At densities ranging from half a million to 5 million gates, programmable devices still do not match the gate count of application-specific integrated circuits and system-on-chip designs that use ...

For decades, Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) have been the go-to solution for safety systems across refineries, chemical plants and power facilities. Reliable, flexible and widely understood, ...

Now is the time to invest in programmable logic devices (PLDs), and there’s no better way to do that than through Altera and Xilinx. Here are six reasons why. Logic is used to manage the interchange ...

The world has faced many geopolitical, environmental, economic, and technological changes over the past several years, and with these have come new learnings and opportunities to refine our practices ...

Acromag has introduced the XMC-ZU series, a configurable XMC module based on the AMD Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC. The device ...

Configurable logic blocks (CLBs) house the logic for the FPGA. Typically, these CLBs contain enough logic to create a small state machine. A CLB normally contains RAM to create arbitrary combinatorial ...

A system-on-module (SOM) introduced by Avnet Electronics Marketing boosts programmable logic threefold, enabling engineers to run more complex applications for models in evaluation and prototyping, ...

Multimedia devices or systems can range from a very basic consumer audio video player to a highly complex audio video capture, edit, and playback system used in a professional studio environment.

LONDON — FPGA vendor Xilinx Inc. (San Jose, Calif.) and ARM Holdings plc (Cambridge, England) have announced they are collaborating to enable ARM processor and interconnect technology to be ...

When electronics release the Magic Smoke, more often than not it’s a fairly sedate event. Something overheats, the packaging gets hot enough to emit that characteristic and unmistakable odor, and ...
