Programmable-logic devices are the fastest growing segment of the logic-device family for two fundamental reasons. Their ever-increasing gate count per device gathers up functions that you might ...

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 ...

AI is beginning to make inroads into designing and managing programmable logic, where it can be used to simplify and speed up portions of the design process. FPGAs and DSPs are st ...

The paper describes how, with a SOPC (System on a Programmable Chip) architecture embedded with a 32-Bit NIOS-II, a Layer 2 Ethernet switch can be implemented in a FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) ...

Microchip has introduced a 32 logic elements programmable logic array into a microcontroller. Each logic element can simulate AND, OR, NAND or NOR gate, a buffer or inverting buffer, a D or JK ...

Renesas Technology is looking to combine one of its SH processor cores with programmable logic to create what could be its first reconfigurable microprocessor. Dr Katsuhiro Tsukamoto, president and ...
