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 ...

Plano, Texas , October 12, 2006 - Domain Technologies announces the availability of the industry's first, royalty-free, synthesizable MCS8051 code-compatible microcontroller netlist library and ...

Ernie Smith is a former contributor to BizTech, an old-school blogger who specializes in side projects, and a tech history nut who researches vintage operating systems for fun. When it comes to major ...

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 ...

Backing its low-cost positioning, the board relies on a fully open-source toolchain. Also, while not official yet, Akshar hinted at new Shrike-lite variants. Possibly a variant including an ESP32-S3, ...

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 ...

If you hadn’t noticed, we had a bit of an FPGA theme running at this year’s Superconference. Why? Because the open-source FPGA toolchain is ripening, and because many of the problems that hackers (and ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. FPGAs are wonderful tools. They consist of a collection of logic cells called lookup tables (LUTs) surrounded by an ...
