Samsung Semiconductor INC.
Room:
Ametista III
Chair: Toshihiko Komatsu; Itaucom
Abstract:
The object is to present an informative view of future semiconductor memory
trends (2003-2007) with a discussion of the applications driving those
trends. Discussion will include perspectives on DRAM, SRAM, Flash, and
options for next generation semiconductor memory. Applications discussed
will include enterprise computing, set-top box, automotive, consumer,
networking, and mobile/handset products.

Tecnology
for the Development of System-On-a-Chip ASIC systems with fast prototyping
methodology, very short time to market and low cost
Neimar Duarte,
PI Componentes
Room:
Topázio
Chair: Volney Antonio Pedroni - CEFET-PR
Abstract: With new VLSI technologies as 0.13-micron and emerging
90 nm, the densities of available FPGA devices have been growing to a
point where very complex SoC system are possible to be implemented in
new FPGA devices. The main issue is, usually, the price of this solution
for the final product when high production volumes are expected. To produce
an ASIC or Gate Array with those technologies, by other side, the initial
investment needed is, today, around US$ 500K for 0.13 micron and over
US$ 1M for 90 nm, a value too high for most applications. What we present
is a technology that takes the advantage of the FPGA development time
and methodology, but with an ASIC as a final product, without the initial
ASIC investments, allowing a fast development cycle, a very short time
to market and low cost.

PRÊMIO
DESAFIO TECNOLÓGICO GENIUS
Marcel Bergerman
Genius Instituto de Tecnologia
Room:
Ametista III
Chair: Mauricio Massazumi Oka - LSI/USP
Abstract: Nesta palestra apresentamos o Prêmio Desafio Tecnológico
Genius, a ser lançado em 2004 pelo Genius Instituto de Tecnologia.
O Genius é o primeiro instituto privado de pesquisa e desenvolvimento
brasileiro criado por uma empresa nacional do ramo de eletrônica
de consumo. Em uma frase, o Genius pode ser definido como um agente de
inovação tecnológica, isto é, que atua na
transformação do conhecimento gerado nas universidades em
tecnologias e plataformas inovadoras para o mercado. A iniciativa do Prêmio
Desafio Tecnológico Genius visa estreitar o relacionamento de sucesso
já estabelecido entre o instituto e os grupos de pesquisa brasileiros,
através da premiação de grupos por sua atuação
destacada em temas de pesquisa sugeridas pelo instituto à comunidade
científica do país.

Motorola
SPS Design Activities in Brazil: a success story
Narcizo Sabbatini
Junior32-Bit Microcontroller Design Manager
Motorola SPS, Brazil
Room:
Topázio
Chair: Volney Antonio Pedroni - CEFET-PR
Abstract: This presentation describes the IC design activities
done by the Motorola Semiconductor Products Sector (SPS) in Brazil. The
history, products and technologies developed here will be described. There
will also be a discussion about the various factors that motivated the
creation of a design center in Brazil, and most important, what it takes
to make a design operation successful against world wide competition.
