Introduction
When high-energy ions present in space strike the substrate of an IC, their impact can cause momentary current/voltage pulses in the IC’s circuitry. When these pulses are sufficient to change the data on the circuit, they are referred to collectively as single-event effects (SEEs). Two subclasses of SEEs were of … Read More → "Single-Event Effect Mitigation in RTAX-DSP Space-Flight FPGAs"

FPGAs play a key role for early adopters of next-generation passive optical network (PON) systems due to their flexibility to allow development of future proof designs and implementation of unique features to differentiate against competitors versus standard products. Altera® Stratix® V FPGAs’ abundant resources, robust transceivers with native PON burst mode support, and fast external memory interfaces bring an unprecedented level of system integration. Altera further helps to lower system cost and power consumption via its seamless migration path from FPGAs to its HardCopy® series ASICs.
