Whether engineer, hobbyist, or maker, we've happily watched as chipmakers and third parties alike have come to their senses in recent years and cooked up a smorgasbord (smorgasboard?) of low-cost ...
Programmable logic tech like Field Programmable Gate Arrays, also known as FPGAs, is a must-have toolkit for any modern circuit designer. Thanks to their expansive capabilities, these components are ...
Hackaday brought you a first look the Arduino MKR Vidor 4000 when it announced. Arduino sent over one of the first boards so now we finally have our hands on one! It’s early and the documentation is ...
TinyFPGA boards offer an inexpensive way for ‘microcontroller jockeys’ to get an introduction to the world of FPGAs TinyFPGA boards offer an inexpensive way for ‘microcontroller jockeys’ to get an ...
This month, new add-on boards supported by the Raspberry Pi and BeagleBone Black have been launched in the form of Newark Element14’s new ValentFX Logi-Pi and Logi-Bone FPGA boards. The new boards ...
The flexibility of field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) allows them to be used for applications ranging from network packet processing to signal processing, where custom ICs can’t keep up with ...
The Rasberry Pi Zero is a delightful form factor, with its GIPO and USB and HDMI, but it’s stuck using the same old ARM processor all the time. What if you wanted to change it up with some OpenSPARC, ...
Adafruit has announced the arrival of a new open source programmable FPGA development board in the form of the Fomu ICE40. Offering 28 kilobytes of RAM and a large amount of storage, the small develop ...
Readily available off-the-shelf FPGA boards for ASIC prototyping brought significant advantages for SoC designers, yet there are many inherent challenges. A designer may have many reasonably priced ...
