The consumer Internet of Things (IoT) is a global, borderless phenomenon, and everyone expects their IoT devices to work safely, no matter where they live or where their devices are deployed. Unfortunately, harmonization of cybersecurity standards has been difficult to obtain. Network-connected devices have been around for years, but many of them still miss the […]

As Renesas Grows Globally, Human Resources Evolves into a Strategic Differentiator Renesas has grown from a large Japanese company serving a global customer base to a truly global enterprise with a footprint on multiple continents. That rapid expansion, much of which resulted from a series of strategic acquisitions, has introduced change to every facet of […]

Digital transformation has evolved quickly from a conceptual phase to a semiconductor industry change agent. The rapid take up of AI-enhanced product development is only accelerating this transformation and is further influenced by two connected trends: The movement of Moore’s Law from transistor scaling to system-level scaling, and the relatively recent redistribution of the global […]

The quest for seamless automotive connectivity while maintaining and managing a steady data flow is becoming a critical challenge in the fast-evolving landscape of Software-Defined Vehicles (SDV) — transforming how the automotive industry acquires and leverages insights using analytics and machine learning. OEMs require tools to keep pace with the ongoing transformation, unleashing the potential […]

Autonomous & even partially automated driving face much more challenges than what was anticipated at times, this is not breaking news neither new. Today, there are still many obstacles between a fully working prototype and a ready-to-ship solution for the mass market: road infrastructure, reliability, safety, acceptance, human behavior, legislation… That said, progress is constantly […]

Safety is a terminology which defines the level of safety standard with certification body such as TUV, VDE, etc. It’s an upward trend to implement Functional Safety IEC61508, with SIL3 and HFT=1 architecture to cover both Factory Automation and Process Automation in Industrial Automation world. Customers recognize the importance but usually face multiple bottlenecks in […]

In this blog, I will introduce how to do AI coding using Chat-GPT and the RL78 Arduino-compatible board, along with its practical examples. Background knowledge What is Chat-GPT? Chat-GPT is an AI tool developed by OpenAI that can understand user input text or questions based on pre-trained text information and produce answers. However, it doesn’t […]

The Internet of Things is exploding. Devices are connected and communicating with one another, enabled by ubiquitous wired and wireless connectivity. This hyper-connectivity allows collection of massive amounts of data that can be harvested, analyzed and used to make intelligent decisions. The ability to draw insights from data and make autonomous decisions based on these […]

Automotive industry players are “stepping on the gas” to accelerate adoption of a new paradigm – one where the digital infrastructure of the vehicle becomes more critical to selling cars than the mechanical power plant itself. To hear it from Daimler R&D CIO Siegmar Haasis, “80 percent of product innovation and differentiation is now electrical, […]
