Extending Shannon For Tablets Using 20 nm IPThe Eyes Have it : A Mixed-signal IP Blog - Navraj Nandra, SynopsysOct. 18, 2011 |
Tomorrow I’ll be presenting at TSMC’s OIP (Open Innovation Program) on a topic regarding high performance analog and interface IP that is used in the latest smart phones, tablets and also the data centers. The idea of the talk was triggered by an article that I read about how the theoretical limit of Shannon’s Law is being reached and that Moore’s Law can be used to extend this bandwidth limit. What I’m presenting is that using the latest 28 nm and 20 nm technologies high performance analog and interface IP can be developed that can extend Shannon’s theoretical limit. If you cannot attend the talk, here’s the summary.
