It's about time: Xilinx FPGA with embedded ARM cpu
- coderdude 17y agohttp://www.xilinx.com/technology/roadmap/processing-platform.htm http://www.xilinx.com/technology/roadmap/processing-platform... Here's a link to Xilinx where they talk more about this. It still baffles me that news outlets can't figure out what bloggers have known since day one: Link to the relevant parties.
- wmf 17y agoI agree, but consider that MSM journalists are probably writing stories based on embargoed press releases, so the relevant Web sites are not available when the stories are written.
- sp332 17y agoI still prefer a Xilinx FPGA embedded in a Cray XD1! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cray_XD1 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cray_XD1
- meastham 17y agoThey've been doing this with PowerPC CPUs for a while now.
- sketerpot 17y agoI haven't seen any with PowerPC processors nearly as fancy as the dual-core 800 MHz Cortex-A9 they're putting in these new FPGAs, though. The fact that they're building the whole thing in 28 nm technology also kicks ass. This thing is a beast.
- sadiq 17y agoA big problem with Xilinx/Altera FPGAs is how closed and expensive developing for them can be. I still shiver when I think about the times I spent with WebPack.
- blackguardx 17y agoA bigger problem is how awful the development tools are.
