FPGA 2022 Conference: Top Four Takeaways

Achronix's Raymond Nijssen and Michael Riepe attended this year's virtual FPGA 22 Conference — an event predominantly focused on the use of FPGAs as data accelerators in AI, ML, genomics, and high-level synthesis. In this blog, Raymond and Michael provide their Top Four Takeaways from the Virtual FPGA 22 Conference.

How to Select the Right eFPGA IP Technology Partner

An eFPGA is a licensable FPGA IP core that can be embedded into a custom ASIC or SoC just like any other licensable silicon IP core. In evaluating eFPGA IP technology providers, it is important to look at critical factors to help determine if the solution is best for your application.

FPGAs Create the Optimal Data Accelerator

With the programmability of a CPU or GPU and the speed of an ASIC, FPGAs offer the optimal efficiency of power and performance when flexibility is a requirement for compute, networking and storage acceleration use cases.

Embedded FPGAs for Next-Generation Automotive ASICs

For anyone who has looked at new cars lately, it's hard not to notice how quickly automotive electronics are advancing. Looking at automotive safety technology from just three years ago vs. today, you see a significant increase in the number of cameras to support applications such as surround-view display, driver distraction monitors, stereo vision cameras, forward-facing and multiple rearview cameras.Speedcore

Increase Performance Using an FPGA with 2D NoC

Achronix Speedster7t FPGAs feature a revolutionary new two-dimensional network on chip (NoC), which provides >20 Tbps ultra-high bandwidth connectivity to external high-speed interfaces and for routing data within the programmable logic fabric. The NoC is structured as a series of rows and columns spread across the Speedster7t FPGA fabric. Each row or column has two 256-bit data paths using industry standard AXI data format, which support 512 Gbps data rates.
