As many as half of all embedded designs have an FPGA next to a microcontroller. The FPGA can be used to implement anything from glue logic, to custom IP, to accelerators for computationally intensive ...

Inside any electronic device, from an old television remote to a global positioning system, there will be at least one microcontroller unit (MCU) and, in many cases, several. MCUs are used in ...

Today’s marketplace is getting heavily disrupted by the current semiconductor chip shortage that has hampered our manufacturing production lines. This is evident by the limited supply of products ...

Fig 1. Intel’s E600C blends an Intel Atom processor with an Altera FPGA on a multi-chip package linking the two using PCI Express links. Fig 2. Xilinx’s Zynq-7000 EPP puts a full dual-core Cortex-A9 ...

When you think of microcontroller development, you probably picture either a breadboard with a chip or a USB-connected circuit board. But Tim Ansell pictured an ARM dev board that is almost completely ...

Altera’s non-volatile MAX 10 FPGA (Fig. 1) makes a great platform for custom microcontroller applications using soft-cores like Altera’s 32-bit NIOS II processor. It has on-chip flash and RAM ...

Tiny Linux computers are everywhere, and between BeagleBones, Raspberry and Banana Pis, and a hundred other boards out there, there are enough choices to go around. There is an extremely interesting ...

Austin, Texas, June 18, 2024: AMD and VORAGO Technologies are pleased to announce that AMD Space-Grade Kintex UltraScale FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Arrays) can be reconfigured by VORAGO’s ...

Mouser Electronics has signed a global distribution agreement with FPGA and embedded FPGA IP company, QuickLogic. The distributor will initally stock Quicklogic’s EOS S3 low power microcontrollers ...
