Actel will showcase the newly introduced SmartFusion(TM) intelligent mixed signal FPGAs and attendees can see a live demo of the SmartFusion Evaluation Kit.

Actel will demonstrate the following:

  • Motor control development kit in action with multiple controls
  • Keil™ and IAR Systems® design environments to support innovative design flows
  • Graphical power management and xTCA™ design hardware implementation

Don’t miss the Sony® Reader Teardown Sponsored by Actel

Date: Tuesday, June 8 Time: 4:30 p.m. – 5:20 p.m. CDT

Location: ESC Theater

The need to bring e-readers to market quickly compels designers to taking advantage of the latest design tools, tricks, ICs and software, including a programmable logic device that lets the designers add and remove features very quickly. In this live teardown of a Sony PRS-300 Reader, attendees will see how the design team attacked the challenge. At the end of the presentation, the disassembled unit will be given away to a lucky attendee.

Quickly and accurately identify inter-domain leakage issues in IC designs

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Power domain leakage is a major IC reliability issue, often missed by traditional tools. This white paper describes challenges of identifying leakage, types of false results, and presents Siemens EDA’s Insight Analyzer. The tool proactively finds true leakage paths, filters out false positives, and helps circuit designers quickly fix risks—enabling more robust, reliable chip designs. With detailed, context-aware analysis, designers save time and improve silicon quality.
