A few weeks ago I was on a call with a one of the industrial architects at AMD Tomas Thoresen who mentioned he was working on a series of...

One of the things I really enjoy is creating image processing solutions as you might notice from the projects I publish on Hackster. My...

The peripherals we communicate with in embedded systems use a wide range of interfaces from I2C, UART, SPI to Gigabit ethernet and PCIe....

A few weeks ago, I outlined several beginner-friendly FPGA projects to help you get started with your chosen development language....

One of the main methods of increasing timing performance in our FPGA designs is to implement pipelining. At its heart, pipelining allows...

So far on our journey of exploring the Alveo V80 we have examined the hardware and software elements necessary for creating the AVED...

Last week, we looked at how we could create a baseline timing closure, which hopefully helps with achieving timing closure. Of course,...

In this blog series, we have looked at several AMD Versal devices from the Prime (VMK180) and AI Core series (VK190) to the AI Edge...

One of the projects we’ve been working on recently is the development of a custom K26 carrier board. This project is interesting because...

One of the nice things about writing this blog is that I get to take a look at many new FPGA and SoC boards. A few weeks ago, I received...

So far on this journey of exploring how we can use Alveo cards outside of the traditional flow we have examined creating the reference...

Over several weeks we have examined how we can use Alveo cards using a Vivado based design flow coupled with examining the XMDA drivers....

One of the things I’ve been doing recently is working with the Leonidas development board which we developed back in 2023. This board...

A few weeks ago, we looked at how to create a simple Versal system targeting the Trenz TE0950 development board which used the NOC to...

as we develop programmable logic-based solutions. We have two choices when doing this, either create a full IP XACT IP or just add the...

So far in this series, we have introduced the range of Alveo cards and created our first application, based on the standard card...

In our last blog we discussed an E Ink / ePaper driver that I had designed. Today we are going to discuss how to integrate it with a Zynq...

I remember being sat in the crowd at Xilinx Developer Forum 2018 (XDF18) when Xilinx CEO, Victor Peng announced upcoming Alveo PCIe based...

Readers of this blog will know I am a big supporter of system on modules (SoM). From the MicroZed to the UltraZed, Snickerdoodle and of...

In September 2013, I was about to start a new role, as head of electronics at a space imaging developer when what should arrive in the...
