Technology Advancements For Dynamic Function eXchange In Vivado ML Edition

By Xilinx - 11 Feb, 2022 - Comments: 0

As systems become more complex and designers are asked to do more with less, adaptability is a critical asset. While Xilinx FPGAs and SoCs always provided the flexibility to perform on-site device reprogramming, current constraints including increased cost, tighter board space, and power consumption demand even more efficient design strategies. Xilinx Dynamic Function eXchange (DFX) extends the... » read more

Shifting the Burden of Tool Safety Compliance from Users to Vendor

By OneSpin Solutions - 30 Jan, 2019 - Comments: 0

The security, safety and performances of autonomous vehicles, railways, aerospace, nuclear power plants and medical devices rely on electronic systems and their hardware components. Engineers use advanced software tools to develop complex hardware. Tools may malfunction, generate erroneous output and ultimately introduce or fail to detect systematic hardware faults that could cause hazardous ev... » read more

Fab Tool R&D And Ramen Noodles

By Mark LaPedus - 22 Jan, 2015 - Comments: 0

The semiconductor equipment and materials industry has always been a tough business. Over the years, vendors have been under pressure to develop new technologies for a shrinking but demanding customer base. And as a result, many vendors could not keep up, or elected to exit the business, causing a massive shakeout in the industry. It isn’t getting any easier, though. Today, tool and... » read more
