We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "FPGA technology", 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 FPGA expansion targets networking niche from Xilinx, which we summarised at the time by saying "New devices will enable new levels of cost-optimisation for industrial networking, medical imaging, motor control, defence and high-performance computing applications". A few weeks before, we featured the news release IP library gets the measure of FPGA design from National Instruments: "Suite of software and hardware intellectual property simplifies the use of FPGAs in measurement, control and signal processing applications".
 
In October 2007, we covered the news from Zuken concerning its Cadstar FPGA - take a look at Software partnership aids FPGA simulation which says: "Cadstar FPGA technology is structured on integration of FPGA design within the PCB layout".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Actel Europe, FPGAs suit portable applications, as well as Flash-based FPGAs qualify under the bonnet from Actel Europe, and Low-cost FPGAs accelerate time to market from Altera Europe.
