Optimize System Performance With FPGA/PCB Co-Design


Overview:

In the past, FPGAs were typically low density and low performance – used primarily as "glue" logic to piece together a system. Today, FPGAs are high density, high performance components – used to implement major system functionality.

Since the current trend is to use multiple FPGAs on a PCB, how do you effectively and efficiently integrate the two? New FPGA/PCB concurrent design processes and tools significantly improve system performance, product costs, and designer productivity. This session will discuss these new design approaches.

You Will Learn:

• Elements of an effective FPGA on-board strategy
• Specific implementation options
• How to boost productivity and PCB quality

Who Should Attend:

• System designers
• FPGA designers
• PCB designers
• Project managers
• Librarians involved in FPGA design

Speaker:

Bob Potock, director of FPGA Marketing for Mentor Graphics, Systems Design Division. Bob has been involved in board-based system and FPGA design throughout most of his career. Prior to joining Mentor Graphics, he held management positions in software/hardware engineering, marketing and field operations. He has over 15 years of engineering and marketing management experience working for companies such as AT&T Bell Labs, Intel, Unisys, VeriBest, Cadnetix and startup companies such as NeoCAD.
