Graphical tools for system design are also available for FPGA programming. These software tools are now being created to work closely with FPGA-based hardware platforms to make custom hardware even ...

Recently, Brian Bailey organized a round table that resulted in a two-part article called Supporting CPUs Plus FPGAs. The experts discussed the evolving reality of systems design based on FPGAs and ...

Intel Corp. has spent a lot of effort pushing the concept of its Field Programmable Gate Arrays, which can be used to accelerate various computing tasks such as artificial intelligence and machine ...

Field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) are becoming an increasingly popular tool for applications where high performance, low latency and power efficiency are requires. Since an FPGA can be ...

Since their beginnings, FPGA’s have been notorious for being hard to program. That could be changing with the new Vitis Unified Software Platform from Xilinx. Five years in the making, the Vitis ...

It used to be that designing hardware required schematics and designing software required code. Sure, a lot of people could jump back and forth, but it was clearly a different discipline. Today, a lot ...

Every new hardware device that offers some kind of benefit compared to legacy devices faces the task of overcoming the immense inertia that is imparted to a platform by the software that runs upon it.

Soon to be launching via the Crowd Supply website are two new FPGA programming boards taking the form of the µLab Kiwi and Kiwi Lite. The project has launched as yet but you can jump over to the ...

Altera University aims to affordably and easily introduce students to the world of FPGAs and digital logic programming tools by unveiling the curriculum, tutorials, and lab exercises that bridge the ...

One of the best features of using FPGAs for a design is the inherent parallelism. Sure, you can write software to take advantage of multiple CPUs. But with an FPGA you can enjoy massive parallelism ...

SEGGER has announced the introduction of the Flasher BitStreamer, a new embedded software solution that expands the programming capabilities of its Flasher family of in-system programmers (ISPs).

This file type includes high-resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. Tom De Schutter, Director of Product Marketing, Physical Prototyping, Synopsys Inc. FPGA-based prototyping allows for ...
