Developing semiconductors for safety-critical markets such as automotive, industrial and medical involves a growing list of extra steps that need to be taken pre- and post-manufacturing to ensure product integrity, reliability and security.

The rise of mobile scan and go technology
The way that consumers shop in-store is fundamentally changing.
The rise of ‘Scan and Go’ technology, coupled with other industry developments, is helping retailers to overhaul the buying experience that they offer their customers. So, what do retailers need to know about Scan and Go, and what are its benefits?
DDR5 memory is twice as fast as DDR4 and slated for 2019
In many cases, the cost of a DDR4 memory kit is twice what it was a year ago, but if it comes as any consolation, at least the market isn’t standing pat. Rambus, a company that is known equally well for developing memory technologies as it is for suing other firms over the use of its IP, announced that it has a functional DDR5 DIMM (dual in-line memory module) prototype.
Rambus announces industry’s first fully functional DDR5 DIMM
Specialist memory company Rambus has announced a fully functional DDR5 DIMM (dual in-line memory module) prototype. It claims to have achieved an industry first with its DIMM “capable of achieving the speeds required for the upcoming DDR5 standard”.
Rambus announces industry’s first functional silicon of server DIMM buffer chipset targeted for next-generation DDR5
Rambus Inc. has announced functional silicon of a double data rate (DDR) server DIMM (dual inline memory module) buffer chipset prototype for the next-generation DDR5 memory technology. This represents a key milestone for Rambus as the industry’s first silicon-proven memory buffer chip prototype capable of achieving the speeds required for the upcoming DDR5 standard.
DDR5 Runs in Rambus’ Labs
Rambus has working silicon in its labs for DDR5, the next major interface for DRAM dual in-line memory modules (DIMMs). The register clock drivers and data buffers could help double the throughput of main memory in servers, probably starting in 2019 — and they are already sparking a debate about the future of computing.
