Smarter ASICs and SoCs: Unlocking Real-World Connectivity with eFPGA and Data Converters

Data converters are the gateways that connect the real (analog) world to the digital world. They are available as discrete devices, integrated into microcontrollers and FPGAs as well as licensable intellectual property (IP) in nearly all popular foundry process nodes.    With the explosion of AI processing at the edge and the rising cost of […]

How Your Tiny Design Can Help Solve a Giant Problem

Climat Change Banner

Scientists in multiple fields and geographies around the globe have identified climate change as one of the world’s most pressing issues. As the earth warms, we will all be affected, some more so than others. This challenge is so large and widespread that there isn’t a single solution. Instead, we need a lot of bright […]

Nordic Blog on SensiML Adding Real-Time Intelligence to Sensors

Nordic published a great blog today describing how SensiML adds real-time intelligence to sensors by offering machine learning out-of-the-box, extracting data values without hiring teams of data scientists, and easy generation of machine learning algorithms. The author also describes how SensiML can run locally on the Nordic nRF52, and is looking at future support for […]

ASICS versus FPGAs versus ASICs with eFPGA Technology

I am often asked about the differences between ASICs, FPGAs, and ASIC-with-embedded FPGA (eFPGA) blocks and so I thought I would devote a blog article to that topic. Here goes… Once upon a time, there were ASICs (“Application Specific Integrated Circuits”, for the uninitiated). These were (and are) semiconductor devices designed to implement a very […]
