OptNgn Delivers 2D-FFT FPGA Library Elements for use in Imaging and DSP applications

Portland, Oregon: September 22, 2010 — At processing rates of up to 306 mega complex pixels per second, the new OptNgn 2D-FFT library elements are the perfect choice for inexpensive, low power sensor data stream processing of convolution and filtering-based applications from video, medical, radar/sonar, and scientific-based real-time sources.

2D-FFT Usage and Examples

The library elements, can process thousands of frames per second, which makes them particularly useful in convolution coprocessor based object finding, such as a streaming FFT-Filter-IFFT component that finds matches between the input stream and a target object library.

About the Library

These FFT library are delivered either individually as instantly downloadable  and are high throughput complex 2-dimensional FFT instances, with 2-power dimension sizes, tuned for use inside FPGAs.  Each element is instantly available now, via web download.

See our screen cast: . http://youtu.be/1VGaHWh9H8Q?hd=1 for a short video introduction.

Benefits

These elements can supply image processing horsepower previously only reserved for the fastest CPUs.  Be the first to embed these powerful operators into your inexpensive, low power embedded systems, with an FPGA component.

Individual  FFT Library elements are priced from $75-$800, as InstaIP Xilinx and Altera netlists, while the Mentor Graphics Precision elements are delivered as Precise-Encrypt RTL, which allows for mapping to any FPGA families supported by the Mentor Precision Synthesis toolkit.

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.
