Making a chip run faster is no longer guaranteed by shrinking features or moving to a different manufacturing process. It now requires a fundamental change in the architecture of the chip itself. The ...

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, ...

This course will give you the foundation for FPGA design in Embedded Systems. You will learn what an FPGA is and how this technology was developed, how to select the best FPGA architecture for a given ...

1. Embedded FPGAs must be expensive. Geoff Tate, CEO and Co-Founder of Flex Logix Technologies Inc. An embedded FPGA is similar to an FPGA chip, but simpler and cheaper. An FPGA chip has 30% or more ...
