify and drive improvements in the interest of the whole supply chain.
IBM Announces 2nm GAA-FET Technology – the Sum of “Aha!” Moments
IBM likes to create a stir once in awhile, and judging by the tech-press response in the last week or three, they have achieved that goal with their announcement of 2-nanometer CMOS technology, developed at their Albany research centre. This technology is expected to give a 45% performance boost or 75% power reduction, compared with a 7-nm process. Of course the question is, compared with what 7-nm process?
Honoring Bill Tobey
I have some sad news to share. Industry pioneer and legend Aubrey “Bill” Tobey passed away on March 1st. He was a good friend and a great supporter of The ConFab event that we produced.
