We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "FPGA design",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release VMEbus board provides serial resources from
Pentek, which we summarised at the time by saying "Pentek's Model 4207board brings to designers power, speed and connectivity in a single-slot solution".
Earlier in the week,
we featured the news release Software receives FPGA optimisation from
Synplicity: "Synplify Premier 9.0 gives users accurate timing information and insight into debug performance-related issues immediately after synthesis".
In December 2007, we covered the news from Pentek
concerning its Model 7141
- take a look at ADCs and FPGA enhance multiband transceiver
which says: "Pentek has significantly boosted analogue performance in the Model 7141 so that the signal-to-noise ratio and the spurious free dynamic range are improved".
Take a look also at the news release from Zuken, PCB package promises more first-time success,
as well as Design environment helps cut power consumption from Actel Europe,
and FPGA synthesis accepts VHDL and Verilog from Mentor Graphics UK.
