System-on-chip (SoC) architects have a new memory technology, last level cache (LLC), to help overcome the design obstacles of bandwidth, latency and power consumption in megachips for advanced driver ...

Cache memory sits at the heart of modern computing performance, bridging the speed gap between processors and main memory. By leveraging principles like temporal and spatial locality, engineers design ...

Exponential increases in data and demand for improved performance to process that data has spawned a variety of new approaches to processor design and packaging, but it also is driving big changes on ...

Designing a memory subsystem is complex and can be a significant part of a system design and directly impact time to market. Design and development complexity is increased when both volatile and ...

Many people have heard the term cache coherency without fully understanding the considerations in the context of system-on-chip (SoC) devices, especially those using a network-on-chip (NoC). To ...

AMD is raising the bar in its battle against Intel in the data center with a new lineup of EPYC CPUs that use its 3D packaging technology to triple the L3 cache, giving them a significant hike in ...

AMD is leveraging one of its latest families of EPYC server CPUs, code-named Genoa X, in-house to run the electronic design automation (EDA) tools it uses for product development. Based on TSMC's 5-nm ...
