Artificial intelligence has raced ahead so quickly that its biggest constraint is no longer clever algorithms but the plumbing that feeds them data. A new generation of 3D chips, built by stacking ...

Cultured neural tissues have been widely used as a simplified experimental model for brain research. However, existing devices for growing and recording neural tissues, which are manufactured using ...

Researchers at Stanford, MIT, and other universities unveiled a new, monolithic 3D processor that could help solve one of the biggest problems facing chipmakers: the processor-memory performance gap.

Cancer research laboratory tests can now be done using micro-physiological systems mimicking human physiology, allowing ...

As process nodes continue to advance into the sub-micron era, the limitations of traditional scaling are becoming increasingly evident. Larger monolithic chips are facing challenges such as higher ...

The rapid adoption of 3D integrated circuits (ICs) and heterogeneous packaging heralds a new era in semiconductor design. Benefits are clear: greater functional density, reduced footprint, and ...

A stacked chip captures, encrypts, and searches image data directly on hardware, combining photodetection, memory, and key generation for secure real-time processing in connected devices. (Nanowerk ...

The Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 has a terrible name, but could be a hell of a workstation CPU.

Semiconductor chiplets represent an advancement in microchip design. They divide traditional monolithic systems into smaller, modular components. Unlike traditional monolithic SoCs, which integrate ...
