In these rare days when getting a development board with a new FPGA is increasingly difficult, a new board has come into my hands. The board is the Icicle Kit, a Single Board Computer (SBC) from Microchip Technology. It is…
Few weeks ago Dialog Semiconductor announced a new series of FPGAs named as ForgeFPGA. The highlight of these new devices are not a high processing power, the highest speed or the big they are, the main highlights of these devices…
In this blog we talked (a little) about the xDMA IP from Xilinx, and how to send and receive data through PCI using an FPGA. In that occasion we used the Picozed board with the FMC Carrier gen 2. This…
In this blog we already talk about Pynq and how it can help us to develop some applications in a easy way. Obviously, Pynq has its limitations but it still being a powerful tool with we can develop projects in…
Several years ago, electronic designs began to feature System on a Chip (SoC) technology. This technology is an excellent choice for designs that require a higher integration or a reduction in Bill of Materials (BOM) cost. On this blog we…
Many times, developers who want to take their first steps in the world of the FPGAs ask me about a development board which begin to test their first designs. From the newie point of view, I understand that see a…
Devices like Xilinx Zynq or Microchip PolarFire give us the possibility to mix in a single design a high level OS like Linux and a fast device like FPGA. For signal processing, or even data science, is very interesting to…
This post will be different from what I usually write. In general, in my posts, I talk about low-level algorithms and FPGA implementations to do digital signal processing, but this time I will use software to configure an specific purpose…
Few month ago, I decided to design my own FPGA development board. The main reason for that was simply learn to do it, because I have design a lot o boards for peripherals, PMODs, or other projects, but never one…
When I started to investigate about signal processing, what made me feel happier was decode a signal that, apparently, has no sense. Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) turns something meaningless into something meaningful. That is amazing but, if we are looking…
