Simon Rance at Keysight Technologies talks about the challenges associated with IP management for chiplet projects and how design teams can improve IP security and compliance.
Keysight IP Management (HUB) integrates with IP design tools from all major electronic design automation (EDA) vendors for seamless collaboration. For semiconductor IP designers and project managers using data management tools, Keysight HUB includes connectors for smooth integration.
Chiplets are making big waves in the semiconductor industry, with global market size expected to grow 71.3% from 2023 to 2031.
With integration of multiple technologies, semiconductor design teams are reinvigorating Moore’s Law, by paving the way for designs featuring multi-billion transistors and hundreds of semiconductor intellectual properties (IPs).
However, powerful chiplet-based architectures have also introduced a new level of complexity in managing intellectual properties (IPs), from stringent export controls to compliances and IP security risks.

With the advent of 5G Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTNs), the landscape of satellite phone availability is undergoing a revolutionary transformation. Allison Freedman at Keysight Technologies shares that satellite service will be accessible to billions of mobile phone subscribers worldwide, heralding a new era of connectivity.
Traditionally, satellite communications have been reserved for specialised terminals with cumbersome antennas and costly subscription plans. But in a world where communication is paramount, access to reliable networks is not just a luxury but a necessity.
5G NTN, introduced as part of the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP)’s Release 17, distinguishes itself from traditional satellite networks through network-assisted operations.
This innovative approach involves base stations assisting in establishing and managing cell phone connections to satellites.
5G NTN Technology Overview
By adjusting the timing of radio frames and compensating for link frequency errors caused by satellite movement, 5G NTN makes it easier for user terminals to tolerate satellite link characteristics.

Toyota Motor Vietnam, one of Vietnam’s largest automobile manufacturers, is partnering with Synology to strengthen its data management infrastructure for its growing data storage and resiliency demands.
Toyota Motor Vietnam is deploying Synology’s data management infrastructure as a comprehensive solution to enhance business resilience and to achieve a 75% savings in data backup costs.
Toyota Motor Vietnam deployed Synology data management systems to securely store hundreds of terabytes of data that are generated from assembling tens of thousands of vehicles per year.
“Synology’s storage solution has increased our business resilience. Synology is reliable, secure, and provides future-proofing scalability for growing data needs,” said Bui Ta Hoan, IT Division Head at Toyota Motor Vietnam.
Together with Synology’s high availability and remote data protection features, Toyota Motor Vietnam’s IT infrastructure is now more resilient against disruptions.
The impetus for the rollout comes from the growth of production scale at Toyota Motor Vietnam over the years, which resulted in the need for more data storage for operation services and crucial data backups.
To safeguard their data from potential threats like ransomware, natural disasters, and human errors, Toyota Motor Vietnam sought a disaster-recovery solution.

The electric vehicle (EV) battery is one of the critical automotive technologies that have successfully scaled to support the e-mobility boom. Hwee Yng Yeo at Keysight Technologies shares her insights on ensuring quality of EV batteries from blueprint to production – in this Part 2 of a two-part commentary.
* Check out Part 1 here.
Design and test for battery cells and high-power battery packs are important in ensuring the quality of EV batteries from blueprint to production.
Once a new battery cell design is ready, it enters the mass production step, which is evolving rapidly.
According to a McKinsey report, if demand for battery cells continues to increase at 30% annually, the global market will need another 90 gigafactories, as of current capacity, to support vehicle electrification over the next decade.
Cell cycling and aging are the most time-consuming stages of the complex battery cell manufacturing process.
As the Americas and Europe catch up with China and Korea to manufacture electric vehicle batteries closer to their end markets, billions of dollars are poured into ramping up gigafactory production, which is a complex process, as illustrated above.

The electric vehicle (EV) battery is one of the critical automotive technologies that have successfully scaled to support the e-mobility boom. Hwee Yng Yeo at Keysight Technologies shares key design considerations for EV battery design in Part 1 of this two-part commentary.
The average EV battery pack costs US$153 / kWh in 2022 – a 90% price drop over a 15-year period. Looking forward, the automotive industry expects demand for Lithium-ion cells to grow by some 33% annually to 4,700 GWh by the end of this decade.
More affordable EV batteries will help bring about price parity between an EV and internal combustion engine car sooner rather than later.
However, keeping a check on battery costs is a constant challenge because of rising raw materials, supply chain, and energy costs, with cell manufacturing being an energy-intensive process.
Technological innovations play a big role in contributing to the inverse relationship between plummeting prices and soaring demand for EV batteries.
