Abstract: Communication with 1-Wire slave devices requires a 1-Wire master. There are numerous ways to build a 1-Wire master (see reference design 4206, "Choosing the Right 1-Wire Master for Embedded Applications"). Thisdocument describes the DS1WM, a synthesizable 1-Wire master that can be implem ...
Abstract: Field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) are used in a wide variety of applications and end markets, including digital signalprocessing, medical imaging, and high-performance computing. This application note outlines the issues related to powering FPGAs.It also discusses Maxim's soluti ...
We all know the benefits of using FieldProgrammable Gate Arrays (FPGAs): no NRE, nominimum order quantities, and faster time-tomarket.In an ideal world, designs would never needto be changed because of design errors, but we allknow that sometimes this is necessary.
Abstract: Designers who must interface 1-Wire temperature sensors with Xilinx field-programmable gate arrays(FPGAs) can use this reference design to drive a DS28EA00 1-Wire slave device. The downloadable softwarementioned in this document can also be used as a starting point to connect other 1-Wir ...
The introduction of Spartan-3™ devices has createdmultiple changes in the evolution of embedded controldesigns and pushed processing capabilities to the “almostfreestage.” With these new FPGAs falling under $20, involume, with over 1 million system gates, and under $5for ...
Xilinx Next Generation 28 nm FPGA Technology Overview
Xilinx has chosen 28 nm high-κ metal gate (HKMG) highperformance,low-power process technology and combined it with a new unified ASMBL™ architecture to create a new generation of FPGAs that offer lower power and higher performance. ...
In this paper, we discuss efficient coding and design styles using verilog. This can beimmensely helpful for any digital designer initiating designs. Here, we address different problems rangingfrom RTL-Gate Level simulation mismatch to race conditions in writing behavioral models. All the ...
Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are becoming a critical part of every system design. Many vendors offer many different architectures and processes. Which one is right for your design? How do you design one of these so that it works correctly and functions as you expect in your entire system ...
In most software-development organizations, the testing program functions as the
final "quality gate" for an application, allowing or preventing the move from the
comfort of the software-engineering environment into the real world. With this role
comes a large responsibility: The success of an appli ...
