‘Processor Architecture’
An Electronicstalk guide
Start with the news release
Data compression board reduces microprocessor load from
Comtech AHA, which we summarised at the time by saying "Comtech AHA has introduced its latest low-cost GZIP data compression board, the AHA360-PCle, which allows for reduced microprocessor load and lower power consumption than other solutions.".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Timing analysis tool addresses speed limitations from
Magma Design Automation: "Magma Design Automation has unveiled Tekton, a timing analysis platform that is claimed to offer higher capacity and faster runtimes than traditional tools, without sacrificing accuracy. ".
In March 2010, we covered the news from Corelis
- take a look at Scanexpress v7.0 supports Flexnet licensing
which says: "Corelis has announced the availability of version 7.0 of its Scanexpress boundary-scan tool suite.".
Take a look also at the news release from MSC Vertriebs, ETX platform based on dual-core D510 processor,
as well as DC/DC controller for automotive applications from Linear Technology,
and Interface Masters launches 10Gb switch family from Interface Masters Technologies.
