Electronic Design has been serving the engineering community with pride for decades, providing news, commentary, and interviews about the industry. Hosted by industry veteran Alix Paultre, the Inside Electronics podcast brings you commentary, news, and interviews about the things going on in the electronic design engineering community and its surrounding business ecosystem.
Currently, AI and edge computing are hitting a wall when it comes to power budgets, latency, and cloud dependence, hindering real-world deployments. This issue is complicated by the need to integrate a great deal of input from sensors and other devices. In this episode, we talk to Sumeet Kumar, co-founder & CEO of Innatera, about the state of the AI industry and the company’s spiking neural network technology.
In this episode of Inside Electronics, host Alix Paultre interviews Jeff Kring, Product Manager for Integrated Connector Modules at Bel, about Ethernet’s evolution. They discuss Base-T Ethernet’s ubiquity, how Power over Ethernet has extended its life, and the roles of cabling standards and IEEE speed standards. Kring explains why 2.5G and 5G emerged as practical “fill-in” speeds that let buildings with Cat5e and Cat6 cabling gain more bandwidth without costly rewiring. He also covers PoE’s growing power needs for Wi-Fi base stations and security cameras, the importance of magnetics qualification, and how reference designs help ensure performance, emissions compliance, and interoperability. The conversation closes with a look at future speeds like 25G and 40G Base-T, which exist as standards but lack market-ready chips.
In this episode, two of our editors, Bill Wong and Alix Paultre, discuss the current AI ecosystem and some of the issues involved in its expansion into the engineering community. They will also talk about some of the new AI-driven design tools available.
The electric grid is in a race to keep up with surging demand for power—and it's falling behind. The demand is driven by everything from the rapid growth of renewable energy to electricity-guzzling AI data centers. In this episode, Electronic Design Senior Editor James Morra and Editor-at-Large Alix Paultre explore these topics and more, including the growing role of spent EV batteries as a second source for energy storage.
The aspect of security has existed ever since the first human had something precious to them that they wanted to protect. Cyber threats and the organizations that perpetrate them are constantly evolving, and relying on reactive detection as a primary safeguard is no longer enough. In this episode, we talk with Christophe Nicolas, SVP GTM at Kudelski Labs , about the current cybersecurity environment and its challenges.
Additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing, is growing in capability and utility in advanced systems. In the electronics industry, this is especially true with complex assemblies like connectors, which need to be made to high precision with many complex features. In this episode, we talk to TE Connectivity 's Benjamin Dopp about some of the challenges undertaken at TE, and the operations and production for 3D printing.
Organizations like the Embedded Software Academy offer expert guidance to start, grow, and modernize embedded software skills with expert-led workshops, hands-on courses, and curated resources. In this episode, we talk to Jacob Beningo, who founded and runs the Embedded Software Academy, to educate hardware developers in the latest software systems and solutions.
Fifty years ago National Instruments (NI) started building test and measurement hardware. Ten years later it launched LabVIEW, a graphical programming language and environment. In this episode, Kevin Schultz discusses NI’s hardware/software platform including where it is headed with the Nigel AI Assistant that is making inroads into other NI software, not just LabVIEW.
In this episode, we talk with Objective Analysis’ Jim Handy about memory, semiconductors, and chiplets. Handy has provided Electronic Design readers with insights into the semiconductor and memory market for many years. He is also on top of the chiplet market with regular reports.
Many powerful AI solutions are ineffective in Edge scenarios due to excessive power consumption, and EdgeCortix addresses specialized AI accelerators for Edge computing using a software-driven approach. We recently had the opportunity to sit down with Dr. Sakyasingha Dasgupta, the founder and CEO of EdgeCortix, and talk to him about the state of the marketplace and his perceptions of it.
