1. FPGAs
Enabling Consumer Electronics – A Growing Trend
Today low-cost FPGAs are at the forefront of the process
curve with architectures implemented on 90nm process technology.
The relentless march down the process curve, coupled with increasing
yields on larger wafer sizes, has resulted in a dramatic decrease
in FPGA costs. More...

2. Revving
video encoding on C64x/DM64x DSPs
To avoid the huge cache-miss penalty and CPU stalling, the
algorithm can be broken into three loops, each of them a separate
module that fits into L1P. Instead of processing a single MB at
a time in each loop, the module processes n macroblocks-an MB strip.

3. Inside DSP on Digital
Video: Developing Software for a Digital Video Product
Software development for video applications presents many
of the same challenges as those found in other embedded signal processing
applications. High computational demands coupled with a need to
keep costs low in consumer products often mean that aggressive software
optimization is required. More...

4. Trust
designs, but verify, say panelists
Successful IC verification cannot be relegated to second
fiddle in the design orchestra. Not only independent independent
design and verification teams are required, but also a concurrent
design and verification development environment. More...

Custom SoC? Not That Hard When Most of It's Already Working
One of the tricks to high-speed communication is embedding
the clock signal within the data. Getting the clock back out and
using it to recover the data requires some careful design. More...
