How Open-Source Toolchains Secure the 30-Year Defense Supply Chain When procurement officers and system engineers select components for next-generation defense systems, they are not just looking at today’s technical benchmarks. They are planning decades into the future. Defense acquisition programs operate on timeline scales completely alien to the commercial silicon sector: a fighter jet, an […]
In the world of defense acquisition, flexibility is often viewed with some skepticism. While the strategic value of updating an algorithm in theater without a hardware re-spin is undeniable, defense programs are built on the bedrock of assurance, predictability, and configuration control. When a program office asks, “Can we control the bitstream and toolchain over […]
Read More… from Accreditation Without Compromise: Making eFPGA Assurable for Decades
When system design engineers evaluate the risks of choosing a particular supplier for FPGAs and eFPGAs, they often focus on traditional concerns such as supply chain issues, quality, and reliability. While these are certainly critical considerations, there are other, more subtle risks that are often overlooked but equally important. Let’s explore a few of these […]
Designers of aerospace and defense systems know that their applications are mission-critical and demand the highest levels of reliability, security, and performance. Adding embedded FPGA (eFPGA) technology to an ASIC or SoC for these applications dramatically increases adaptability and flexibility, but those desirable attributes can’t come at the expense of reliability, security or performance. That’s […]
Read More… from Why Choose Hard IP for Embedded FPGA in Aerospace and Defense Applications
Embedding FPGA technology into an ASIC or SoC has become popular for a wide variety of applications and markets, including those related to critical infrastructure, security, and defense. Engineers choose to integrate eFPGA IP into their SoCs for a number of reasons, including: Once someone has decided to move forward with an embedded FPGA design, […]
