FPGA and SoC software reduces compile times
The release of the Quartus II software version 13.0, delivers the highest levels of FPGA and SoC performance and designer productivity. Users targeting 28 nm FPGAs and SoCs will experience on average a 25 percent reduction in compile times. The most difficult-to-close designs targeting high-end 28 nm Stratix V FPGAs will see compilation times slashed […]
Sensor Extender Enables Longer Distances Between Image Sensor and ISP
The SensorExtender offers a low-cost approach to remotely locate image sensors up to eight meters away from the image signal processor (ISP) and transmit and receive video signals at resolutions that range up to 720p60 and 1080p30. The reference design uses inexpensive low-cost Cat5E cable to carry high-definition video and to send I2C sensor control […]
World’s Smallest FPGA for Miniature Systems
The iCE40 LP384 FPGA, is the smallest member of its expanding iCE40 family of ultra-low density FPGAs. Enabling designers to rapidly add new features and differentiate cost-sensitive, space-constrained, low-power products, the new small footprint FPGA is ideal for applications such as portable medical monitors, smartphones, digital cameras, eReaders, and compact embedded systems. The tiny, low […]
