Lattice Semiconductor picked up a gold cybersecurity award in May 2026 for what the company says is the industry’s first ...
AI is hungry, hyperscale AI ravenous. Both can devour processing, electricity, algorithms, and programming schedules. As AI models rapidly get larger and more complex (an estimated 10x a year), a ...
SAN JOSE, Calif. & MENLO PARK, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Altera Corporation, a leader in FPGA innovations, today announced that Silver Lake, a global leader in technology investing, has completed its ...
Reset is an important mechanism to bring a digital system into a known state. The need for reset is governed by the system design and application, and various data and control paths are designed to ...
For the most part, embedded FPGA can be viewed as a “black box,” which is effectively as an RTL engine. However, sometimes it’s helpful to understand what’s going on underneath the hood to evaluate ...
Choosing to add programmable logic into an SoC with an eFPGA is just the beginning. Other choices follow involving how many lookup tables (LUTs), how much routing and what topology, how will data be ...
Lattice Semiconductor has begun shipping what it says is the first FPGA family built to meet the NSA’s CNSA 2.0 post-quantum ...
One of the exciting trends in hardware availability is the inexorable move of FPGA boards and modules towards affordability. What was once an eye-watering price is now merely an expensive one, and no ...
FPGAs are getting larger, more complex, and significantly harder to verify and debug. In the past, FPGAs were considered a relatively quick and simple way to get to market before committing to the ...
