Inside Electronics

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.

Modern industrial systems serve a wide range of applications, from process control and manufacturing automation to robotics and beyond. Solutions for these demands require precision and efficiency, leveraging advanced device intelligence and network connectivity. Companies can maximize ROI by gathering real-time data to drive analytics to help lower costs and improve efficiency. 

In this episode, we talk to Felix Galindo, a Principal Engineer at Digi International to talk about secure, reliable connectivity and infrastructure for business-critical applications.

Recently, Nanusens has begun making nano-scale structures within the layers of a CMOS chip using standard processes in CMOS fabs. The resulting MEMS sensors and the required control circuitry form single-chip solutions that are significantly smaller than their current, multi-component counterparts. We sat down with Nanusens CEO Dr. Josep Montanyà Silvestre to talk about the industry, the company, and its technology.
