Cryptocurrency Mining ASIC Top Level

Mine Cryptocurrencies Sooner Part 3

Raymond Nijssen,Vice President and Chief Technologist

New, post-Bitcoin cryptocurrencies have been developed with ASIC resistance to level the competitive playing field for cryptocurrency miners, as discussed in parts 1 and 2 of this blog. ASIC resistance was developed to counteract monopolization of cryptocurrencies by the few entities that can afford to build ASIC solutions, as has happened with Bitcoin. However, ASIC resistance does not ensure the necessary scarcity of a cryptocurrency.

Moving Machine Learning off the Cloud Calls for eFPGAs

Alok Sanghavi,Sr. Marketing Manager

Artificial intelligence is reshaping the world we live in and opening opportunities in commercial and industrial systems applications that range from autonomous driving and medical diagnostics to home appliances, industrial automation, adaptive websites and financial analytics. Next up is the communications infrastructure that links systems together, moving toward automated self-repair and optimization. For example, the U.S.

My Path to Achronix Applications Engineering

Katie Purcell,Senior Staff Applications Engineer

Growing up in Virginia, I never thought I would become an engineer. Not that I didn’t want to be an engineer — the thought just never crossed my mind. As a kid, I spent most of my free time pursuing various arts. I loved music, learning to play the flute, piccolo, and later the electric bass, on top of spending many years studying classical ballet. And it may not be considered art, but I also loved baking; the process of perfecting old recipes and the creativity of coming up with new ones.

Next-Generation AI Hardware needs to be Flexible and Programmable

Steve Mensor,Vice President, Marketing

Artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping the way the world works, opening up countless opportunities in commercial and industrial systems. Applications span diverse markets such as autonomous driving, medical diagnostics, home appliances, industrial automation, adaptive websites and financial analytics. Even the communications infrastructure linking these systems together is moving towards automated self-repair and optimization.

Network Security

Speedcore eFPGA Enable Increased Security in Networks Solution on the Edge

Alok Sanghavi,Sr. Marketing Manager

Next-generation networking solutions are pushing processing out of the cloud and towards the network’s edge. At the same time, processing structures architected around programmable logic provide the ability to make computing much more data-centric. Programmable logic makes it possible to construct data pipelines versus traditional processors demand for data to be fed to their pipelines through a complex hierarchy of memory caches.

360 Degree

Speedcore eFPGAs are an Enabling Technology for 360° Surround-view Systems

Alok Sanghavi,Sr. Marketing Manager

Next-generation video applications such as surveillance, object detection, motion analysis now rely on 360° embedded vision. In these systems, multiple real-time camera streams (up to six) are processed together frame by frame, with each frame corrected for distortion and other image artifacts, adjusted for exposure and white balance, and then stitched together dynamically into a single 360° panoramic view, then output at 4K 60 fps and ultimately projected on a spherical coordinate space.

Risk Management

Speedcore eFPGAs as a Risk Mitigator

Alok Sanghavi,Sr. Marketing Manager

System architects and program managers worry about how to mitigate risk when developing an SoC. Risk can present itself in many forms, but it is most commonly the result of ill-defined and changing standards as well as the need to future-proof designs.
