Lattice Semiconductor Corporation and Affarii Technologies Limited, a solutions provider for networking and telecommunications applications, today announced that they have developed a complete 3G/4G-based Remote Radio Head (RRH) solution for wireless infrastructure customers. This is the first time a full RRH solution has been made available using low power, low cost FPGAs that allows low power RRHs to be deployed without sacrificing flexibility ...

If you are yet to employ what is rapidly becoming the most widely deployed architecture in the (albeit relatively short) history of electronic engineering, here’s a beginner’s guide to the ARM Cortex-M series processors, including why you don’t need to be an expert to use one. By Joseph Yiu

austriamicrosystems' Full Service Foundry business unit today released its further expanded fast and cost-efficient ASIC prototyping service, known as Multi-Project Wafer (MPW) or shuttle run, with an even more extensive schedule in 2011. The service, which combines several designs from different customers onto one wafer offers significant cost advantages for foundry customers as the costs for wafer and masks are shared among a number of differen...

austriamicrosystems and partner New Scale Technologies, Inc., a provider of innovative miniature motion systems have strengthened their sales and distribution relationship by incorporating New Scale’s proprietary ASICs into austriamicrosystems standard product portfolio.

Synaptics Inc. today entered the home appliance market and announced it is providing the capacitive touch control panel solution for the new Samsung Hauzen ZERO air conditioner. Samsung incorporated the Synaptics TouchButtons solution to provide easy operation and a pleasing aesthetic design for the product.

Cypress Semiconductor Corp. introduces the PSoC Creator Integrated Development Environment for the new PSoC 3 and PSoC 5 programmable system-on-chip families. The unique new design software enables engineers to design the way they think, using schematic-based design capture along with certified, pre-packaged peripherals to keep system creation independent of the target PSoC device.

Xilinx announced its Virtex-7 HT FPGAs with demonstrated 28Gbps serial transceiver performance required for next generation 100-400Gbps applications. The 28nm FPGAs enable communication equipment vendors to develop the integrated, high-bandwidth-efficient systems necessary to keep pace with the exploding global demand for more bandwidth in the wired infrastructure and datacenters. The new devices are equipped with the industry's highest-speed an...

Xilinx announced today that its FPGAs would be the first in the industry to support the MECHATROLINK-III specification, an open motion field network communications standard established by the Iruma, Saitama Prefecture, Japan-based MECHATROLINK Members Association. Xilinx Alliance Program member Tokyo Electron Device Limited has developed an IP core compatible with the MECHATROLINK-III standard for implementation with the low-cost Spartan(R)-6 FPG...

Xilinx, Inc. announced the first shipments and availability of its Virtex-6 LX760 device. As the industry's largest FPGA available for delivery with immediate design tool support, the Virtex-6 LX760 device enables Xilinx customers who need raw logic density and industry-leading I/O performance to get started on their projects today using the Xilinx ISE Design Suite 11.4.

Xilinx Inc. today announced the foundation for a next-generation of Xilinx programmable platforms that will give system designers FPGAs that consume half the power at twice the capacity than previously possible for addressing the Programmable Imperative. Xilinx is maximizing the value of the 28nm technology node by choosing a high-performance, low-power process technology, a common scalable architecture across product ranges, and tool innovations...
