In recent years, FPGAs (field-programmable gate arrays) have become increasingly attractive as signal processing engines, sometimes used alone and sometimes in conjunction with a processor chip. The ...

FPGAs can provide a fast, cost effective solution to many of today's complex demands for DSP functionality. However, many DSP engineers have traditionally focused on software, and may not know where ...

Over a third of FPGA users now integrate some form of digital signal processing (DSP) into their devices and this percentage is growing, according to Xilinx. And the DSP benchmarking company, BDTI, ...

In considering the design option for DSP vs. FPGA it is helpful to compare both architectures in a FIR filter application, writes Reg Zatrepalek One of the most widely used digital signal-processing ...

Typically, DSP designers are unfamiliar with FPGA design tools, and FPGA designers are unfamiliar with DSP algorithms. But when Sandia National Laboratories needed to replace an analog implementation ...

Many computationally intensive DSP applications can take advantage of a specialized compute array tuned for the task at hand. This method runs rings around a commercial DSP solution. Or, such an array ...

In the next five years, there will be more wireless and digital communication standards, pervasive computing and widespread availability of data on the move. The growing requirements for processing ...

Flex Logix Technologies, a supplier of reconfigurable computing solutions, architecture and software, and CEVA, a licensor of wireless, sensing and integrated IP solutions, have announced the first ...
