Last week there was a bustle of activity at the Embedded Systems Conference (ESC) in Boston. In particular, it was apparent that the use of programmable logic in the form of FPGAs is dramatically ...

As the economic slowdown takes its toll on development budgets, embedded-system designers are turning to FPGA (field-programmable-gate-array) technology to shorten design cycles, combat obsolescence, ...

Field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) have provided developers with flexibility. Recently, FPGAs have incorporated system-on-chip (SoC) microprocessors such 64-bit, ARM Cortex-A57 cores. This ...

National Instruments' Business and Technology Fellow Mike Santori discusses how field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) are changing the way engineers design, prototype and deploy embedded systems.

The embedded FPGA, an IP core integrated into an ASIC or SoC, is winning converts. System architects are starting to see the benefits of eFPGAs, which offer the flexibility of programmable logic ...

The FS2 Logic Navigator System is designed for embedded debug, trace, and logic analysis on Atmel FPSLIC and FPGA products. Logic Navigator supports the FS2 On-Chip Instrumentation (OCI) blocks, ...

Choosing to add programmable logic into an SoC with an eFPGA is just the beginning. Other choices follow involving how many lookup tables (LUTs), how much routing and what topology, how will data be ...

You see them at almost every user seminar or industry trade show workshop: the Methodology Managers from XYZ Corporation, who describe the system they use to help the company make sense of the ...
